      For me it really doesn’t have anything to do with my baby besides he keeps me up at night and I’m tired. That’s just physical though. If anything I just feel like he’d be better off with someone else raising him because I don’t feel good enough most days.

      I had postpartum depression diagnosed in my daughters 1 year she is seven now. I think it can last different amounts of time for different people but the after math is still with me I'm in therapy now once weekly to learn better coping skills and how to control my anxiety and guilt. It definitely gets easier with time though. You will start to feel like yourself again slowly
