Pregnancy and Depression Do Not Go Together
posted 7th Nov
I've been having horrible depression lately . I've been depressed long before I got pregnant, but it's getting worse and worse . I have melt downs and black outs . Just yesterday I left my fiance for no reason, just packed some clothes and took off walking . He knows that it's just my hormones and not really me, or so he says . but I just feel so horrible . I can't help my freak outs . It's not fair . What do I do ??

Go to a dr and get some meds.There are some that are safe for pregnancy.It doesn't have to be forever but if you feel this out of control it might be best for you,your so,and your relationship to consider it.

Are you on any meds? I take effexor and love it! I've been on it for 10 years. I also suffer from bi polar. You need to see a Dr. and find some options cause there is aLOT of help out there...there is no need to suffer!

seriously, go to the doctor and get on meds. trust me, for your sake and the baby its best. i didnt do that before i gave birth to my son and i wish i had.
the damn hormones are bad when ur pregnant, but even worse after!! if you take meds now, it will help once you have your baby. im 5 weeks pp and finally feeling better, but only thanks to the meds.
good luck, PM if you want to talk.
