Post Partum depression question

Post Partum depression question

I have been extremely depressed for the last 4-5 weeks and finally broke down and went to see my doctor last week. She put me on Prozac to try to help me feel better. The question I have is...my DD is 6 months old today. Could I have just gotten post partum depression this long after having my DD or could I have had it all along and just didn't have it this bad?? I am so confused. I don't have any bad feelings towards my daughter, it is just....hard to explain. I am so moody, mean, and I don't even want to be around my husband most of the time. Does any of this make sense??

Yep, makes total sense. It can take a while before you notice that what you are feeling is PPD. It is good you recognized it and sought treatment.
