Jumping in to say so sorry about your grandma bimbi284,

Cheap, cheap holiday party for my department today. If the department hasn't changed personnel size in the last year, how do you not have enough seats where 40 people have to stand and eat their lunch? Ridiculous. And also, who has a year-end party in December OUTSIDE?

[sfy]

My response applies to the last two posts, @natariru and childofhiphop: Cold world !

My work holiday party is going to be at a vegan Mexican restaurant.

Let me say that again....

A vegan Mexican restaurant.

It's because two of my workers are gluten free and are picky as hell. We had our building holiday party - Italian food - and the most annoying one ended up with a damn sausage on her plate. Why? Because Caesar salad dressing has gluten in it, the meatballs have gluten. She's the type that forgets to eat lunch, so there's really no saving her. So annoying.

Who knew there was even such a thing as vegan Mexican? I can see a few dishes but a whole restaurant?

Can you at least drink? Our holiday party was AT a brewery IN the whiskey room and we weren't allowed to drink because it was during work time. Five minutes before I was officially off the clock and allowed to drink I got a call saying extended care was closing early because of snow and I had to leave.

I know I have a lot going on that's super stressful but I'm starting to wonder if 7 months is too late to have PPD.

No, it's not. I'm sorry you are struggling. Please talk with you HCP. (((Hugs)))

Not too late. Please talk to your OB or primary care doctor. Take care of yourself.

Technically, according to the current DSM classification for peripartum onset of a depressive episode (what used to be called postpartum depression), yes, 7 months is too late. The window is now 4 weeks postpartum for that specifier to apply, which I think is bullshit. The specifier is just that though, and really only useful for documentation of a diagnosis for reimbursement. It would be considered just plain ol' depressive disorder, though, so please speak with a mental health provider.
