Answer 1

Don't worry hun,as they said ''it's all in your head'' everything can be healed by your hope,it's just a chemical imbalance that won't last long if you will think more positive.

You are not bipolar,is postpartum depression and it's very usual after pregnacy.Wishing you all the best and kiss the baby !

also i'll sugest for you trying to take rodiola rosea + folic acid + the present antidepressant! really helped me  

Answer 2

Personally, it sounds as if you need a few other professional opinions when it comes to dealing with your depression.  I honestly don't think you're bipolar, but just have a case of the baby blues.  I'm really surprised that your doctors would have you on THAT much medication.  

I can understand you not wanting to have to take antidepressants, but you can try to make your life a bit better.  Maybe when your baby gets a little bit older you should start walking/running with
