Since my husband is an overseas worker and I worked online, where I do go out seldomly and meet with people rarely I thought of these a reason why am i being vulnerable of postpartum that i never thought I'd be. I felt doing things on my own most of the time and when my son is already a year and 6 months old, I finally started to assess myself and realized through reseach that I might have slight postpartum stress and if I am not willing to deal and overcome it, my health might get affected.
How did I deal with it:
You should be able to assess your behaviour before you got pregnant and after pregnancy. I was a happy and possitive person before I got pregnant. I don't easily hold grudges or anger. After giving birth my sisters kept telling me that I easily get irritated and easy to get angry. I ignored it, untill I found out and accepted that trully I have changed and I don't want to be drowned by resentment, anger and negative emotions.
I have searched in the internet and notice that I may be struck by postpartum stress. I was willing to change and wanted to release stress.
2. I take exercise. I do sumba dance or jog even my son goes around with me. It was fun to do it with him.
3. Take a lot of prayer. I do pray after exercising or when walking up in the morning and before sleeping at night. The first few days was really difficult but when I contunue doing my prayer session I've noticed that I don't easily get angry anymore nor think of bad things people do to me or even think of negative.
My prayer:
Lord, I don't want this feeling: resentment, anger, negative thoughts,unforgiveness.
I am having hard time dealing with it and please forgive me of keeping these feelings,
allowing it overcome my thoughts, just can't stop it.
You said that ask at it shall be given unto you.
I bow down before you today, to please send Your Holy Spirit,
wash me from my sin...cleanse me whiter than the snow,
I asked by the power of the blood of Jesus, that your blood flows through my brain where it cleanses the part where I always remember bad things that people do to me small or big. Please let me forget it, and give me the grace to forgive. Please cleanse my brain that I can remember good things that people do to me small or big and I can always remember fun memories. I don't want to be separated from you Lord. You are my saviour and magnificient God and I believe that you will heal me and you will continue to bless me. I asked this in the Mighty name of Jesus! Amen and Amen..
These steps really worked for me.. and i think I don't need to see a doctor.
