Post Partum Help Mid Pandemic
Hi there,
I’m a new mom struggling with what I am sure is PPD or PPA. I’m having a difficult time balancing everything and I fear it’s making me a terrible mom. I ask family for help and they don’t take me seriously.
If there are other new moms out there, where are you getting help? I have no family doctor and have no idea where to start.
First off if you’re not a doctor don’t diagnose yourself it only leads to panic second of all if you are worried you might have a mental health issue or other illness go to a doctor for a proper diagnosis
Maybe you will have better luck than the average joe since your classified as a mother, maybe see a doctor/clinic for a referall. It didn’t work for me but you may have better luck. The only advice I was given was; Pick up the phone and start calling psychiatrist/psychologists and make appointments, they are 150$+ an hour.
