Post adoption depression is very common as well, something more people also need to be aware of! <br />Electric shock treatments are pretty horrific in my opinion.... I had 12 of them and it stole my memory for a very long time. Prayers go out to your sister and that it will help her..... It did actually help me, but the side effects were not pleasant. <br />Thanks again for sharing <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12154639100564129623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062841357773431520.post-22657270918640212742015-10-28T13:59:06.966-07:002015-10-28T13:59:06.966-07:00Hugs Amanda!!!

So even not having given birth, I suffered post partum....YES!!! It is not selective....something happens to us women who I believe have the genetic makeup to become mentally unbalanced. Stress, lack of sleep, and raging hormones will do this to us. For me, my tipping point was when my youngest was about 4 months. Took me years to finally get the proper balance of medication before I finally felt better. My family doctor tried, but it wasn't until I was referred to a psychiatrist, that I finally felt somewhat normal. To this day I would say I am still not entirely myself, which still makes me very sad, but I can cope! Your sister is not alone, and the more we talk about it, the less of a stigma will be attached to mental illness. So many suffer in silence. My oldest sister is currently going through Electric Shock Therapy as a last resort :( My family is in Kitchener, and it's killing me not to be there for her. She has had at least three treatments already, and still feels like she is in a dark cloud. I'll pray for your sister Amanda, as I continue to pray for my own.

I suffered through this. Ev...this is a great post. I suffered through this. Everyone kept saying this is normal. My anxiety got so bad could barely sleep. my rage towards my husband increased daily. and I cried every morning in the shower so the kids wouldn't see. I really hope your sister does know there are alot of us out there. It does take time to get better. But IT WILL . much love and support xo<br />christahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12103451579942112022noreply@blogger.com
