Anyone else struggle with postpartum anxiety?

Yeah I know that term usually applies to moms but I swear I have it too. My second kid was born 3 months ago and ever since I've had this constant background anxiety. Not about the baby specifically, just like a general sense of dread. I'm doing okay otherwise, work is fine, marriage is fine, but something feels off in my head. I've been considering talking to someone about it but I'm not sure if that's overkill or if this is normal new dad stuff.

You're definitely not alone man. Second kid here too and I had similar stuff going on, that constant background anxiety about whether everything's okay. Derek from my coaching group mentioned the same thing after his second - it's real and worth talking to your doctor about.
