I am having severe depression and major stress! I am 20yrs old and have 3 kids that are 4, 3 and 13wks! I cry all day every day and stress over simple things! I feel like I cant do anything because im so depressed and stressed over everything! My 13wk old has severe acid reflux and hardly sleeps and im so easily frustrated and dont like it at all because my baby needs me! What to do?

Hi and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your question... You seem to be going through a post-natal depression. Now, there are very good treatment options available for this and you don't have to be suffering in silence. You may need anti-depressant medication for a short while to help you overcome these symptoms. Alternatively, certain talking therapies like CBT can also help you effectively. So, please consult a psychiatrist at the earliest and take help. Wish you all the best. - Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar Consultant Psychiatrist
