Postpartum anxiety

I am having the absolute worst time with postpartum anxiety, it hits me like a freight train at the most random times, causing panic attacks, profuse crying, making me feel sick to my stomach. I really hate this and I need it to just go away…

Hey girly, I understand as someone who has super bad anxiety. We can be friends and you can talk to me if you would like 💘

I used to have panic attacks all the time.

@Kara I would love that actually

Sorry you’re dealing with that! I’ve been in the same boat and know the exact feeling you’re going through!! It’s debilitating! Are you still nursing or pumping? There are some supplements that can help but idn if they are nursing safe. Have you talked to your OB about it?

@Danielle im not nursing or pumping, im using formula because i started having so much anxiety towards breastfeeding that it was safer to do formula, i know this feeling goes away eventually because i was like this with my son and i turned out okay, its just in the moment it feels like it lasts forever

I completely agree!! A couple things that help me in the moment when it feels unbearable are this tea (I put two bags in my cup) and a these supplements https://rstyle.me/+0-2XmaqIDZTzxBK25It3-Q https://rstyle.me/+a6CBLsqCBqc6ryuEFrOSBQ

Absolute same. I’m also made to feel like I can pick and choose the times it’s up and down, but I can’t. Just because taking my baby hours away from me (whether I’m at work or not) isn’t a small thing to you, it’s a huge deal to me. I’m just lucky I have an amazing manager who’s able to switch days off for me and I can’t thank her enough for that
