Chronic sleep deprivation

Lindsay
I thought I was displaying symptoms of PPD. After speaking with my doctor she said my symptoms were consistent with chronic sleep deprivation rather than PPD and it's easy to confuse the 2 because sleep deprivation displays itself as depression. I guess it makes sense I only get 4 or 5 hours of sleep a day for the past almost 3 months. Her suggestion? Get more sleep. Yea right, my husband works 3rd shift so it's only me all night and all day while he sleeps. So I guess I just continue to march on.
