It seems like becoming pregnant has balanced me out…I’m afraid that once I have my baby I will fall back into my old state of depression. No medication helped, doctors didn’t help…I was tired all the time, cried for no reason, acted irrationally (getting angry and upset over nothing). I don’t want it to happen anymore. I don’t want to be sad anymore.
First of all, CONGRATS on being pregnant! Being a mom is the best thing in the world : )
The first thing you need to do as soon as you have the baby is talk to your dr’s and nurses and let them know you’re going to need some help with the post-pardum depression. The reason I say this, is because in most cases (and I was one of them) people who are diagnosed w/ depression and not treated for it before they become pregnant, will have it 10 times worse after the baby arrives. I never did get help and I’m paying for it now. I think it would be the best thing for you to do. Good luck w/ everything! God Bless!
