After Adoption: Grief vs. Depression and Understanding the Difference

It’s important to be able to tell the difference between grief and depression after your child has gone home with their adoptive family. Grief is expected and will eventually subside, but depression is something that needs serious attention. If you need immediate support, please call 1-800-ADOPTION now – someone will be there to listen. Experiencing challenging emotions when placing your baby for adoption is perfectly normal because it is a difficult decision to make, even if it’s what’s best for your baby. Adoption is a sacrifice that sets your child up to receive all of the opportunities that he or she deserves, but it’s going to come at an emotional cost to you. In fact, choosing adoption for your child may come with a grief and loss process that, initially, can be very intense. This is okay, and it’s totally normal.
