Firstly, congratulations to you for thinking for yourself and having the foresight to come here in the first place and ask for our advice !! Good on ya................. :0) No you shouldn't take antidepressants !! Most emphatically not. particularly if you are breast feeding ........ we wouldn't want you & your beautifull little bubba to suffer any more grief, especially considering the side affects the chemicals in these drugs will have on you.
you should try to focus on increasing your levels of Serotonin (the natural feel good drugs that your body produces with the help of good ole clean food)
Have you been eating a balanced diet?? You need proper nourishment for your mind and body to be a happy and healthy person.
Try eating more foods rich in Tryptophan. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that's used by the brain - along with B6, niacin (or niacinamide), and magesium (known as the antistress mineral) - to produce serotonin (the natural feel good drug), a neurotransmitter that carries messages between the brain and one of the body's biochemical mechanisms of sleep.
Tryptophan will help induce natural sleep; reduce pain sensitivity; act as a nondrug antidepressant; alleviate migraines; aid in reducing anxiety and tension and help relieve some symptoms of alcohol-related body-chemistry disorders and aid in control of alcoholism.
Best natural food sources of Tryptophan are; cottage cheese, milk, meat, fish, turkey, bananas, dried dates, peanuts and all protein rich foods.
Best natural food sources for magnesium are: leafy and green vegies, nuts and seeds, cold water fishes such as tuna, sardines, whiting and salmon.
Best natural food sources for niacin are: the white meat of chicken, whole wheat products, roasted peanuts, fish, eggs, avoacadoes, dates, figs and prunes.
Best natural food sources for vitamin B6 are: wheat germ, fish, soybeans, brewer's yeast, cantaloupe, cabbage, blackstgrap molasses, unmilled rice, eggs, oats, peanuts and walnuts.
Also, by taking a good quality multi B complex supplement including all the B's ie: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 you will support your body in dealing with the everyday stresses life throws at us. ie: new job, new home, school studies ...... the B complex of vitamins is essential for healthy digestive, neural and immune systsem functioning.
Really importantly, make sure you hydrate your system on a daily basis with plenty of fresh filtered water as the happiest and healthiest body will always be the most hydrated one.
Try to cut back on the things that will rob you of your precious B complex of vitamins too ie: caffeine, sodas and soft drinks, alcohol are all brilliant B complex thieves ......... things such as the antiobiotics, antidepressants, laxatives, aspirin, diuretics will all also do a great job of robbing you of your B's.
I'm so sorry all this has happened to you and your little baby but you do sound as though you have enough maturity to deal with the end result of all this grief responsibly and i reckon that you're more than likely a great mother and a very strong and kind person ............... i sincerely do wish you all the very best of health and vitality buddy?
Take care of you?
