Feeling alone, postnatal depression and a break up.
Iv recently been diagnosed with moderate to severe postnatal depression and have also just split up with my baby’s dad. Due to many things but mostly he doesn’t seem to understand why I “feel and act” the way I do and to be honest I don’t know myself. I never experienced these feelings with any of my other pregnancies. My mood is all over the place. I know it’s normal to be feeling these “sad” emotions as any break up isn’t easy. But iv never experienced Postnatal depression and a break up and I feel like my mind and emotions are on overdrive. Any advice/support is welcome. 🙏

@Kamilla they have started me on fluoxetine 20mg and the plan is to increase it. I’m sorry you’re going through it too! It’s the most horrific feeling in the world and can be so isolating too. I hope you manage to get it switched and you start to feel better soon; my inbox is always open. 💞

No advice unfortunately, as struggling with postnatal depression myself. I can only imagine how hard it must be for you going through a break up at the same time. Are you on any medication ? I m on Setraline and it’s not helping much, the doctor recommended to switch to another one. May be you could try this too. Sending lots of love 💕
