Everythings just getting worse....

Hello Everyone

So I just turned 7 weeks PP and still not feeling any better, i know I'm depressed (previous major depressive disorder) but I refuse to admit it to others.... My DH today told me I need to get on anti-depressants and I told him no.... Before I was pregnant I had pretty much tried everyone of them and they did nothing or just made me feel worse....

 And now to add onto it I'm struggling to find a job, DH is pretty much desperate for money so we can get a place of our own and it makes me extremely nervous. At this point hes willing to do anything..... And I feel like *** because I dont have a job to help out... Plus holidays are around the corner so moneys going to that and not to a savings....

Idk what to do now....I feel so lost and hopeless...... Help???

I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. I'm not PP yet but I've dealt with depression and anxiety since I was ten and I'm petrified that this is something I will be dealing with once LO is here. Maybe you don't need meds right now but just maybe need to go talk to someone, someone objective. If you ever need anyone to talk to about things please feel free to message me. I know how hard it is when nothing seems to go right no matter how hard you try. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Keep your chin up

I am also sorry you are going through all of that.  I know you said meds didn't work but I would definitely call the doctor and talk to him/her about what you are feeling and what you have been on that didn't work.  Maybe there are some other things you can try.

You may be pleasantly surprised and find a medication that works for you now that did not before.

 Plus holidays are around the corner so moneys going to that and not to a savings.... Just remember, christmas is about the thought, not the price tag. This years finances suck for us too. DH unemployed and me on Disability. Savings does not have to be depleted to give to family.

Idk what to do now....I feel so lost and hopeless...... Help??? Call your Dr. Even if Meds are not an option you need someone to talk too, especially since you are not comfortable discussing this with other family and friends.
