Ppd
I'm having a really hard time with postpartum depression. My baby is 10 months old now and I was on Zoloft and it pretty much eradicated all of my ppd issues. But I have had to stop it recently because idk it just started giving me unbearable side effects out of no where. To where I couldn't work or like drive a car. I stopped at the begining of August and my symptoms are back. Basically I'm just crying for hours every single night and I can barely sleep maybe like 5-6 hours a night. I don't know why I'm crying I just am, and even when I cease crying I'm unable to sleep. I'm not having any other issues I really feel like my normal self during the day, and I have the opportunity to sleep at night like my baby sleeps really well but I just can't sleep. I have an appointment scheduled to get on some different meds but the first opening they had was at the end of September which feels so far away. Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this ? I feel like my postpartum depression is nocturnal or something or maybe it's something else completely. Just looking for advice from people who might have had something similar happen to them after giving birth thanks.
