Anxiety Bc Ocd
My anxiety & OCD is out of control now that I’m pregnant…ne one else w/ the same problem?
I was diagnosed with slight OCD and anxiety back in the early part of 2007. I got off of medication bc it didn’t seem to help much at all. Now that I am pregnant it is back with a vengeance. I am currently 12 weeks and I worry about everything. If my baby’s fine, if my health is fine, the ocd is terrible. I have the driving related ocd. Scared to drive thinking I have run over someone or hit something and have to turn around 4 or 5 times b4 I can get home. Of course I never do but my mind is always saying “What if”. Not sure what meds I can take since I am pregnant. Was going to ask the doc. yesterday but initially forgot once I heard my baby’s heart beat for the first time. Thought about it afterwards. What can I do? I am scared all the time and worry constantly. Ne one else have the same problem?
OMG yes! I have Bipolar/manic depression and panic disorder.
Believe me I no what your going through. I’m just about to drive everyone nuts here at my house. I feel so bad. I am a worrier all I do is worry I cant watch those deliver me on discovery health channel because I will go into a panic attack. I was on a lot of meds, and its very hard now. But what keeps me strong is that knowing that my baby IS ok and that I am ok and we are going to be fine, I drink lots of water and lock myself up in my room sometimes, hey need to talk I’m here it would be nice to know someone that understands.
