My doc prescribed me anti ds after Rubys birth, I was struggling and felt very low/anxious. They have helped me enormously. I have previously taken them before pregnancy after a marriage break up and major health scare. I stopped them when I was TTCing

Hope you are soon feeling better, dont feel you have to take them i you dont want to, there are ther options such as counselling etc....

Sending hugsxxxxx

I take them, and ive managed to ween myself down to half the dose i was taking quite quickly. i didn't want to become too depended on them, so i made a point of after taking them for 4 weeks, to reduce the dose myself (if that makes sense). i don't feel ready to stop, but i feel they help me.

speak to your doc about your options... there are loads of different groups etc around that can help. i went to one that helped me LOADS.
