I don't know where you are from, or your situation, but there is a group called "mother to mother" that deals with anxiety/depression that goes along with motherhood.
You are definitally not alone. I went through an anxiety/depression just flat out worried phase until my daughter was 4 months old. Then I inially admitted to feeling so horrible and wrong and found the mother to mother group.
Honestly as soon as I found out I wasn't the only mother in the world that didn't feel like I love my baby enough or right or all that, then I was ok. Honestly, and it's different for everyone, but for me I just needed to know I wasn't so alone.
Check and see online if there is a mother to mother chapter in your area. Tell your friends, you'd be surprised which other mothers in your circle have felt this way. people just don't tell others.
I'm here if you need someone to talk to. |
