Think I have PPD--finally got the nerve to call Dr. and they aren't open!

I've never posted here--but I need someone to talk to.

Just can't stop crying. Finally got the nerve to discuss w/ dh about how I've been feeling, truly, and I decided I need professional help.
So, I got the nerve up to call a therapist that specializes in PPD, and she is closed till Wed. UGH! I just feel like my depression and anxiety gets worse and worse everyday, but I guess 2 more days won't hurt anything...but then how long to get an apptl....just don't know.

I do not like my previous OB---but should I call him?

It's so hard to feel that way, especially when we have little ones to take care of.

How do you feel? Do you feel like you can wait til Weds or do you feel like you need help sooner?

Sometimes it helps just to talk (or write) about things and it could help you hold on a little longer til you get the help you need.

In the short term, you could get some b vitamins and fish oil capsules. Might help. If you can get the kind of b vitamin that dissolves under your tongue, that would be good.

How old is your little one? How long have you been feeling this way?

What luck. Your finally ready to reach out for help, and there is a closed door. Im sorry that happened. Please keep the courage and seek help when they are open again. I know it takes courage to ask for help. Hang in there...
