I am speaking based on my wife's experience.
If this is post-partum depression, it is a medical condition. It is a hormone imbalance in the brain. It can be treated with medication that you would only need to take in the short term.
My wife refused to do so because she wanted to deal with things "naturally" and avoid pharmaceutical products.
As a result, she had a complete breakdown, got committed to the psych ward (with a toddler at home) and after being released has been on heavy doses of anti - psychotic and antidepressant drugs for over 30 years.
Please see a medical professional as soon as you can. They are used to dealing with this.
