"It's something a lot of women experience," she said. "You think it's 'I feel negative feelings towards my child, I want to injure or hurt my child.' I've never, ever had those feelings. Some women do.
"But you don't realise how broad a spectrum you can really experience that on. It's something that needs to be talked about. Women need to know that they're not alone, and that it does heal."
Hayden played Juliette Barnes in the ABC series Nashville. Her character also suffered postnatal depression.
