Still Struggling

[SpiralChrissy]

Hi. My name's Chrissy. I'm new here. I've been on some other PPD forms and thought I'd reach out here as well. I'm learning a lot just reading your postings. My son was born almost 8months ago and the PPD is still lingering on. I've had a hard time with anxiety and panic attacks. I'm on my 4th round of meds. The anxiety seems to have diminished but I'm terribly depressed again. I can feel o.k. from time to time but then the bad feelings always return. It's terrible. I have a really hard time getting thru the day sometimes. Today's hard, although, I don't exactly know why. I'm a stay-at-home mom who loves her baby. I just want to feel better some how. I'm hoping y'all have some suggestions for. I'm ready for help!

I just have a second but wanted to tell you that I understand. My meds don't always work with my depression. I've noticed that what I eat really contributes to how I feel but you probably already know that. I'm sure you'll get lots of good help here!

no advice, just

Eating well and regular exercise are supposed to make a big difference. I say "supposed to" because I am not doing it.

I have been planting my garden and that makes me feel good. It gets me outside in the sunshine and fresh air.
