Postpartum psychosis is a psychotic disorder that usually occurs in women who have recently delivered a baby. The syndrome is often characterized by the mother's depression, delusions, and thoughts of harming either herself or her infant. Postpartum psychosis in a male is however rarely observed. Hereby, we present this unusual case of 27-year-old male who developed psychosis just after the birth of his first child.
