Depressed

I’ve been depressed most of my life but this post partum depression has been different, all I truly care about is taking care of my 8mon old and sleeping. I need a group to talk to.. someone who can check up on me or go in a walk

This hits me hard! Same here. Basically a decade on anti depressants, hit the worst PPD, work stress. All i wanted to do was cry, sleep or die. Went on for a while until I was able to het in to see my old psychiatrist. Made it all the way to 300mg effexor SR, baby is now about to turn 3 and now I am starting a slow weaning down. In 6 months time, I will start the next reduced dose

Baby Daddy 😒

My baby daddy hasn’t been apart of my pregnancy. We were previously together and then he broke up with me when I was still newly pregnant. He is upset because I have picked the name and I am choosing to hyphenate the last name. I am not sure if I want him at the birth, not because I don’t want him there, but because I don’t want the stress and continuing non support while I’m in the middle of bringing a life into the world. Am I wrong ? I am 30 weeks today & I am working on my birth plan, as it stands, it explicitly states that he isn’t to be there until after baby. But I don’t want to hurt him or regret it in the long run. But I feel like L&D is stressful enough without him adding to it. What do I do?

Feeling alone

This is my first pregnancy and I’m starting to get worried about how I’ll be postpartum. I have an amazing husband who honestly is the best support and person I could ask for.
I just don’t have any friends. I’ve not had any friends for about 5 years so only have my husband to hang out with but don’t want to suffocate him.
I’ve been fine not having any girl friends generally as I’ve been at work to have other people to talk to but now I’ve finished work I’m already feeling very low and worried how I’ll be postpartum when it’s just me.
Sorry for the rant but looking for some advice :)

Heyy

Anyone available to chat every day? Someone who genuinely enjoys talking and doesn’t always wait for me to text first. I want a friendship with mutual effort, not just hi and hello.

Adult friendships

I know I see others venting about this often and I’m just so frustrated. Why is it so hard to make adult friends???
