When Theo was three-years-old, Howard opened up about dealing with postpartum depression after her son's birth on Gwyneth Paltrow's GOOP blog.

"I felt I was failing at breast feeding. My house was a mess. I believed I was a terrible dog owner. I was certain I was an awful actress," the actress revealed in 2010.

With the support of family and friends, Howard sought professional treatment. She also read Brooke Shields' Down Came the Rain, which she described as "a revelation."

"Do I wish I had never endured postpartum depression? Absolutely," wrote Howard. "I…feel deep gratitude for those who stood by me, for the lesson that we must never be afraid to ask for help."
