  • I dont know what I'm talking about huh? Do you have a newborn child? My wife is going through post partum depression right now.

    • Not now, but I did once way back, and she subsequently developed post partum depression after her second and third child were born. I feel sorry for your wife if you believe it will just "pass" and I hope she's getting real and professional support elsewhere.

      • She did go to get help but they just tried to give her SSRIs. I dont want her taking those because shes breastfeeding. I grew up on all kinds of pills and thats prolly why im so fucked up. We just talk about it and a reinforce positive thinking. Usually its something in particular shes upset about like worrying about not being a good mom. I reassure her shes a great mom. Thats more than I feel the doctors did for her. The doctor wont pick up the phone in the middle of the night but I will.
