Post partum depression, 2 year old, and marriage trouble

happy_un-bride · June 2015

I have postpartum depression, but only realized it a little over a year ago. I've been under the treatment of my doctor, but after some recent increased struggle this year, I am now off work and being treated by therapists and seeing a psychiatrist tomorrow after a month long wait. My husband is tired do not getting the emotional support and relationship from me, and at this point in fear he already has one foot out the door. I'm trying to do everything can to get home not to give up on us. Just don't know what to do. Has anyone had similar struggles?

So, you are worried that your husband is going to leavge you because you are depressed?

Has he been to any counseling?

Maybe he should work on being supportive instead of being needy?

Maybe he is the cause of some of your depression?

Has he been to a support group?

Perhaps you have another problem in addition to PPD -- have you had your thyroid checked? Maybe you have some type of thyroid problem --- it is not common after giving birth to develop a thyroid problem -- and all are treatable.
