I was diagnosed with post partum about 2 years ago, I was on meds but couldn't afford to stay on them when we los tour insurance. For a while I did ok keeping myself afloat but as time goes on I am havvign more and more trouble coping with anything. I'm mad for no reason...so mad that I just want to break something, so mad that it just hurts. I want to get back to myself, to being upbeat and positive..I think I need to see someone, but I don't have insurance right now and, aside from the yellow pages, I don't even know where to begin.

Cap is right about talking to your doc. I used to be a doctors aide and one of my main priorities was to contact med companies upon a patients behalf. Many drug companies have free or reduced costs for meds. They are easy to enroll in and if your doctors office won't help you then you can contact the drug company on your own via email, phone or in writing. Many of them have the information on their website.
I wish you luck sweetie-we are here for you!
