Anxiety meds- feeling shame

I have been feeling anxious due to a lot of uncertainty in my life right now. Is it weird to feel shame in accepting I need them and taking them? I feel that admitting the need would label me as unstable- not fit to be a mom.

Nope! I am on anxiety meds and actually feel really proud of my self for recognising I needed that extra help.

If someone you knew told you they were taking anxiety meds would you think they were not fit to be a mum?

@Jenni not at all.

I used to feel broken that I required help or therapy. This time round was probably the first time I didnt feel that way.

Absolutely not!!! Admitting you need help is the bravest and strongest thing you can do! Accept that help and don't be ashamed at all!! You are amazing and don't forget that!! These toddlers are little terrors that don't help most of the time!
