does postpartum depression ever get easier? i know i have it and tried getting help from my obgyn and she told me to talk to my daughters doctors so I did and my mom went with cause it was my daughters first set of shots. my mom doesnt believe in postpartum depression so when i said something to her doctor my mom said it was just stress and the doctor listened to her instead of me. I'm looking for a new doctor currently because its gotten to the point that i feel like harming myself and have thought about suicide a couple times but i can usually talk myself out of it cause i think about my daughter growing up without a mom and how heartbreaking that is.
