Postpartum depression

Hi everyone I suffer with ppd it’s been 10 months now and last month my doctor prescribed me Sertraline. I took it for a few days but I stopped. Is their any other way I can treat my ppd. I really don’t want to take pills. 😭

If you’re in the states, go on psychologytoday.com, search find a therapist. You can search by insurance, area, issue etc. don’t try to do this alone.

Counseling is such a big help. I also wanted to say that I’ve been on that exact medicine for 2 months now and it has helped me tremendously. I felt weird the first 3 days but then it evened out (I take it before bed) and now I can tell it’s doing its job. I’m almost 5 months PP and am thankful that the meds and therapy have done so much good.

Counseling is good alternative if you don't want to take meds. Though I know it doesn't work for everyone. It might be worth a shot. Talk to your doctor about it.
