Postpartum anxiety

Hello I am 5 days postpartum from a c section and my anxiety is so bad I cry about 4 times a day everyday about nothing really and I obsess over anything that scares me like I feel like I have pain in my legs so then I obsesses that something is really wrong and the same with my heart I have pulpatations from constant worry and then I sit and over think that I will have a heart attack from worrying so much about my heart . Does anyone else feel this ?

I had this really bad with my kids, speak to your doc and they can help with some beta blockers c

Is there someone that could stay with you to help you out? Like cook, clean, etc while you recover and take care of baby? It sounds like it was a bit of a traumatic experience and you’re still healing (physically and emotionally) a counsellor can also help ❤️

Hi Darcy, I’m sorry you’re going thru such a tough time. I had really bad anxiety a couple years ago but healed myself without medication. I just kept telling a mantra to myself that everything is okay and everyone is safe. That I am safe.
