Is this PPD?

Okay, ever since i've had my baby (4mo ago) I've been CONSTANTLY thinking about death, like i obsess over it in my mind. I'll think that SO is going to die on his way to/from work. I worry about that the world is going to end before I see my baby girl grow up. I try and tell myself that worrying about those things isn't going to prevent it from happening, but it doesnt help at all. I've always had anxiety, and i'm not sure if this is anxiety or what but it sucks   Every single day i get sad because i think about the world ending, or something happening and killing me, SO, or my baby. I'm just wondering if this is a normal first time mom feeling or if its more PPD.

i feel like that too sometimes, It sucks I know but we mamas just have to stay stron for our lil ones.

I think PPD is more of anger and overwhelming sadness. But you very well could have it???? I think that way alot and worry about my family as well.

Ever since Ava has been born three months ago it seems like im always so scared of her dying like in her sleep or choking or something.......it seems weird to me idk what to think of it

i get so sad! for some reason i just think the world will end while i'm alive. but people have told me its selfish to think that way? idk but it scares the shit out of me!

i read that obsessing over death is a big symptom of it. idk though

see ive taken that before, and i put 0 on every single one except feeling afraid, obsessive thinking (in red) and preoccupation with death (in red)
i dont have any other symptoms but those... i don't know if that means i have it or not

Hmm...i reckon chat to your doctor then...just to give your mind some relief

i suppose. do you suffer from PPD? or do you have some of the same thoughts as i do?

i just took that test and i had a score of like 36 but none the only one is red was thinking about death

I just switched my meds 3 times in 2 months..theyll probably say its something with PPD.ANXIETY.OR SOMETHING TO DO WITH OCD always repeating stuff in your mind..lol i try to pay attention to the doctor but i usually just pay attention to the meds they give me. but i was on celexa..worked great but made me lazy.. so i went on wellbutrin. gave me soo much energy but made me psycho.tomoro morning i start zoloft so hopefully it works   i had ppd and i have really bad social anxiety.

i got 18... and 3 of them are in red (not thinking of killing baby or myself ones)
i dont know what the heck to think

See, ive always had anxiety, i went to out patient rehab (for that and other issues) and they would just put me on all these meds that i didn't necessarily need so i'm kind of scared to get on meds. i'm just confused because i have barely any symptoms of it, but the ones i do have are very hard to deal with!

i suffered from PPD the first few weeks after I had my baby 4 months ago. it was BAD but I was always!!! crying. now its ok but with the wellbutrin once i get mad i go psycho its scary. i think i scare my SO
