I applaud you for being open about it. I feel like I've been a spokesperson for PPD and now miscarriage. Pretty sick of being a spokesperson, but more pissed off about the taboo of talking about things to stop doing so.

I still haven't read his letter. It's been sitting up on a tab since Lisa posted it.

I wasn't abused sexually as a child. A lot of other shitty things happened, but not that particular shitty thing. I've been suicidal at several points in my life..have only acted on it once. I'm so pissed that I've finally found a drug that works for me and now I have to take it into account as a factor in my miscarriage. I'm terrified of being without my med during pregnancy, but more terrified of another miscarriage.

Fuck fucking depression.

Sho nuff. I think of you many times a day. I certainly can't understand the depth of your loss but I certainly understand feeling like no-one understands and that many (MANY) minimalize it.

Not that it matters one iota, but I don't think there's anything for you to blame yourself for. You're the one of most devoted, educated, responsible mothers I know. (If Wellbutrin was the reason, that's on your doctor's head for underselling the risk.)
