Hey everyone,
Just a quick question..
I went to my dr on thursday and after we
talked for a while she decided to put me
on Citalopram for PPD. I read over the
pamplet and am not sure if i want to be on
them, they sound kind of scary to me (with
some side effects being suicide). It has
been very stressful for me the past couple
of months, I was going to school, working,
and being home with my daughter while my
finacee was at work. We've started
fighting a lot lately and he says it's
because of my moodyness and attitude. I've
had very little patience with him or my
daughter lately, and am verrry fatigued.
Sometimes i think about just up and
leaving him with my daughter, but i know i
could never do that. It's just a random
thought when i've just had too much!.... I
told my dr all that and then she
prescribed the pills. But i still just
don't know if i want to be on them!? Is
there any other ways to make all those
issues better, without being on
anti-depressents!?

Hey mommy
hope you are feeling a little better about
yourself, how old is your daughter? the
reason I ask is my wife felt very low
after our daughter was born and after a
few very hard months we went to our doctor
who told us it was post natal depression.
Im sure you are aware of this and I would
just like to reaffirm that if you are
suffering form this please take up your
doctors offers off all the counciling and
groups.
