10- words of wisdom, please.
Post-pardon depression sucks, just saying. PPD is what I call it, it doesn't sound so bad when you say it that way. I know ALOT of new moms go through this and have addressed it, so how did you do it? Words of wisdom are appreciated. I know I'm not alone on this one and I know it's hard to talk about, I know because it's taken me 7 weeks to address it and seek out help, medically and personally. I know it will get better, I just need patience. Any words of advise? Ready, set, go!

Oh Jenn....it's horrible isn't it?!? You are definitely not alone sister...and don't you dare think for a second that you are a bad person, a bad mom, a bad wife because you are SO not! You are wonderful and while life seems too much to handle right now, it will get better! Take those happy pills AND take people up on their offers to help! Seriously, someone wants to come over and bring dinner, yes please. Your family wants to come over and pick the princess up for a few hours, yes please. That was my biggest hill to climb was letting go and focusing on healing myself. I was in a dark place for a long time! :( I wanted to sit in my house with my baby...didn't want to answer the phone, didn't want to answer the door, would hear the doorbell and sit in the dark hoping that whatever angel was coming to save me would go away before Kensington started crying. :( Looking back I remember how bad it was and think how stupid I was for not allowing the people that love me the most to offer their helping hands. {Whew, that was tough to type...sorry if it's to much info.}
I remember being SO mad at my friends for not telling me about this part of being a mommy and I really thought that there was something I was doing way wrong because I was alone.....so far from the truth!!!
Hang in there sweet girl! Happy pills do work and so does prayer!!
