Life is really getting me down at the moment and it really feels like there is no light at the end of the tunnel at the moment. I suffered from PND after having by little boy (now 4) and my little girl is now 1 and I thought I'd escaped. Everything seems such hard work all of the time and I'm constantly trying really hard to be a good Mum and I just don't feel like I get any rewards. My children wake up at four o'clock in the morning every morning and I get sooooo angry with them it scares me sometimes. I went to see my GP who is really great and he prescribed me with Fluoxetine which I took after having Alf. The only trouble is I had forgotten that I get really bad insomnia when I take it. Consequently I stopped taking it and now I don't have the courage to go back to the GP AGAIN!!! I'm having one of those 'why does it happen to me?' days. What makes everything doubly frustrating is that it seems to me that the amount of sleep/enjoyment you get out of having children is inversly proportional to the amount of effort you put in. My neighbour has four children under 8 and doesn't seem to give two hoots about them yet they all sleep. It's not fair! Sometimes I feel like running away. Plus things are getting harder and harder between me and DH because we are all so tired all of the time. Help!
