I would be grateful for any advice I can get regarding a friend. She is expecting her second at the end of Jan and is suffering from depression. She was on ante-depressants but came off these when she found out she was pregnant as she had a really stressful first 4 months with pregnancy problems and didn't want to take anything. From things she had said and messages she's sent her depression is getting worse and I'm getting increasingly concerned. I have advised her to go to her gp to talk about how she's feeling and get back on ante-depressants.
I just wanted to get some advice from people about anything I can do practically to help or from anyone who has been in the same boat as my friend about steps she can take herself. Her home situation is complicated, making it worse, so has limited support.
Thank you for any suggestions.
