I've suffered from moderate to severe depression all my life, along with panic and anxiety disorder. I had to be on meds through out my entire pregnancy despite the risks (she came out healthy as can be). I've been happy until about two weeks ago. I had to get off a med because it was causing facial hair growth on my chin and I was basically growing a beard. Anyways I started a new med but it hasn't kicked in yet. I feel so alone, sad, angry, tired and then some. I cried all morning with no rhyme or reason. My daughter is 10 months old and I love her so much but because I feel so low right now I don't want to be around her. I feel like I can't handle her mentally. I feel like a horrible mother now. I know I just need to wait for this new med to kick in but that takes two weeks and it's only been 3 days. I desperately need some guidance and maybe even some similar stories from some ladies who have maybe gone through something like this. I just need someone to be here for me right now. someone who doesn't know me but understands my struggles. Please anyone? I feel so alone.

This is my 10 month old baby girl. I want to be happy and strong for her.
