I would need to know a few more details..whether you have a past history of the same, any medication tried earlier, whether breastfeeding or not
Depending on the above, you might need to be started on medication while ensuring that you could still breastfeed
For milder conditions, therapy also can be attempted
Next Steps
Consult a psychiatrist at the earliest
