Right. I have been to the doctors today...I do have PND. I will spare everyone all the gory details, but I have really been struggling. Spending hours at a time crying, and other much darker stuff that I won't go into. I have been prescribed anti depressants and offered counselling which I'm thinking about whether or not I think will be beneficial. The worst thing about it all is that I feel I haven't properly bonded with Edward, I've been feeling more like caring for him is a chore, rather than wanting to do it out of love. I'm hoping now that I will be happy again and able to enjoy him.
I wasn't going to mention anything, but I think it's important that people speak about things like this so others in the same situation know that it's okay, and that if they ask for help they will get it. Also, thanks to Max for PMing me with advice and support
Lucia- it does sound like Vinnie might have reflux. It could be silent reflux, where they have all other reflux symptoms without actually being sick. Google it if you want more info.
Gill- Don't worry about the it will get less scary with time xx
Am very glad you had an understanding GP and now you can get onto the road of recovery...
Give counselling a go, I know when I suffered from anxiety, talking about the things that made me anxious, made me realise how I could beat the anxiety by not letting these things invade my every thought!! It takes time, but you'll make it...standing up and seeking help is probably the scariest bit, so you should be very proud of yourself xx
And we're all here if you need to unload anything
