"I do feel and hope it's made other people's lives better and more of an understanding because postpartum depression was not something that I ever understood," Panettiere said at the awards show about going public with her struggle.

"You could never understand it unless you have a personal involvement with it.

"I didn't realize how much of a stigma it had about it," she said.

Panettiere also thanked her fans for their unwavering support as she went through the difficult time.

"I was floored by the positive response and really happy I could stand up for the women who are out there suffering from this and let them know it's OK, they're not alone," she said.

"It doesn't mean they're weak

"It doesn't mean they're a bad mom.

"It doesn't mean they're strange and that they could get help if they need it."
