I'm a first time mom at 21. Had depression for years and struggle with ADHD. I haven't taken my ADHD meds since I found out I was pregnant but now my son is 3 months old and I really need some advice. ADHD makes it so I get overwhelmed easily and then my depression leads me to shut down rather than deal with it. But it's becoming a problem. I WANT to clean. I WANT to cook. But I can't find the motivation to keep going. I shut down and literally just end up slumping down to the floor and sitting there. My marriage is suffering, but I don't know how to deal with it. Any advice?

might be time to consider going back on meds again or if that's too much right now maybe find a yoga class where you can spend some quiet time and also learn breathing and relaxation techniques meditation can be very helpful with ADHD and depression

Meds are so helpful for my boyfriend, who is a k-2 teacher and a dad to 4 (almost 5) kids. Take it easy. Have one or two goals a day. Don't overload yourself.
