Post natal depression, should i see a doctor?

Related to mum

My baby is now two and a half and im quite sure i have and have had post-natal depression. So far i have been hiding it and have struggled on and im not really sure what to do. Can i still have post natal depression so long after the birth?

should i go see my gp or am i wasting my time?

go and chat to your gp he will be able to point you in the right direction. drugs are not usually the first answer and there are some great councilling services...Online and offline.

One thing that would def help is if you could find time for more exercise. It releases endorfins that make you feel better. Also you should avoid alchol at all costs, it is a major cause of depression.
