So it's been almost a year & I'm afraid to go to the doctor & tell them that I may have PPD. But the syntoms are all there...I don't want to lose my loving boyfriend bc I can tell he's tires of me & my mood swings & emotional drama. Idk, I just don't want to be labeled anything & become a statistic. What should I do?

you should talk to a doctor. your bf will probably see you're trying to get help, and be willing to stick it out as he sees you improving. you're not a statistic, you're a normal women, it's ok to need help sometimes.

I'd rather get help and labeled a stat than not get help and lose my mind along with family or friends.

You are absolutely not a statistic. I had PPD for the first 4 months and still have it a little bit now at 8 months. PPD is nothing to be ashamed about and it's sad a lot of people and even society makes it to be something it's not. You need to speak to your doctor though as it can just progressively get worse. I had severe anxiety and depression before pregnancy so my OB knew what to ask and how to have me tell her how I was really feeling. A happy momma means a happy baby. Always remember that it's okay to not feel okay ❤️

No matter what you do in life, you are statistic. Do not wait any longer to get help. Don't be afraid to help yourself.
