Just looking for someone who can shine some light on when PND got better for you? I am currently under the care of my community MHT due to a breakdown I suffered a week ago, and wanting to end my life. My baby is 8 months old, I also have another DD who is 2. I have never felt like life could be so black until I had my second baby, I am holding onto the small hope that there will be colour in my life again and I will feel well.
Currently all I do is cry, over the smallest thing and I feel like I am a rubber band being stretched beyond my means and anything can just set me off. I really don’t know how to explain the rest because it’s just complete doom and gloom. I am still waiting for a letter from my psychiatrist to visit him, but the letter I have been waiting for during the last week has been a no show. I do however have an appointment with my GP next week. I have no enjoyment with my children anymore, even though before DD2, DD1 could not have bought me enough happiness, but things have changed. Please tell me it gets better and when, I feel like I’m never going to be well again.
I do have a DP who supports me as much as he can (works full time) and his family pitch in when they can but as for my own family I don’t have any help from them.
