I am sorry your doctor just told you "you'll get over it". HOpefully he was closely monitoring you at the time. I'm scared at how many women are told that it's just normal and a part of the "baby blues". I don't think any depression should go unchecked. I was fortunate that the person who ended up being my best advocate was my husband. Oour family doctor wanted to just brush it off, but Steve pushed for treatment for me and I really believe I have the good relationship with my son today to thank for that.
