Struggling with mental health

I don’t really know what I want from this post but I’m just struggling so much with everything. I was diagnosed with PND after having my DD last June which isn’t a surprise as I had depression before I was pregnant too. I am on anti depressants and they was working but I just feel as though they don’t now and I’m stuck in a hell hole which is my head. I worry constantly about everything and I get worryingly angry at my partner as he doesn’t understand what it’s like or even ty to understand for that matter. Because of the way I am atm my relationship is really on the line Even with the relationship counselling. I get told I’m making a big issue out of everything when I’m asking questions about certain situations. I’m due to go back to work early March and my head just isn’t contending well with leaving my DD, it’s shift work so early mornings and late nights are a must as I am in a managerial role. I suck with sleep deprivation which is worrying me too. I constantly feel guilty as I feel I should be happy all the time. I love my DD so much. I’m just struggling so much Sad

Go back to your GP and ask for more help.

I can completely relate, things just seem to be getting worse this 2nd lockdown. I have had depression for years and recently had to stop taking anti d's due to high blood pressure, was fine at first but started to slip back... good advice from above to talk to your gp if that's possible? Sorry to hear your hubby is not very supportive, people that havent had it just dont get it unfortunately:( I am trying something new this time started 2 days ago so fingers crossed, here is the link if you are interested, but again if you're feeling really bad, ring gp asap my dear, we all need help sometimes, all the best, hope things improve for you xx www.heysigmund.com/the-non-medication-ways-to-deal-with-depression-that-are-as-effective-as-medication/
