I have Post Natal Depression, I am at the severe end of mild apparently!

So i know they are two but they consider any "blues" within 3 years of giving birth over here as PND.

I know i know, everyone has been saying... could it be that? And i have been like no no no... you were right i was wrong!

My Health visitor is trying to set up some child minding for the kids a coupld of times a week just to give me some time out (and it's breaking my heart!!)

He thinks it's just been a crappy six months, papa dying, two miscarriages, having a nasty flu, JL acting up and the the terrible two on top of that, the car going konked, the finances spirialling out of control etc etc etc!

So hopefully, six months of physical support may help. He asked me if i had anyone to offload to... i burst into tears and told him about you guys, he was amazed that so many women can mean so much to each other when they haven't even met. he thanks you... I THANK YOU!

So there it's official! one day at a time!

    I'm glad you talked to your doctor about it.

    Everyone needs a break from family pressures. I really enjoy my time away from Ben and Erin when I go and read the old papers for genealogy or just going to scrapbook with some of my scrapbooking friends. Yes I feel tugs at my heart but I know I need the break.
