Postpartum depression anyone? π€πͺπ
I have struggled with depression for YEARS and I finally had one full year with no relapse of it last year. Iβve been working really hard with my therapist weekly to make sure I stay positive and donβt let myself slip back into a depression after having my baby. Sadly though I feel like I just canβt get motivated for anything unless itβs taking care of my daughter. Things arenβt fun anymore UNLESS it has to do with my baby. I donβt enjoy the little things like I had once done. Life seems so grey again and Iβm not liking it. I guess the best part of this whole thing is being aware that Iβm here in this depression. My therapist and I have realised that I end up beating myself up because I care a lot about the people around me, given that I guess thatβs a good thing. I feel like Iβm so just depressed and not worthy of being a mom/girlfriend that I want to end my life so they can continue with someone who will be better for them, but I know my boyfriend would miss me and my daughter could struggle to understand why I did it & so thinking of that has kept me from doing anything stupid. Some days the only thing that gets me up and out of bed is my daughter πͺ Iβm not looking for any judgment or βgo walking outsideβ I know all the things I just want to vent and know that Iβm not alone with these things. Iβm also going to add a bit of positivity to this post by adding photos of my beautiful daughter & handsome boyfriend who keep me going everydayπ
