PND, i lied......

[kellysomer]

The HV came yesterday for her last home visit and i filled out a PND questionairre, i knew some of the answers would be not so good as i am very stressed but i scored 9 which is borderline.

The trouble is you know you don't want to fill in the truth on the form so i played down a couple of the answers, this means that if i had filled it in properly i would have scored high enough to suggest PND.

I am not going to lie anymore like i did on the questionairre , i am stressed and i am tired and run down, but i love my kids and have never thought about hurting myself or them, no way. I love them and am happy in my homelife, my hubby is wonderful and although we have our moments (dont we all) everything is good.

I dont know why the results have come back this way as apart from being a bit tired (not suprising given the age of my kids, the HV agreed on this) and stressed i feel generally fine.

Do you think i should be worried? I felt down after having Isla but this was mainly due to being home alone all week (except the kids obviously) and i hate being alone, this time is not so bad but i dont want any thing to get worse.

Theres no harm in asking for help if you think you might need some help chances are you already know yourself that maybe a little is in order?

Hope you feel better

idk hun. i didnt lie coz i thought that would only be cheating myself! im one of those really happy mums luckily, but i still scored 10 on my first one, which my HV said was "a bit high", because of the anxiety questions, i worry too much i think. all the ones about not looking forward to things, crying and thinking bout harming myself i honestly scored zero on, yet i still scored high! so it could be the anxiety questions?

i would mention to ur HV and re-so it, then if necessary u can get the help u need.
