so Brooke what do you like? Are you creative? Are you adventurous? Are you social? I am the creative type... I like to play with different materials; beads, art wires, threads, yarn, paint, and lots of glue! I love to get lost in a good written story so I can be the hero. When my Tiamat was a baby I was going funny at home so I when to to the parent baby ifo session at the CLSC ... massage baby, breast-feeding baby to toddler, community kitchen. I needed to remember what it was like to have an adult converstion. i needed to be stimulated and challenged. So where to start? perhaps with your circle. can you describe it? draw it? express it? from there we might have some ideas we can work out together?

Yes, thanks so much for your replies. I have signed up for the sessions but have only done 1 so far... I am no longer breast feeding and I know that i am healthy since i have been tested for various things after the birth. I do see a psychiatrist every few months. My biggest thing right now is that i am bored. My depression is from the lack of options in my life right now, i think. Even though I say that i am bored, i have no idea what i would do if i could do anything i wanted. I don't seem to have any interests anymore. So i keep going around in circles.... I know I am not complete right now but i don't know how to find my way back. Also, just to add... I was very depressed while pregnant. My mood changed so drastically. I was extremely exhausted, angry, irritable, and depressed for the first three months of pregnancy. My fiance and i almost broke up because i was so unbearable. So, in general, i am better than i was but i know life could be a lot better.

Brooke, Welcome to the group! In addition to the help you are receiving outside the site, we also recommend you continue to work through the tools of the program. This is a big change that has occurred in your life, being a mom to two children under 4 is no easy feat. It drains your body both emotionally & physically. Although I agree that having a positive self-image is important, I would urge you to look at when & why your weight has been an area of focus for you? Sometimes when the world around us changes and we find it hard to deal with those changes, we may have a tendency to zero our attention to something we can control. Perhaps this is the case for you? It must be really frustrating at times to be home with your children all day. Please know that many new mothers feel just as you do and have benefited from finding support from each other. Perhaps there's a support group, gym group or mommies/babies group you could look into joining? Also gives you an opportunity for a bit of break which you most certainly deserve. Hope this helps.

Brooke, are you breastfeeding the little one ... if you are it is really not the time to think about weight. are you sleeping during the day? napping with tiny, because it is exhausting to care for a newborn and with a 4 yr old it becomes the marathon years 9my children have 4 years between them so I know exactly where you are coming from). You are going through a lot of hormonal changes Brooke, and that can trigger depression and post-partum dep. please see your doctor or someone (nurse, soc-worker) at a clinic that can help you see what might be happening physically. You will be much better with some understanding of your situation for the outside perspective. Hobbies are a dime a dozen ... and can cost nothing -like singing- to being a fortune like sailing around the world.... What did you enjoy doing before being a mom. I enjouyed reading and embroidrey work. And depression cut my attention span to 10 minutres so I took up wonder word searches in the newspaper and beading. The beads are dollar-store shinies but got some of my creativity going. Also I gift wrapped boxes and baskets to hold the little-one's stuff with dollar story gift papers.

Hi everyone! I have suffered from depression on and off for more than 15 yrs. I am currently depressed and struggling. I am taking effexor ( i have been on many different kinds of antidepressants ) but nothing seems to work 100%. I had a baby 7 months ago and i love her but i can't seem to shake the unhappiness that i feel. For one thing, i have only lost 5lbs of the baby weight in 7 months. I have 25lbs more that i want to lose but i am also not up to dieting. Food and depression go hand in hand with me. I am not working because i am at home with baby and my stepson (4yrs). I know i need to get out more but it is such a hassle with the kids. I need a hobby but i can't think of anything to do that i might enjoy. I have lost hope because i have been trying for so long to beat this that i don't even want to get my hopes up. I have the attitude of why bother, nothing changes anyway. I don't mean to have a bad attitude. A better way of explaining may be that - at this point, I am almost afraid of feeling good because i know that eventually, i will come crashing down. I guess I am discouraged. But i am here anyway, wanting to feel some sort of satisfaction with my life.
