I was a new mom and, after many months, admitted that I was suffering from post-partum depression. I thought that my choices were to either get medication or find an alternative so I scheduled my initial homeopathic intake.
Going to my visit I was nervous, excited and scared. I had no idea if homeopathy was going to work. The main reason that I was going, what I was most excited about, was that someone was going to listen to me - for about 3 hours - without judgement, just listening.
When I walked into the office and the door closed, I felt like it all got out - ALL of it. I think that I talked, punctuated by tears, for over three hours. Someone listened in a way that I had never been listened to before. When I left I was completely exhausted but I felt good. I felt relieved to have gotten all of those painful words out. Now they were in some else's hands, at least for the moment.
I received my first homeopathic remedy a week or so after my visit. What happened after that is just short of a miracle. Within a day or two, I started feeling better. All of my terrible dreams stopped. My days were brighter. It was subtle, but steady. I knew I was healing and it was ending. I was so excited to get out of that dreary place and actually start enjoying my beautiful baby.
After about a month, things physically started shifting for me. My cycle shifted and I felt things changing. I felt like my hormones were getting regulated again. I finally felt good. Actually, I felt great. After going through this healing process, I went on to have two more precious daughters and post-partum depression never had me in its grips again.
