Degree understand your concerns went through your details.  I suggest, please don't go behind medicines. You should talk to your gynecologist and understand the postpartum anxiety and depression issues and how common they are. Almost every mother go through these symptoms and after some days these issues will be manageable self. You are feeling depressed and agitated and that could be due to stress factor involved. When there are other stress factors, your depression symptoms get worse. You should learn to manage your stress, external atmosphere first, instead of going for higher dosages of medicines. Talk to your husband, family members, caregivers etc. They should help you overcome your stress. Please don't worry. Worrying also is an extreme stress. You may consult a psychologist also for counseling and stress and anxiety management. If you require more of my help in this aspect, please use this URL. http
