[quote=Anonymous]Agree with everything that has been said!  For me, asking for help was the hardest part.  It also took me 6 months.  I wish I had done it 5.5 months sooner.

For me the answer was a low dose of an antidepressant.  I had struggled with some slight depression prior to pregnancy, but I think the extra hormones threw off my brain receptors, and that little dose of zoloft worked wonders for me.  For me, therapy wasn't the answer, because talking wasn't going to make me feel all that much better.  The key here though is that I got into my doc and made the request.  Doc was very quick to be helpful and reassuring and provided great resources to seek counseling if I wanted and wrote me the rX if I wanted to fill it.  She just asked that I check in ever 6 weeks with her for an update.

Understand the feelings of shame that come with admitting that everything isn't as perfect as you've made it seem, but there will be absolutely no judgment at your OB office.  Another option is to call your primary care provider.  [/quote]
