How to deal with depression during pregnancy? It's not really …

I’m 4 months and 2 days pregnant and feeling depressed and I’m worried that it might bring on postpartum depression.

I was feeling a little sick and all of a sudden these thoughts popped into my head and before I knew it I was in tears, feeling like everything is going wrong and feeling so far beyond unattractive. I’ve started doubting my relationship, and I am unable to trust my partner even though nothing in our relationship has changed, and he hasn’t done anything recently that would trigger these thoughts.

Could this just be hormones? Or could this be the start of depression?

ok well ive had depression and some anxiety in the past, and ive been abe to hande and work through it.. but ever since i got pregnant…i have been diagnosed as having manic-depression episodes possibly bi-polar,my docotr didnt exactly say that(the bi polar part) but other people when i explained it said bi polar.. i guess….like i have never been the same emotionaly since i had the baby i flip out in an instant,i felt like i had demons in my head when i had an episode,cuz too me that was not me talkin i would not be like that, and severly depressed mostly with the thoughts in my head…and i guess i associate bi polar with being nuts and i never seen myself as nuts i just got super sensitive..like i cry alot sometimes i dont know why ill be fine one day and aying in bed the next…so if anyone coud me know if bi polar can come out after pregnancy or not i could more forward in my healing
i do go into highs and lows …..but lately the highs dont last long .like i used to be fine for months at a time then i would be sad for a few weeks and vise versa..and i dont do crazy impulses ,i do go out and spend a little money
but i also dont quite understand what highs/lows mean or the difference and how to know if its a bipolar high/low ???? oh and ive tried celexa,lexapro,zoloft,abilify,seroquel, and none worked(made me worse or i didnt like the side effects) and now im on lithium and ive never felt better .i feel calmer,not like im gonna snap!!

my husband crazy probably….im irrational, happy one minute and lowest of the low the next…any ideas?
