Postpartum Depression

I hate this.

I have been on Zoloft for 7 weeks. I still feel no change and my OB will not up my meds anymore (which is fine, I understand she is not specialized in this area) Right now I am on 50mg of Zoloft. 

So I have to wait till my intake psych appointment to talk to the dr about uping my meds. I made the appointment 4 weeks ago and it isn't till the end of this month. I want to cry, I just want to feel better. MH works 70-80 hours a week and with 3 kids - I'm pretty much a homebody. I get us out everyday even if it is just fir a walk around the neighborhood, but still I am miserable.  

I just want to feel normal and enjoy my baby. He's my last and I am missing everything.

  • I am so sorry. Can you call the psych Dr. and tell them you just had a baby and are having an EXTREMELY hard time and see if there is anyway to move you up or call if someone cancels, or a nurse you can see? I had to go on a mix of medications through the nurse practitioner I see at my therapists office. I am feeling so much better. I am thinking of you!!!

  • I saw a nurse practitioner too for my zoloft. I would definitely call the pysch back and ask if there is anything they can do cause you are really miserable. My nurse even said I could just start taking 2 pills a day if I wanted to after I think a month - you could see if they would be ok with you doing something like that especially if you have more than a 30 day supply right now.

    You could also call your doc back and just say that you can't see the psych til the end of the month and if there is any way she could reconsider?
