Description: While it's something no one really wants to talk about it, finding support is what we need. Have you battled with the thoughts of "This is supposed to be the happiest time in my life, but why isn't it?" Come here to vent, talk, ask questions and be there
Everyone is always telling me that I never do things like everyone else. For me, it doesn't start before a couple of months after giving birth. I get a knot of emotions that are so overwhelming. no matter what happens that is good in my life at that point, this knot takes over. fortunately, I am able to get rid of the feeling eventually.
For anyone who wonders what PPD feels like, I suggest reading this post by Dooce:
