A psychоlоgist wоke up in the middle of the night аnd took her 6-month-old bаby for а drive. She proceeded to intentionally drive her vehicle off the road at highway speeds, rolled the vehicle, and attempted to drown both herself and her baby in the adjacent river. Emergency personnel arrived on the scene after being notified by a passerby, and both mother and baby were stabilized and transported to the hospital. Law enforcement found a note in the vehicle, in which the mother expressed that, after doing her research, she believed her baby had reactive attachment disorder. She wrote that, based on her clinical experience, she expected the baby to have a life of “misery and pain” and to likely be institutionalized. She also wrote in the letter, apparently to her husband, that she was killing herself because she had done nothing but caused him pain and been selfish, and that he should move on with his life. Her husband reports that his wife had seemed fine until almost one month after the baby’s birth, at which time she started to demonstrate sadness, indecisiveness, decreased energy, poor appetite, and doubts about her parenting abilities. He states that she had continued to be responsive to the baby’s needs, in spite of her depressive symptoms. Which of the following is the most likely DSM-5-TR diagnosis?
