Postpartum depression..

kasey
I told myself this would never happen and it did. I was diagnosed with postpartum depression and I'm beyond embarrassed. I'm suppose to be the rock - the super mommy - but instead I've been letting everyone down. 
I feel overwhelmed, sad, full of anxiety. Sometimes wonder what it would be like if I just ran away. I would never, but the thoughts have crossed my mind. I don't sleep at night even though I'm beyond exhausted. I lay and bed and can't keep my mind from wandering. 
Today was my 6 week check up and I was suppose to be able to schedule my tubal but he wouldn't let me because of how I'm feeling. So instead we are inserting an IUD for now. 
He also prescribed me Zoloft and referred me to some groups. (How he thinks I will be able to attend this groups are beyond me..stay at home mom with babies.. right)
I'm nervous about take long medication like this. Has anyone else been through this?
And ladies, I didn't think ppd was real. I never in a million years would have thought this would happen to me. Now that it has all I have to say to you ladies is - it's real. Very real.
