Postpartum

I know what you mean and I’m sorry you’re going through this. I was diagnosed with PPD when mine was a year old. It feels like you’re just sad a lot of the time. You get a feeling of hopelessness and you have no desire to do any of the things you used to like doing. It feels like nothing good will ever happen in the future and that I’ll never feel happy again. That’s how I felt anyway. I get waves of it every now and then but I feel as though if you’re more happy than sad then you’re ok. If you’re not sure, you could speak to a GP. My PPD came with anger and aggression towards my baby so I knew I had to seek help. Best of luck :)

I would say it sounds like ppd and so talking to a professional is your best bet to try and get through it faster. They can offer a range of help from talking therapy to medication and I'm sure there's more options out there. You're an amazing mama and you're much stronger than you realise you got this!

There is no specifics because everybody experiences it in different ways. I had it but mine was a chaotic presentation so I was doing absolutely everything and never let myself sit down and rest. That's why it's best to talk to your gp if your in the UK and get an assessment. I hope you feel better soon!
