Have you tried the deep breathing..lol..you need to practice that anyway for when you baby arrives..  I know from experience be pregnant seems to bring out the anxiety in a person..I would just try to relax any way you can...how about meditation? {hugs}

I would speak to your Dr, if your panics are more intense because of your pregnancy, there must be things you can do naturally. So sorry to hear your nd doesn't understand, I know too well how that is. Breathe slowly, think of your beautiful baby you will soon be holding in your arms. this will pass I am not a Doctor, Nurse or Medical Professional. Im not even Dr. Seuss, Dr. Dolittle or Dr. Dre. :) I only share advice from my own personal experiences with Panic Attack Disorder. It is soley for information purposes only, please continue to take your Doctors advice. I share what I have learned, read, experienced and know what has helped me, I share this information in hopes it will be of help or comfort to someone else. Good luck, Relax, and lets continue to support one another, and conquer panic the best way we can! :)

sorry you are having such a rough time I am 5. 1/2 months i am off all my meds but one and am working on getting off of that as well being pregnate and worring about everything else along with your body,baby,panic,stress and chemicals can be hard but rememeber panic can not harm you panic can not harm your baby yes panic sucks and is not fun but its just a feeling not an illness often times i hear people say 'i cant do this anymore' or 'this has to end' i found as soon as I realized that yes I can handle it and not only can i handle it but I dont have a choice in the matter if I am going to panic then I am going to panic and no need to fight with it and no it dont have to end but it can if you just let go and stop talking so DOWN to yourself Yes it is hard, we are here for you , but your first step is to STOP all the negitive self talk best thing I ever did was learn to talk to myself like i would talk to someone I love " i cant handle this" = " you can do this you are so strong and smart" "this has to stop"= "hun just breath you talking about it wont fix it at all" " please god help me"= "god is there to support not to do things for me i have to work for this!" give yourself a mantra that means a lot to you as in when you are IN a panic attack tells you to find your own peace mine is be still and know who you are! Telling myself to - be still= breath slow and clear my mind of all negitive thoughts know who you are= rememeber how much you have been through that is much worse than a feeling of panic and came out fine! be strong, know and rememeber who and what you are lee |

Just pray and you will be fine,try without pills if you can.Don't panic you are just confuse right now but when your baby kick first time,all your fear will go away. Bless you and your baby ))))))) A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.
Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.
Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
It is a common experience that a problem difficult at night is resolved in the morning after the committee of sleep has worked on it. |

Hi...I hope you are feeling better. My panic attacks worsened when I was pregnant with my 2nd child. The doctor put me on zoloft 50 mgs. She said it was one of the safest ones. She also gave me klonopin .5mgs to take as needed. I took a few xanax before finding out I was pregnant and it caused even more anxiety. My doctor assured me that everything would be fine and taking the drugs was better than being anxious all the time. It was not good for the baby to be anxious, sick to my stomach, and unable to eat. I took the zoloft throughout the entire pregnancy and during the 1st year of her life when I breastfed. She is perfectly healthy and an absolute joy. She is now 18 mos old. I am so glad I took the medications and remained calm and was able to enjoy my pregnancy. I will be praying you find relief from your anxiety. |

"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)
