My journey with PPD....


If you know me, you'd probably be surprised to know I suffered with PPD.  

I'm an optimistic, happy and fun person.  I love to hang out with friends.  I love to laugh.  I love to make people happy.  I smile to strangers. I'll support all my friends! I'm probably the first one to like your facebook status.  I'll do something for others before I do something for myself.  
I have a song in my heart.

While the outside was OK, the inside was not.

I had 3 kids in 3.5 years so I'm not sure when it started but it manifested itself sometime after my 3rd. I began to realize something was not right.  I loved them all very much but there were many struggles I faced to get to the point where I feel somewhat normal.

I have never outright stated it anywhere.

I feel that sharing my stories and feelings can help others so my plan is to write about my experiences.
