Hiya Samantha Lovely to hear from you - and a big welcome to the forum. It can be very confusing at first but I'm sure you will get used to it quickly. Here you are in the place where we arrange to chat 'real time' to each other but to do this you usually have to arrange to meet someone virtually in the chat room and this usually happens in the evenings. For now you can start a thread so you can introduce yourself click here to see :http://veritee.proboards7.com/index.cgi?board=intro or you can post in a thread I have started for you - click here: veritee.proboards7.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&n=1&thread=1511Veritee X

Hi
I have only just registered today so unsure how this works! Just wanted somewhere to chat to someone who may understand how I'm feeling. I have been suffering with PND for nearly 4 months and getting worse. Sick of being surrounded by happy mums and feeling guilty that I don't feel like them.
Anyone there?

Hi Gemma Don't give up - There are people around who can help! Although life is pretty black for you at the moment there really is light at the end of the tunnel! Try and be patient and take one day at a time. I am now fully recovered from p.n.i. but it affected my life for several years and at times I thought I would never survive the dark times. If you are not on medication yet go and see your G.P. and get some sorted. P.N.I. is an illness and you need meds to cope with it! If you are on meds and they are not working for you go back to your G.P and get them changed. You do not need to fight this on your own! Good Luck > Carol X:O)

Hello and welcome to the site
Sorry you are struggling with these thoughts. How long have u ad pni? How olds your baby? What support are you getting. This s really important in the recovery process.
The type of obsessional thoughts are very common. I myself use to obsess about illness and dying. My ability to rationalse went completely out the windw and I se to see arm to my kids and loved ones everywhere. This is draining. Your reaction ie shouting is common too. It's hard dealing with this illness.
Are u on any Meds? This might be worth considering.
Many people just don't understand how tough this illness can be. If you broke your leg they wud be able to see the evidence but with mental illnesses the effects aren't visible to the eye. Perhaps give them practical tasks to do? Get them to help you with your child, do shopping, cook or babysit so you can do something nice for yourself?
Who told you your baby will be taken off you? This happens in extreme cases where the child is at risk and this doesn't sound like the case to me at all.
Do come back and talk to us. The ladies are wonderful and really understanding.
Monica
