I think i have PND!!

[jaydensmum]

Well ive been feeling out of sorts since i lost Oceana. Ive been having problems with work mates and i dont even realise that im the one causing the problems. Everyone has noticed that ive changed, but i havent, only physically. I cant sleep anymore until 2-3am each day now and even when i do i toss and turn for ages. I dont feel like eating anymore, its an effort for me. People have told me ive lost too much weight but i cant see it. I snap easily now to and thats not me. When i get upset i get so worked up that i feel out of control and cant calm down, my body gets all shaky and i can feel my blood pressure rise. Ever since i gave birth i have been sick. Ive had the cold 3 times, tonsillitis, gastro and 2 chest infections. Im never a person that catches anything. I never cry but inside its killing me. Im not a person that opens up about things, i keep it all to myself. Yesterday when i went to work (i work in a hospital) another nurse gave me an article to read, it was about anxiety and other disorders such as PND. I never told her what im experiencing, i was shocked that she worked it out just by looking at me. Its got me really worried now. Could it be PND? I have no idea so any input would be great! :yes:

I wouldn't be surprised if you did have depression after your tragic loss :hugs:

Maybe if you spoke to your GP, it may give you the answers you need.

I would say you may have some PND, but most likely you are grieving and depressed. Have you spoken to a professional about this? :hugs:

No i havent, cause i didnt realise i was so bad til the last week. My DH and everyone is telling me that ive changed and theres been so many fights. When that nurse gave me the article i read some of the symptoms and i have most of them and it got me wondering. The thing i hate the most is the anger outbursts that i have. I feel like im going to explode its a horrible feeling. When i have them i have to walk away otherwise i feel like ill hit the wall. Im so exhausted of myself! :crying:

What did everyone here experience with PND? It would help me see if this is what im experiencing. :yes: I hate feeling the way i do, im losing friends from it! :gloomy:

[GraceUnhearing]

it could be sweet!
after everything you have been through i wouldn't be surprised if you are suffering from anxiety and depression.

maybe some counseling and a trip to the dr may be in order

:hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: to you Naomi

i just have no motivation. i snap at everyone, i am so dam moody!

I keep going back with different things but not once have they said anything. I went to them with headaches that lasted for 4 days and he said "that will happen with what you went through"!!

[GraceUnhearing]

hmm sounds to me like you need a new gp.
headaches for four days dont just happen for no reason

[jaydensmum]

I keep being treated badly by gp's. Im so sick of them, they dont do anything. I dont know where to go!! :crying:

[poshBecks]

I would go to your gp & ask them to give you a referal to see a pshycologist.

:hugs: To you. You really have had a hard time. :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

[GraceUnhearing]

dont go to a medical centre

they dont care at places like that, straight in and straight out

see if you can find maybe a nice female dr around your area somewhere.

[jaydensmum]

Ill try and find a good one. Im so sick and tired of being treated so badly by dr's. They ignored me when i was pg and was trying to tell them something was wrong and they brush off what i tell them about how i feel. Why dont they care??? :mad: :crying:
