DD is about to turn 6 months and I've just diagnosed myself with PND. I have suffered with depression twice in the past so I recognise the symptoms. Previously antidepressants have done nothing for me and I want to avoid them. I also found going to the GP useless both times. I'd like to try helping myself with (e.g.) exercise and healthy eating first, and then maybe try counselling if that doesn't work.
So as not to drip feed, I'm still on mat leave, going back in January part-time; my partner is very supportive but I haven't told him yet - I've only just admitted it to myself. I will try to discuss it with him later. (I find it very hard to talk about things like this.)
Any other ideas, tips or advice would be very welcome. Feeling a bit lost and hopeless at the moment. Thank you.
