i think i might have postpartum depression.
I am 17 years old, I just gave birth on August 30th. I absolutely love my daughter, more than anything, but i think i might have postpartum depression. I try to be the best mother I can, i would never hurt my babygirl. I just constantly cry, i feel like she would be so much better off if i was dead, i think about harming myself sometimes. I don’t know why i feel this way but im scared to seek help because i don’t want my daughter getting taken away because i feel this way towards myself.. i just want what is best for her, but i don’t want her being away from me. i don’t ever actually harm myself, i just think about it.
EDIT:
My daughter is VERY well taken care of, and i have a good support system, and home. I don’t know why i feel this way. I don’t know why im constantly crying or upset..
