Anyone else more than 1 yo PP? and still have PPD?

Just curious.

Even after I was diagnosed & started treatment, I totally thought I would be back to "normal" by now.
My Ob is really reassuring that it's not uncommon for women with PPD to struggle with it for a couple of years, but you don't hear that often.

Just wondering who else is on the 1 yo PP+ wagon with me.

Thanks! and so glad this board started!

My girls were 16 months old before I felt ok enough to try going off the medicine, I was pregnant with my boy before a month went by....he is now 13 months and I'm still being treated for PPD.  My doctor told me its quite common to take over a year to treat, and the more times you have it, the longer it can take to treat it.  So, I was told to expect to take it longer this time then I did the first time.

Good luck!

I didn't even get diagnosed until I was a year pp. I was on meds for about four months, went off them, and I'm now back on them.
