I’m 6 weeks postpartum and have began having anxiety, panic attacks, being afraid to be alone, I think of things over and over, have intrusive thoughts (things I WOULD NEVER act on), worry that I’m incapable of taking care of my baby, excessively tired, helpless..

I have searched the internet to see if this is normal and apparently it is very common... but I stumbled across postpartum psychosis and that has scared me to death.. i’m scared I could develop that and constantly worry about if I am losing touch with reality. I have told my mom and husband about this and they keep telling me nothing is wrong and that I don’t need medication or need to talk to my doctor about this...

Can anyone talk about their experiences?? Am I suffering from depression or psychosis??? I’m so worried and I’m scared my doctor might think I’m crazy or take my baby.. I haven’t had any hallucinations or delusions.. but I do feel off and worry that something is wrong with me.. please share your experiences and advice
