I don't get how to get this point across. But I feel like my symptoms are getting worse.
It's possible that it may not be what you think it is though,maybe that's why.I googled PPD and I fit the symptoms,but usually only when my PTSD symptoms are in full gear.If I hadn't been diagnosed with PTSD and had read about PPD,I could very easily have assumed that's what I have.There's other disorders too that have those symptoms so maybe it's not that they're not taking your symptoms seriously,maybe they just don't want you self diiagnosing?
