I spoke to my counsellor today and finally admitted I weren't ok. Felt this way since my DS was born 22 months ago. Thought the depression would go. Now it's time to finally address it and speak to the GP. I'm scared/nervous/slightly embarrassed. I've turned down AP in the past because I didn't want to have a bad reaction or rely on them ect. But speaking to my counsellor made me realise they might really help.

So what are people's experiences with AP did they help with the depression? What made me finally admit I weren't ok was because I've begun having intrusive Thoughts around suicide. I want to live but can't help these thoughts. Any advise please????

OP, we've edited your thread title, as requested. Really sorry to hear that you're feeling like this.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We are going to move this thread to the Mental Health section shortly.
