Hey everyone, what support do you get for PND? I lost my dad in April, I think I’m clearly suffering from PND, my baby just turned one and it’s really impacting how I’m raising her. I used to cook her lovely meals three times a day, do sensory and plan activities at home, play with her and make her laugh… but now I find myself just surviving. It seems so unfair on my daughter. I just want to be the best mom possible, but I feel like I lost a part of me in April and now I’m just not a good enough mom. I often think she’d be better off without me, she needs someone that will make her laugh, not someone that easily gets frustrated and grumpy. :(
I just wondered what support I’d get if I let a HV or GP know my struggles.
I already had CBT therapy for anxiety, so don’t know if I’d get referred again for pnd?
