Hi Catherine / Cat 84,

Welcome welcome to the forums and thank you for joining us.

I really appreciate you reaching out to us and I'm sorry that you're having such a tough time right now. For what it's worth I'm really glad that you're here.

There's one resource that I can't recommend highly enough and that is PANDA. They are the go-to's when it comes to postnatal depression with everything from forums, helplines, support - you name it.

Here is their website - https://www.panda.org.au/ and their phone number is 1300 726 306 (M-F 9am - 7.30pm).

There's also a few other jumbled threads about PND on this site which you might find helpful. I've linked to them here - https://www.beyondblue.org.au/general/search-results?keywords=postnatal%20depression&page=1&type=Forums

I hope that this helps a little
