From people who came through it
“If you've just found this place, I was where you are a year and a half ago. A C-section recovery, every single day. This year I did a 5k, slowly. The bad days get further apart. You're not on your own.”
spring_mango · been through postpartum depression and anxiety“For anyone new to this: Two years ago, that was me. Back then it was not sleeping even when the baby sleeps. Now I sleep most nights. It changes. It really does. Be gentle with yourself.”
winter_dad83 · been through postpartum depression and anxiety“I'm not going to tell you it gets better straight away, because that would be a lie. What I will say is that the thoughts don't have to run the whole day. I lied on that questionnaire too, and I wish I hadn't. The health visitor is not there to judge you. Tell one person the truth, even just one. And delete the symptom checker app. It is not your friend at 2am.”
july_ink · been through postpartum depression and anxiety“For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. I remember my husband back at work after two weeks like it was yesterday. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. It doesn't stay this heavy.”
