The one thing that was extremely frustrating to me when I started taking the medication was that I needed help NOW and the meds just don’t work that way. It took a full 6 weeks for mine to kick in. I started with Celexa, which for me sucked. I was on it for 2 weeks and then insisted it be changed because the cure was worse than the affliction. I was switched to Zoloft and for me it really helped with the anxiety. A few months ago I switched to a very low dosage of Prozac and it really works for me.

Also, even though I got some really judgmental feedback from some, I also found out that soo many people had been through similar things. I even found out that my mother is on Zoloft and I didn’t know. She didn’t tell me because apparently I can be very judgmental. Live and learn.

I feel kind of ashamed too.but in reading this, I say, you have nothing to be ashamed of. so I guess I shouldn’t.
glad you got some new clothes 🙂

Also, the medication while being pregnant is something that so many women deal with. I was on it too. 🙁 But at some point you weight the options; healthy momma and healthy baby or healthy baby with a psycho momma. :/

Oh in my drunken stupor I missed the big announcement. I am so happy for you! YEAH YEAH! (I love the comment by lifewithkaishon by the way. 🙂 )

Please tell Papi to continue to make up words. We’ve got his back. LOL. You should also add those words to Urban Dictionary which is now my favorite dictionary. 😉

A dear friend had a similar experience and also felt all the shame and guilt that you described. I was appalled at how many people, who were not even medical professionals, thought it was their right to tell her what to do. Pregnant women are not public property! – G

i didn't experience panic attacks until after i had my first baby 3 years ago. i wasn't even sure what was happening at the time, but the anxiety is awful. with the help of my therapist, we're making it through…good luck to you!

YAY!!! I too love Kaiser! I had them with all 3 of my pregnancies. My first pregnancy left me on bedrest for about the a month & 1/2 or so due to high blood pressure. I wasn't good at bed rest & ended up having my daughter 3 1/2 weeks early & a emergency c section to boot. Pregnency #2 pretty routine & then #3 I ended up with gestational diabetes. Kaiser was on top of every single issue & gave the BEST care. I hope you have great care throughout this pregnancy as well!
Oh & rock on Papi… love the new words but LOVE even more he suprised you with a lil shopping!

Now if I could only remember to say fudiculous instead of usual f-bomb version I might get less backlash from my wife.

I can understand feeling ambigous about being on medication during a pregnancy. They wanted me to take prozac, but I didn't really think I needed it so I declined. It would seem to me if the medications are safe, and you need it to be 100%, then you should take them. Here's hoping you have a very smooth pregrnancy.
