I’m a new mom, just delivered my baby boy 2 weeks ago via emergency c-section. I️t was a pretty traumatic experience for both of us.

My partner had to go back to work the day after we got home from the hospital and it’s been so hard on me to be home alone everyday with just a baby while healing. All of our family and friends live in different states so I have no support. When my partner comes home he either plays video games or wants to go to bed. I’m left up all night and day still alone as we don’t talk much or spend much time together. I feel so worthless, completely alone and like maybe motherhood just wasn’t cut out for me after all. I love my son so much, but I’ve never felt so down. I just need some kind of comfort because right now I don’t feel I can do this. Please help.

When I try to get comfort from my husband he just tells me there is no reason to cry or tells me to stop crying. I️ can’t get the emotional support I need from him.
