Breastfeeding 27 month old and wondering if it's having an affect on my hormones or has life just caught up with me

I have breastfed my daughter since she was born and continue to do so at 27 months. It helps me get her down for her day time naps and she will usually get a wake up and bedtime time feed if I'm not rushing out to or in late from work. I'm keeping it up because it means I get a much needed break when she naps during the day as well as the fact that she continues to look for it and enjoys it. Feeding her has also been a welcome comfort to us both when she is ill.

Lately, however I've been going a little crazy and have been feeling very low, cranky and possibly a mild form of depression I am not sure whether these feelings and moods are down to something that's been cooking since my childhood (certainly, having a child brought up so much stuff for me in the past couple of years). Or, whether, my hormones are fighting to settle down two and a bit years after giving birth but because I'm breastfeeding, they have not been able to.

Anybody out there having similar experiences or able to offer any insights.
