Jan please listen to Tania - she knows what she's talking about and gives very sound advice.

If you have recently had a baby, then I can see the same symptoms I have seen in a few others - all of whom became worse before they got better. It is not necessarily post-natal depression, but could be, or be akin to it.

I urge you to go see your doctor - tell him/her how you feel and get it treated NOW. The longer you leave it, the worse it will get, believe me. You MUST get treatment. It is quite a common condition, but it MUST be TREATED. Your family situation can only be blamed for so much of it - but not all. Please go and see the doc.

fingers crossed that things get better hun xxxx

Jan ,please listen to advice and seek help from your GP
Im sure they will help you
Its not uncommon after you have a baby to feel this way
Keeping everything crossed for you

I am not qualified to give you the advice you need but l would love to see you post on here to say you have made a appointment with your doctor, nothing wrong with feeling down we all feel like that at times, the only thing l can do is give you a {{{{{{hug}}}}}}.

We've not spoke before Jan but hope you are ok this morning and that you have considered taking some of the advice given regarding seeing you gp.

We all have blue days some more than others but this seems more than that love, I just wish I was near you so I could come over and give you some support even if it was to make you a cuppa to have 5 mins to yourself.

If you are reading this thread please let us all know how you are love, cause we are all concerned about you.

(((((((loving hugs))))))))

Just to nudge this up for Jan to show that we are all here for you, and are worried for you. I do hope you have gone to your Dr. BCXX

I don't know you, Jan, but I do feel for you and second everything that so many others have said on this thread.

Jan.... I am sorry you feel so low. It could be post natal depression.

Go and talk to your doctor... I am sure they will be able to help.

Thinking of you.

Hi Jan
Hoping you're on Chat today and reading the kindly advice given.
Please see your doctor who can help you.

Do you have a close family member or pal who you can lean on and will understand your feelings?

Take good care of yourself Jan and come back and just 'talk' here if it will help in any way.

Hello Jan - I don't think we've spoken on here before ..........


I really feel for you - this time last year I was in exactly the same place - it was only after the third occasion of catching myself thinking 'why don't i just leave this world' that i scared myself into seeing my GP ............


I've suffered depression on and off for no apparent reason - but had i not put my trust and faith in my GP and told him how I was feeling, I don't know if I would be here today, whether I wanted to be or not.

Please Please Please ................. talk to a close friend about how you are feeling and ask them to go with you to see your doctor - he CAN help I promise you ((((hugs))) xxx

Awwww Jan.................I have been where you are, the GP was fantastic, but they can only give you help if you ask for it.

Please phone someone NOW and get yourself the treatment you need..................you are a wonderful Mum I'm sure, just struggling at the moment as most of us do.

Hi, we haven't spoken on here before, but reading what you are saying, and then Tania's comment about having a baby makes me think you may have post natal depression. I had this after both my children, and its a horrible place to be, but it CAN get better.....PLEASE see your GP, or talk to your health visitor as soon as you can.....

apologies if am repeating what others have said, or got anything wrong....haven't read the rest of the thread yet! please PM me if you'd like to talk...xxx

afternoon ......................

Look I,ve got about 10 kids and one grandson ...so with some knowledge I can says ........

You are a good mum..coz I,ve advertised once or twice since starting this job for a new mum and still no one has come forward for an interview let alone the job!!!
I,ve seen some crap in my time and being a mumis the hardest job ever ...thats why we are made and not appointed like the goverment or the Queen.....................

Your children will say they want a new mum its part of their job to moan about you ...as is your hubbys and if they didnt moan what would you do with your spare time without the worry of how they make you feel .......

I went to Romania to the orphnages about two years ago and OMG what i didnt see is not to be spoken about BUT until you touch reality we never understand what why and where ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,


So let them moan and let them winge just smile knowing that one day you will be right and have stood up for whats right for their own good .......

NOW YOU ....go do something for YOU and YOU only ...shopping coffee with a friend just go dont look back just go ..............................

let them find themselves a new mummy for the day ............................

NO BUT

take care ....we do understand
