So I've posted before about not feeling right and possible PND and its only got worse. The drs have basically dismissed me as I'm not suffering enough in her words, dont meet requirements for perinatal team, cant have medication because I'm breastfeeding according to the dr, dont want to be sedated at night yet health visitor suggesting it.

I'm going round and round in circles with everyone and I dont know what to do anymore, non of the "support" options help my issue.
Has anyone found anything that helped them?
health visitor mentioned trying CBT but I've tried this before and it was awful.
My relationship is bearing the brunt of it all and I cant feel like this much longer Sad

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about this,. Have you contacted the charity MIND. Back when I suffered with depression they thought my corner to get the support I needed.

You absolutely can take certain ADs whilst breastfeeding. 2 of my friends were on anti depressants after having their babies - both breastfed.
I'd ask to see a different GP.
