I think I'm struggling with PPD. My daughter is 4months old In a few days and I have been fine but this last week I've been so alone like I have people around me just feel so alone. People come to visit.... But it's always to see my baby never see how I am.. I feel so alone And my husband doesn't understand... He's been great but I've just been balling my eyes out the last few daysđđ I feel so overwhelmed and out of control with my emotions. Help.

Girl! I know the feeling and you are not alone, I felt the same way for a couple of days but it went away, try to do some self care, talk to your husband and try to give yourself sometime to reconnect. Itâs hard I know, no one seems to understand what you are going thru right now

I struggle too. PPD is so rough. I find it hard to see myself as a separate person with individual needs because I'm always taking care of the babies. I remind myself this time period is temporary and even though I'll be so relieved when it's over, I will miss certain things about it. I started a gratitude journal, I'm hoping it helps me shift my mindset. I hope you can find ways to cope and I hope you remember to prioritize yourself. Put your oxygen mask on first. đ€

I was about 3 or 4 weeks pp when I hit the point I knew what I was feeling wasnât just baby blues. Iâm now 3 months and a bit pp and on a 2-in-1 medication for depression and anxiety and am in therapy. There are still hard days but they donât feel so hard I feel like I canât cope or function and I have more good days then bad nowâ€ïž You know your mental health the best so if you feel you need help talk to your doctor, if you want to wait a few days to see thatâs completely fine too
