Baby steps! 😤

8months PP and dealing with severe depression with suicidal thoughts and tendencies, being cooped up in my one bed room apt alone with my LO after partner left 2months PP. Hospitalized twice from PPD and experimenting different antidepressants, 3 different types of therapy. I have finally stepped out of my house and went for a walk for the first time ALONE with my baby. Other times it would usually be a friend or family member but I’d have to be quick. I’m slowly getting better for this LO. Oh yeah, for the first time ever I dolled myself up too!! 😁

That’s amazing!! Taking walks with the baby can be so much fun!

Well done you! It hasn’t been easy for you but you are getting there.

@nelli it was, although it made me feel guilty in a way because her and I have mainly seen the same walls every single day for 6months and she couldn’t stop looking around the apartments! It was cute but sad

@Rueben slowly like a turtle but I definitely think I will get there !

Hey girl i was hospitalized for 17 days it was horrible! Glad to hear you doing good

I’m proud of you! May seem like a small step but it’s not, you’ve got this💪🏼🩷

good job girl keep it up

Hey girll proud of you if you need anyone to talk to you can always reach out to me! My Instagram is luv3ly.Linaa txt me on there n ill give you my #

I experienced this minus the help I’m glad you are aware and taking steps to try and get out on here and outside , therapy everything I wish I did stuff sooner before I crashed out a bit pp however it’s not easy doing it alone and it’s very valid to feel lonely at times! You got this you and baby are so cute!! Working out trying new stuff helps I was single mama around 5mo with my son he’s now gonna be 4! Time flies I’m still here with him if there’s anything I would say is time will pass and you will have great days ahead mama! Sometimes it can feel like we have more bad days then good ones but in due time be patient and enjoy the present moment as much till you’re where the future holds for u both 🦋🤍👸🏻 ever need a friend I’m here!!!

Keep bring outside with bub. It's the best therapy. When you can start getting involved in activities as well. Take bub to play ground etc. Fresh air and natural light really gets everything into perspective.

Well done for sharing this. You will have helped some other mummies feel a lot less alone today. ❤️

@Carla thank you!!! ☺️ this means a lot

@Lav I’ll definitely keep trying! It was a nice little walk
