I am 11 months post partum and things are generally good. I def had some postpartum depression but most of it is gone except ever since I had the baby I think so much about what's going to happen the next 20 years and so on and I think about our mortality. Like not about harming anyone just about how short life is and just always feeling almost like I already know the "ending" to life. I never thought about this before, is this a natural thing with becoming a new parent or is it a postnatal depression symptom still?
I'm already pretty much back to normal in terms of work, exercise, friends and have plenty of other parents for support. But almost everyday I think about growing old and about dying and it doesn't make me upset it's just not a nice way to end the day. Did anyone go through the same and does it go away on its own or should I try to address it more directly?
