[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like postpartum depression, medication and therapy can help[/quote] Op here Thanks for bringing up PPD. I’ve wondered about this myself, especially since her withdrawal just months after our youngest was born. I’ve read up on it and tried to gently bring it up to her, suggesting that she might be dealing with depression or severe burnout, but she completely shuts down the conversation. She won't even entertain the idea. I even offered to take the girls away for two weeks so she could have a complete break. She refused that too. That’s what is so confusing and frustrating. If she’s overwhelmed and needs space, I’m trying to give her an out. If she’s depressed, she needs support, but she won't talk to me about it. I feel like I’m hitting a brick wall.[/quote]
