My little girls mother got it BAD! She was alos a manic depressant on top of having post pardom depression. She tried to drink Zippo fluid and slit her wrist with a broken CD. I helped her through it though, i had our child 95% of the time it was awake (took care of it) and let her know i was there for her.

 

i have a bit of it now. I've come to realize i have severe issues on the ability to express my feelings / emotions.

- I constantly wait for "the right time" to say something ...
- bottle in problems only because I put other's issues in front of mine ...
- When something goes wrong towards me, I never say anything ... I just deal with it by distracting myself into submission

If you catch me on the wrong day, everything spills out ... although my issues are valid, nobody can withstand what I have to say, because it's so much at one time.

Right now, I'm trying to cure my depression by removing the venom from my system. The venom consists of aged problems, mixed with never ending sensations of guilt, a bit of negative imagination, the inability to cope with death, true issues, and other fun things.

I've gone way past the breaking point ...

 

Oh god...I remember having a 2 week dry spell and I literally thought I was losing my mind. Those things are dangerous. Then I safely weand myself off it and now it has been 4 months.

 

I'm hear to listen to your problems :jae:

 

I mean, I don't mean to hijack puffy's thread, but I could be on here for a while.

It's to the point where I don't have much to hide, I consider everyone here friends.

 

I know my biggest issue is that I keep everything bottled up, and every once in a while I'll snap just a little bit. Then there's always the "I'm not happy at this stage in my life" syndrome that hits me every now and then. :hs:

 

just don't feel like you're the only one. :hs:

 

Tony, you should help your wife find a good psychologist to talk to. That's probably the best start for her, so that she can get an unbiased person's advice. I'm not sure why, but sometimes it's easier to hear things from someone you're not related to. They can sort of help guide her in finding what's up.

 

postpartum depression is caused by her hormones being out of wack. she needs to tell her obgyn and they can test her hormones and help her out. she shouldnt have to suffer when its not necessary. it does take time for the hormones to go back to normal. there is nothing wrong with taking drugs to help with this form of depression.

 

yes he did.
