Dear All!

It will be 6 weeks since I gave birth to our beautiful daughter, Franciska, however I find to struggle more in the past 2 weeks after the initial shock period. I can be functional for 1-2 hours, and then crying session and emptiness. Tonight was the first night I was supposed to be alone as my husband went away for a night with friends and I actually believed I can manage one night completely alone but grief and anxiety sneaked up on me and got an anxiety/panic attack, and it felt super frightening, also the thoughts coming with it. I feel so hopeless and sad. :( I am in therapy, however I do not really feel at this raw stage that it would help.

Maybe, does anyone have any advice?

❤️‍🩹 thank you
