Ppd sucks
I hate this. I hate feeling like I hate being a mom. I hate feeling like I hate being married and not being able to what I want when I want. I hate feeling like my husband can. I hate feeling like a failure because I cant do anything right. I hate this depression and anxiety that doesnt let me leave my kids at home with their dad because they cried a little. I hate this and it's making me start to hate myself. I hate that even though I now own my home and that my kids have their own space that I still have failed them because it needs work and appliances. (We have some countertop cooking appliances until we can afford real appliances.)

Are you on any type of birth control? After my first I got PPD really bad and was also on Zoloft. But I had gotten the mirena placed and was having other issues with it and got it taken out and within the month my PPD went away completely.
Just a thought!!!
I'm sorry you're dealing with this. It truly is awful.

I was on Zoloft but my new dr wont see me until March. I'm searching for a different dr but not many take my insurance.

I'm sorry you're feeling like that! I went through a very similar experience a couple months after I had my first son with my dh. All I can say is eventually it will get better! Take a little time here and there you to do something you enjoy! I didn't and spent the first 10 months in a downward spiral and ended up eating my feelings away. Then when I realized what I had done made everything worse!
Try to find someone you can talk to even if it's just a friend or someone who can relate. Keep your head up lovely
