Ah, good, it arrived *relieved* I hope you can get some nice stuff from it.
And I'm glad you feel better. In my new job, I sat in at a counselling session where the therapist told a new mom that pregnancy and birth can't go so easy that there won't be feelings of guilt. I think with what we psychologists call a "life event" as big as this, you are very much entitled to screaming and crying and bad days, no need for a big label* like depression.
Looking forward to the next newspost :)
* Though of course a label helps if you want to seek help, but that's another story, I think.
