I've just given birth to my third DC and everything has just become so shit. I'm constantly depressed, I cba looking after my baby, my other children get no attention. My middle child constantly cries and moans and whines. My older child just throws toys constantly, answers back and shouts at me.
The house is a tip, I've no money to do anything nice with the kids not that I even have the energy.
I wish I was dead

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

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 also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

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