I was diagnosed with PPD as well. I am taking medication as well. I try to get out every day. Maybe walk. The medication is helping more. I take 2 different medications. But it helps to feel less dark mentally.

I’m currently going through the same thing with anxiety and depression. I’m under the perinatal mental health team who have been fantastic. Are they available in your area? I’m also taking medication, now on the highest amount and don’t feel they are doing much (I will add it was a GP that put me on these and not the Perinatal team). Xx
I struggled so bad with it. I’m 16 months in now and it’s better but I still have bad days. Please open up to people, let people help and allow people to see how vulnerable you are it’s really bloody hard. I’m in Barnsley so please feel free to ask me anything. I’m not too far away. Congratulations on your baby xxx
