Anxiety and panic attacks while pregnant
Currently on my second pregnancy and been dealing with a lot of anxiety and panic attacks I believe from hormones. Was hoping to just make a friend or talk with someone going through similar feelings. I’m due March 16th and just started my 2nd trimester. 32 year old female
31 year old female who just had my second. I’ve struggled with anxiety for over a decade. Just wanted to say it gets better and therapy helps. I hope it gets better for you!
Thanks so much. It’s hard for me to navigate the spikes in hormones with intrusive thoughts it’s like a vicious circle. I have had good days but never have had to deal with so much anxiety in short span of time. I keep telling myself it will be over when I have the baby but I even worry about that.
Hi, I actually had the same experience when I was pregnant. I would burst out in tears sometimes, and have anxiety attacks. When the anxiety was about my concerns about parenting my husband would comfort me. But I felt better when I was given an antidepressant that was safe during pregnancy. It helped me sleep better as well.
That’s exactly what I’m going through. I’m currently already on a antidepressant but hoping there will be an adjustment or another medication or something. I see them next week. This week has been such a struggle. I did not have this experience with my first pregnancy.
