Can't stand my husband

claire1983

I had a bad case of the baby blues for about a week after my son's birthday and it went away and I thought all was well. In the last 2 months or so, I literally hate my hubby most of the time. I thought he was turning into a huge jerk but my sister has suggested I might have PPD. I feel like that might be possible but why is he the only one that I am upset with. I have no ill feelings toward myself, my baby or anyone else. Does anybody else have any experience like this?? I have a doctor's appt coming up in a few weeks to discuss it but I don't want to be taking drugs if my husband is in fact being a huge jerk.

I feel like my H is a huge jerk most of the time...and he might be but part of me thinks that I am just so frustrated at life and hes just the easiest person to take it on or blame.

What kind of things his he doing that makes you think he's a jerk?

He's definitely the easiest to take it out on...

Does he help enouigh with the baby?  Try to figure out what exactly he's doing and talk to him about it.

I feel the same way. My DH is never home because of work and just told me he wants a new BMW when we are struggling since I became a SAHM. He thinks it's just the PPD, but I really think he's being an ASS. Whew I feel a little better. Seriously though. I feel like most people are getting on my nerves especially my DH and MIL.

For me there were just certain people that were "easy targets" for me.  My IL's and DH.  For me there are underlying issues with my IL's and the PPD just made it so much worse.  And with DH having a baby is hard on a relationship and I think in a lot of relationships our lives change so much more drastically than the men and that can be frustrating.  While there were times that DH was infact being a jerk and my IL's were being idiots the PPD was impacting the way I was able to handle and address it and it was making me incapable of letting the little things go.  For me drugs have helped me have much better coping skills.
