Hi there, I'm 23 and a SAHM. I've been up and down for as long as I can remember and after the birth of my son just over 2 years ago I knew I had post natal depression but didnt want to admit it to the world. I didnt want people to think I was a bad mum or anything. Anyway, 2 years later I have another child who is 10 months and 7 weeks ago I miscarried twins at 11 weeks. I finally decided I best see a doctor as I was getting much worse and I finally admitted to my partner I wasnt coping with daily life. My doc put me on Zoloft which I've been on for a week and so far they havent done anything but she said they'll take 2-3 weeks.
I decided to start this program because I want to be able to help myself. I dont want to rely on meds for the rest of my life. I want to be back to my old self - well at least, I want something about me to be recognizable by me. I find it very hard talking to people about myself and especialy when I'm depressed. I feel I have to pretend I'm fantastic when inside all I want to do is curl up under a rock.
I guess thats enough about me for now. Good luck to everyone.
