PPD/PPA

I know I don't post much but Thanks to everyone who gave me support this week. I went to the OB and talked about how i was feeling, he prescribed meds and had me go talk to someone. The therapist thought I didn't need the Zoloft right away based on our conversations but I was really anxious Wednesday night so I decided to take it. Thursday i felt awful, I was foggy, didn't wanna move, felt like I was in a haze all day, anxious, a pounding headache and my pupils were huge. The doctor on call said I might be too sensitive to the meds so to hold the dose and call the therapist in the AM, which I did. SHe told me to cut the dose, but after the way it made me feel the first night I decided that I was gonna just try talk therapy. I also told my close friends and family so I would have support if I became anxious when my husband was at work. I think knowing I can call my family and friends has eased some of the anxiety. It sucks, but I know this isn't forever.
No point to my post other than thanks for the support!
