Benadryl Rocks |
Sep 19 2010 |
So I've been trying to wean off my medication because I want to have a baby and they cause birth defects. Right now I have extremely horrible withdrawel that leads to severe mania, dissiness and brainshocks. It was really bad last night and I was having all these raising thoughts and urges. Anyway I called my sister who works at a mental hospital to see what the doctor there could advice me to do. She called back and told me to take benadryl twice the dose. I did and it helped by knocking me out. I woke up the next day feeling much better. Thanks Benadryl!

Sorry you're going through this, yes withdrawal is the pitts! There are some meds that you can stay on until you fall pregnant, speak to your OB and pdoc. I found out I was (unplanned) pregnant when taking hectic meds. Yes, I was worried but my daughter is a healthy 5 year old with no probs. There are lot of BP II moms and ladies trying to fall preggy, we're here when you need us. All the best 
Thanks I wondered if anyone else got pregnant on there meds and what happened to the baby. But hearin gthat your daughter is healthy gives me some relief. How were you during pregnancy? Stable? Manic or depressed? I'm wondering how I'll be off the meds
