I would like to post this for all the girls experiencing PPD...
When I was suffering the worst from PPD, I found a chat board for women who were experiencing PPD. It REALLY helped. So I thought I would pass it on to you girls. I encourage you to read the boards, post on them and don't stop talking about how you're feeling. Don't be ashamed or afraid of what people will think. I battled feelings of suicide and other horrible things, and the more I talked about it, the better I felt. You will move past this, and things will get better. I hope you all know that you have my complete support, as well as all the other moms here.

Re: I would like to post this for all the girls experiencing PPD...
Thank you Rachel for posting this. I totally agree that talking things out is the way to go. It helps so much more than you'll realize until you actually do it.
This got me thinking, with all the ppd posts recently, if there's enough interest, I'm thinking about offering a ppd group at my practice. Maybe that would make taking that step into counseling easier for some knowing that it would be with other ladies from LIF. FM if you're interested.
If not, and like Rachel said, keep on talking..we're all here for you.

Thanks for posting this. After I admitted that i wasn't feeling as great as I wanted to, I started to feel better knowing many of you have gone through the same thing. I may not be out of the woods yet, but I feel less alone after talking to you ladies.

Thank you for posting!
I have a wonderful communication with DH. I can tell him anything and he cares and will do something about it. I have learned that you need to talk about what bothers you.
It's very important to be able to recognize when something is "not right" and tell someone before it's too late.

Re: I would like to post this for all the girls experiencing PPD...
Thanks for posting this! It is very helpful.
I'd also like to add if you think you have PPD, see your doctor! You might have it or another condition that mimics it. In my case, she found I had a thyroid problem and also lupus. So that was causing my extreme fatigue and depression. But it certainly could have been PPD too. It's good to check out all possibilities!
It took about half an hour too. So go to your doctor if you think something is wrong. There is no reason to suffer from this--all conditions listed above are very treatable.
