My daughter is 16 months now and I was diagnosed with PPD when I was 27weeks pregnant which came about because the doctor found she had a heart arrhythmia and I felt like I had failed my daughter. I have been of and on antidepressants since then because I felt better and thought I didn't need them anymore and would start them again and quit again but now this time I feel like I don't even care if I love her. I'm sure I messed my head up when I kept stopping and starting like that but I didn't want to depend on a pill to make me happy. Anyway, I look at her and feel nothing and I hate it because I know I did before and I feel like maybe I've messed up the chance of loving her again. The future seems hopeless and I feel like I couldn't care less this time and I hate it. What should I do?
