in TTC After a Loss
i had a bad case of PPanxiety after my last LO and got put on zoloft 50mg to help. It has made a night and day difference! This past week or so I can feel my anxiety thru my meds and its horrible. anyone who dealt with anxiety i am sure they can relate! I am hoping now that i started maybe it will go down bc i think maybe i was worrying about what was going to happen this month. I know I shouldn't have lurked onto the 2nd trimester board either bc i saw people on there that were where i was :( all it does is makes me think about what would have been. really sucks! i would have been 15 weeks this week and would be getting ready to feel the baby ( i always felt both of mine early). i was doing so good lately and kinda slipped this past week....gosh i hope this passes Crying

    Awww honey, I'm so sorry! That darned anxiety is awful and really hard to deal with it.  I've been doing a lot of reading and self-exploration since my m/c.  It's really been a wonderful time of personal growth.  But one thing I've read that is very powerful is this statement "I can choose peace rather than this".  That statement has become almost a personal mantra, and I find myself repeating it in my head when I feel the anxiety getting worse. Good luck to you!!!

    i thank you for that comment! i think that is sooo true! i think anxiety is totally built on perspective! i try to have a positive outlook on life and it usually helps but i have worrying about my period coming and about weather to go back to school so lots of unneeded stress!

    I completely understand the anxiety. I think a lot of us have been guilty of looking in on where we should be, so don't be too hard on yourself. I know it's so hard, and I'm sorry it made your heart hurt. (hugs)

    thanks hun! i know i shouldn't!! I should stay positive and think of the future but as everyone knows that is hard sometimes! i guess i should consider myself lucky that my period decided to show on time! i need to start charting but never have done it so not real sure how yet need to research it!

    I am sorry that your anxiety is resurfacing.  Maybe call your therapist/prescribing doctor to talk about it.  Also be aware of your triggers and try your best to avoid them (I know easier said than done).  Reframe your thinking as best as possible and talk to us !

    I have anxiety and was on meds till I got PG.  I will not be going back on at this point, b/c TCC right now.

    Just yesterday I was searching natural ways (not vit or herbs) ways to help control my anxiety.  And decided that my diet soda intake may really be hurting me, due to the caffeine and artificial sweeteners.  So today is my first day of not drinking any.  I would also like to start reducing my sugars, which should also help (and help with my weight).  But one thing at a time.

    I am so sorry you are feeling that way.  It is so horrible.  Let me know if you ever need to talk, it makes me feel better talking about it.  DH has a hard time understanding (he tries), but it is good to talk with others that get it.
