People have no idea sometimes, as if you choose to be depressed. Its not about not being happy about being a mum, or not liking your children, its a chemical imbalance and not you!! You have been through this before so you will recognise the signs. Please talk to your HV or dr, they can help you. It is so important that you do talk to someone but I completely understand how scary this can be. PM me if you need to chat.
If you are feeling depressed now, my advice would be to go and talk to your GP. The response your hubby gave you is very common, people just don't understand. The earlier you seek support, the better it is.
loop huge hugs to you hun, you need to speak to a gp or youe health visitor as well as your oh, he will understand depression is an illness, but first you need to ask for the help you need, please dont suffer alone, there are great people out there who can help you through this, but only you can make the 1st step towards getting better
me too! and eversince I started to take the pill again I started to feel worse! I take yasmin and I looked up the package leaflet but it said nothing specific on the influence on PND, but, just to be on the safe side, I'm going to stop taking it for a while...
