Oh Sweety, you had what is called a fugue state. That is what some people ball a black out. First and foremost Please understand that what happened is not your fault! You are not selfish! You are not weak minded or any other negative thing you can think of.You just had a baby and your chemicals are all out of whack!You need medications to correct this chemical imbalance.Therapy is also helpful. Yo may not need these forever just for a short time. This is very serious! Get help right away. Don't worry about the cost! Most hospitals can refer you to the nearest mental health care center. These centers provide mental health care on a sliding scale according to your income. They can also help you get the medications you may need (by referring you to the right place)You owe your getting help to your sweet baby boy and husband.
Despite money or not you need to go. They may like to get paid but that dont mean they have to. I have several bills that arent paid but one day they will be paid. You need to get yourself straight for that new baby.
MONEY IS NOT THE ISSUE HERE. THe issue is you need to go see a doc NOW for help as your son's life is in danger if this ever happens again and your husband is not home. PLEASE PLEASE GO GET HELP NOW!
You HAVE to go to a doctor. Borrow the money, I'm sure parents and other relatives would be more than happy to give you money if it meant saving your life.
There are ways to get around the money situation. Seriously, you should've called 911. You need to get away from your son before you kill him. Go online, look in a phone book, call family. Do something. I pray you find the help you need and send blessings your way.
There are FREE CLINICS out there. GO, your life, your son's life may depend on it. You need to find out what's going on.
Have you been taking drugs? Usually, pot, LSD, or cocaine can cause them. Er, I really hope you feel better. How to cure it...well, doctors can do that. How about you call the doctors and ask what medicines you can buy from Walmart/Giant/CVS that would help your symptoms.
I do hope you get better!

Please get help now. Check the phone book or ask someone to direct you to social services in your area. You may or may not have depression. It's hard to diagnose by yourself. Ask your husband to help if he can by talking things through with you so you can try to think straight before things get out of control again. Don't put your child, yourself, your husband or marriage at risk. There's help out there. Even the board of health or free clinic can help of direct you somewhere.
Go to your local hospitol,they cannot refuse you treatmnt.THey may want to admit you but thats ok! dont worry about money just get yourself checked out .
First of all, check with your county human services department to see if there is assistance for people who cannot afford health insurance. You might also try a Catholic hospital or some other institution that handles charity cases. Some doctors even do "pro bono" work at times, i.e., for the public good, having clinics in poor neighborhoods that they visit once a week or something like that.
Next of all, don't assume that you were trying to kill yourself. Granted, that might have been the cause, but it could also have been a symptom of a neurological problem. Yes, it could be postpartum depression on steroids, but I'm not a doctor and a doctor is the only one who can give you the guidance you need right now.
I see that you do have a lot to live for. Good luck.
Please get help from a doctor. You need to see a psychiatrist immediately, because. you are a danger to yourself. Did any incident provoked this situation? Don't worry about hospital bills for now, don't we all have bills? You should be able to get around that and get free mental health evaluation and therapy. You need to take care of yourself for that baby. Good luck to you.
I'm glad your husband was home. What if this happened when you were alone with your 4 month old?
Get help. Many hospitals will help you without charging. Go and get help now.
Don't ever be left alone with your child until you get help. It may be post partum depression or something else. Let the doctors decide. They can help you so you can feel safe with your child.
Best of luck to you and your family. You and your family are in my prayers.
YES...go to a local ministry they will help you for free...please get help its never too late to start helping yourself..tomorow is a new day to wake up and see the world and your place in it .you are important no matter what you believe about yourself right now.seek spirituality ..God will take care of you..He has a plan for you and its better than you ever imagined..hang in there you will be happy you did..
If you wanted to kill yourself, you would be dead. If you want to stop thinking about killing yourself, get help, there is free help out there. Stop being stressful. Surround yourself with good things. Identify your problems, but don't tackle them all at once. The fact that you used this method, and not something that actually works (can't change your mind with a bullet in the brain), proves this is either a cry for attention, or a cry for help. Once you get out of denial and agree to one of those scenarios, you'll be on track to figuring things out, and know what to do next. For the sake of your child, I hope you get help and be a good mother.
Stop worrying about being selfish...you weren't. You need help and you need it NOW.
You could very well be experiencing post-partum depression; I've been there and it's hell, though I didn't have this violent of a reaction.
Go to a hospital, immediately. The lives of everyone in your home depends on it. If the doctor wants you admitted, don't argue. Get help. NOW!
Best wishes.
yes, i'm a male, married & i have been in that situation before 16yrs ago... i drank a glassful of insecticide after i knocked down a bottle of chivas.
i hate the world that day... we had a quarrel, i got sooooooooooooooo angry i want to disappear on earth... so, i did it... i was confined in a hospital for 1 week...
now, i could say i'm doing fine... and all i can tell you is... "think of a good future ahead of you... don't let the bad things let you down... i know you.ve heard this before... maybe a thousand friends, relatives, neighbors, and maybe your son (if he can only talk) will say this to you.
"hey, get yourself useful!"...
Well, hon, you should be scared. No insult intended. You ARE going to have to go to the health department and get some help. Blacking out is a a sign that all IS NOT RIGHT. Delayed postpartum? I don't know and it doesn't matter, does it? Black out rage is bad, especially when there is an infant involved.
If you love the lil guy(and I know you do!) go , seek, find, MAKE them listen. Lil man needs a healthy, happy mommy.
Good luck to you,

You sound really depressed. There are usually free clinics that can refer you somewhere. Also what about medicaid or family health plus? You should talk to someone before you end up hurting your baby.
You really need to access treatment asap. If you blacked out and you slashed your wrists and don't remember doing that or other events, there's a good chance you have a dissociative disorder. That will not get better without treatment! Consider the ramifications here if your husband had not been home and what could happen to your infant.
Most local mental health clinics operate on a sliding fee basis if you have no insurance and Catholic Charities will provide treatment at low cost or no cost, depending on your financial situation, as long as your local one provided counseling services.
You are in trouble with yourself.. Get help NOW. there is an infant to take care of, and if you can't take care of yourself then you are not going to be able to meet the needs of your little baby.
If you do not even remember going off, that is even more dangerous. Your baby could be harmed without you even intending it to happen.
Please do not hesitate to seek out professional help !
