Suffering from postpartum depression really sucks, it doesn't just affect you. It also affects your family. What's worse, is you can't control it. I have been having an extremely hard time with this since my last baby. I'm still not really sure how to deal with it. If anyone has any advice feel free to email me. It has definately had a negative effect on my relationship with my husband.
My poor husband has to deal with me not being me at times, he deals with all the anger, depression, sadness, the guilt I feel. He deals with everything.
My husband Matthew does everything he can to help me out as much as possible when he's home. He's a amazing husband and is always there for me no matter what. I love him so much, he's definately my rock in my times of weakness.
Although I'm sure at times, he has no clue what to do or how to make things better. He always finds a way. I'm so lucky to have the husband I do. Matthew is the best husband I could have ever asked for. He deals with all the crap I put him through and he still loves me.
I love how he makes me feel better. I'm also thankful for my mother in law. She also understands what I'm going through because she's been there. I'm not on medication by choice, however I might need them. I hate to admit I'm not myself, I just want to hide it and pretend it doesn't exist. But the more I pretend its not there, it always shows up.
Its good to have an amazingly supportive husband and very dedicated father to be there for you and your children. Hands down I have the best man in world whether you think so or not. I fall in love with him more and more each day.
PPD is a constant battle, that I will overcome, but until I do. I'm thankful for the people I have who are always there for me no matter what.
Feel free to contact me for advice, about any questions you have or anything. Ill touch up on the PPD later on and let y'all know how I'm doing with it.
