So I have OCD, which contributed to a major depressive episode several years ago. I take Prozac and have built up my self-care toolkit a ton and through lots of therapy my OCD is now sub-clinical. I do constantly fear a depression relapse because that was horrible. While I don't think I am relapsing or anything like that, I just have to vent because this pregnancy is just so triggering! The vomiting, nausea, and sheer exhaustion.... especially the sleepiness and lack of energy to do things I would otherwise do... it's just such a reminder of what that felt like several years ago. Anyone experiencing anything similar?
