What a relief it is to see this board here!

I start therapy next week for PPD, the medicine alone isn't enough.

    Yes

    Though I wasn't dx with PPD (my therapist said I had more PPA) I'm very thankful there is finally a board where mothers can discuss PPD, etc.  It's a very lonely feeling and just being able to talk about things can make all the difference.

    Why is this a sub-board? WHY?

    I have NO idea...it's like we're the wicked step-children of the bump and we need to be hidden.  WTF?

    I went for my first therapy session on Monday and it has helped.  I haven't started meds excepted for ativan to help me sleep since I haven't in about 2 months, even though my son STTN.  I do notice that I am in a bad mood but I think that's because while it's cathartic to release the emotions, it means you have to deal with them as well, which can be hard.  Does that make any sense???  Good luck.

    I seriously hope you have better luck with the therapy than I did. My therapist sucked. And I gave up. Probably not the right approach.

    Well, DH set something up for me (us) while we were in Indy through his job. The guy we spoke with - I really liked him. I wish I could see him regularly.

    I hope I can find someone that I am comfortable with down here.

    I'm also about to email Bump Gods about this insanity.
