Hi, sorry if this is long but please bear with me
Im currently 1 year postpartum, initially I had the baby blues and was very upset and mood up and down for a while but that went and I felt really good and happy and was loving life.
I got pregnant again and sadly had to terminate due to medical problems and I feel like now my mood is really erratic, I could be ok one second and then burst into a fit of anger and being upset the next second. Every single thing stresses me out, im very tearful, feel worthless at times. I get extremely stressed about things that wouldn't have stressed me before - like having to do a load of washing, or emptying the dishwasher.
I find it really hard to explain to my husband and he keeps telling me everything will be ok but I really just can't see passed the present and feel like nothing is going to improve.
I sometimes hate myself for feeling this way but I can't help it.. it's looming over me like a dark cloud

I really don't know what to do and wondering if anyone had any advice or has experienced anything similar?
Thank you
