Finally opening up about this… 9 months postpartum #postpartumjourney #postpartumhealth
Opening up about my postpartum depression.
I’ve known for a while that I wanted to share what I’ve gone through the past 9 months, but just didn’t know how.
Only the Lord knows the depths of darkness I walked through, and it’s impossible to relay that to others, especially through social media.
But the main thing I want you to know is that you are not who your thoughts say you are. You can’t control every thought that comes to your mind, and you are not defined by those thoughts. More often than not they are the complete OPPOSITE of who you are and what you truly think.
Please reach out to friends for support. Isolation only makes it worse, and the Enemy wants you to continue living in shame and guilt.
Thank you Jesus for the freedom we have in You, and thank you for placing beautiful hearts and souls in my life to point me back to the truth when all my mind was filled with was more and more lies about myself and my life.
If you’re needing a friend who knows this struggle, don’t hesitate to send me a message 🫶🏼
