I just read through the comments. Thank you everyone so much. I feel so small compared to the great women on this website. This has been a strength to me in many ways.

Thank you for sharing your personal experiences with these difficult trials, Hiroko. I think the more we can realize how we all have our struggles, the more we can feel hope in being able to face them.

I, too, suffered from depression with my second baby. After my doctor prescribed medication, I felt unbelievably better. The chemical imbalance went away after the post-partum period.

However, if it hadn’t, I would have continued taking the medication.

I am so glad you recognized that you needed help and prayed for guidance. You, Hiroko, are an inspiration to women everywhere.

Hiroko, Thank you for your honesty!
Never thought about asking for a priesthood blessing to help, but it totally makes sense!

Hiroko, Thank you for being so open with your life and problems. I know many women will find your story and be helped (even if they aren’t quite brave enough to comment). Thanks for allowing me to be a part of getting your story out.

love you!
