Dear New mother,

It is nothing but just a medical condition happens with some new mothers. The chemical inbalance in the brain following the delivery is the causative factor.It may last for couple of weeks or months. Instead of fighting it out alone, discuss the concerns, feelings and emotions with your partner or any person significant and knowledgeable in your family and seek the medical advice from a Psychiatrist and act upon.

Everything is for time being only, you will be alright again, Be rest assured !
