When I was first told that I have postpartum depression I thought I was the worst mother in the world, that I was the only one in the world that is suffering from this. You know what? I was wrong. I have been going to meetings and talking to other women with PPD and hearing them talk about what they are going through helps alot, it helps me see that I am not alone, that I am not the only one in the world with PPD. It also helps to know that I am not as bad as other people, PPD can really change a person. It is amazing how a person is so under control before a baby, then when a baby is in their life that person has lost all that control. They were the type of person that would never yell or raise a hand to anyone, now they are a new mother that changes, when you have PPD everything upsets you to the point where you have to hit something or someone, your husband is usualy the target. This believe it or not is normal, you are not going crazy you are just changing. If you talk to someone about it then it will get better, if you let it go thinking it will get better on it's own then you will never get better. Take it from me, I have been living with it for 3 years and it is getting better with help.
