Does anyone know of any support groups for post-partum depression in the Madison, WI area? Any other support groups for parenting would also be helpful. I am a mother of two that is suffering from post-partum depression for the second time. I have a 10-week old daughter and a 3-year old son. This time around, the depression is 100% worse and I'm scaring myself and others as to how horrible I feel and what I might do or at least think about doing. Medication is just not enough. Any advice would be extremely grateful.

Sweetie,
First of all If I were you I would call the Hospital, that your going to have your child delivered at, and they should have a list of groups there. If infact thaey don't then Call your local crisis center, or Save A Life, and I can almost gurantee that they will have some numbers to support groups. I know this isn't any fun for you, and I'm sorry it's happening to you, but hang in there!! Please make sure you call those numbers, they should be in your local phone book. I wish you luck, and don't be too hard on yourself.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO YOU
