I didn't expereince PPD, but I have been feeling pretty deppressed

Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Brooke and I am new to this website and very happy that I found it. Like I said in my subject line, I didn't experience PPD but I have been feeling depressed for a few weeks now and aware that it could get worse. I have dealt with depression in the past and have been on medication. Due to lack of money, I had to stop seeing my counselor a few months ago and everything has been fine until just a few weeks ago. I have put in a call to see if I can get an appointment again soon with my counselor. I have been thinking of myself more in a funk then being depressed and expecting the next day to be back to normal. I think it's partially due to me being home all the time with no money, even though I work every dollar I make and my husbands paychecks go towards bills. I also think that I have lost touch with who I am. I rarely do something w/o my husband and baby. I don't even know what I like to do any more. I come up with excuses not to do just about everything. I live in front of the computer and think I have forgotten how to live outside of the work I do on the computer and cyberspace. I am currently searching for activities in my area, hobbies that I can look into in my area and reconnecting with my counselor so I know I'm in the right direction, it's just making it all happen. Thanks for listening, Brooke
