She makes an analogy to cancer and asks if she would ignore that disease? She tells Robin that she needs help now.
Patrick goes to The Metro Court to talk to Carly about PPD. She asks what she can do for him, but all he asks for is her perspective as a survivor. They sit down and she shares her own experience. She says how terrifying it was to not even want to touch her infant and says that's why she took off. She says that she couldn't have gotten through it if not for Jason who took Michael's care over.
