Postpartum Depression

tired of the tears :-(

My son is almost 5 weeks old.  I have been taking Wellbutrin since he was born.  I swear it's not working.  I asked my OB this week to up the dosage which she did.  I see her soon for my 6 week check up and if I don't feel better by then, I guess I'll have to try a new medication. 

I feel so lost and sad. 

Sorry for the vent.  I just don't know where to turn to.  I literally was just crying for almost 2 hours straight (for the 2nd night in a row).  I feel like I'm going crazy.

  • Sorry you're having a rough time. You are not alone.

    Definitely talk to your doc if you're not feeling better.

    I took Wellbutrin for depression a few years ago and it helped a lot. My doc put me back on it when DS was 8 months old b/c it has worked in the past. This time, it didn't.   I went back to my doc and they started me on Celexa, which has helped a lot. 

    Hope things get better for you soon.

  • Definitely try another medication. Wellbutrin doesn't really work for my depression, so I take the other class of drug -the SSRI's- and those seem to really help.
