I was diagnosed with PND a couple of months ago, and offered AD's (Cipramil). Anyway, I've managed not to take them yet, as DH has been on school holiday (teacher) so I've been getting more sleep and breaks during the day as well. I was wondering at the time if it was just pure exhaustion (I am BF so do all the night wakings).
Thing is, I've started to get worse again this past week. Couldn't get back to sleep this morning at 1am after feeding DD, and just ended up crying and crying. I had a bad birth and my body is pretty much ruined, which doesn't help.
Is it possible for PND to come and go like that, or do you think I'm just tired? Also does anyone know how bad the side-effects from Cipramil are? I'm scared to take it in case it either makes me worse or messes with my head so I can't do my job when I go back in October.
