ETX doctor, patient offer signs, advice for post-partum depression

TYLER, TEXAS (KLTV)- Many women suffer from Post-Partum depression after they have a baby, and it can be hard for a woman to know whether her baby blues really do equal depression.

"I mean, I knew I wasn't feeling myself, but am I supposed to feel myself after I have this new addition?" said Jessica Taylor-Diller, who gave birth to her daughter six years ago. "I mean, I was also a single mother, so it was, it made it even harder. So I didn't know how it was supposed to be, especially since it was my first."

Jessica Taylor-Diller's daughter was more than six months old before Jessica was diagnosed with Post-Partum depression.

"One day I just told my doctor I wasn't feeling right. I was feeling depressed and down and I couldn't breathe too well, actually. It was my anxiety that was kicking in," she said.

Viewer submitted recipe: Seafood Stroganoff

Viewer submitted recipe: Seafood Stroganoff

From our KLTV cookbook called "Proud of East Texas," (what else?) comes a recipe for a quick seafood dinner.

The recipe was submitted in the 1998 by Diana Conine of Tyler. It sounds pretty simple, delicious, and quick:

Seafood Stroganoff:

1 pound shrimp, crawfish tails, or scallops (or a combination)
1 bunch of green onions, sliced (tops included)
1 stick of butter (ed. note: or a healthy Omega-3 butter blend, like Smart Balance)
4 TBS flour
2 TBS garlic powder (or to taste)
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced (ed. note: you can buy these pre-sliced to save time)
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 tsp creole seasoning (any brand you like)
1/2 cup vermouth (optional, but definitely adds better flavor) (ed. note: white wine could be substituted if no vermouth on hand)
1 16 oz. carton of sour cream. (ed. note: light sour cream will cut fat and calories and still be creamy and delicious!)

Peel and devein shrimp, if necessary.
