Breastfeeding dilemma

When my baby was 2 mths old my breastmilk was drying and only manage to pump for 3 to 4 feedings a day. It was due to stress and insufficient sleep and rest causing my milk supply to drop. My girl has been formula fed ever since and now she is at 4mths + I am feeling depressed and guilty still for not able to provide her breastmilk. Any of mummies here facing same issue? Can anyone please share if your children grow up well even with formula milk? My first baby hence the anxiety.

I think I’m one of the best example? I grew up with formula milk and I think I’m still as smart, healthy and have sense of humour? Hahaha oh my mother was breastmilk fed while my aunts were on formula milk but my aunts are doing very well in life for both career and health? Haha Also my current baby, I didn’t really breastfeed because it caused me alot of mental stress and depression. So I stopped and I think it was right because my mental health is very important too. Why feel guilty about it? ❤️
