And one the women on the tv had a complication or something going on and I just got a VIOLENT flashback to my labor. I spiraled into a full blown panic attack and I couldn’t even explain to her what was wrong. I tried going to the doctor with my concerns but they just brushed it off as postpartum depression. Idk what to do, I’m on my own rn with no family or my baby’s dad caused he past from a seizure a couple months before the birth. I don’t want to talk about this with my friends cause idk how
