Mental Health - Help

Does any Mom on here battle Mental Health problems? I do and a I have been for quite awhile. I had a break down yesterday, and now my whole family has turned against me because I don't want to talk too anyone.. Then of course my mother threatens to put me back in the hospital. I'm 7 weeks and I forgot how many days but how am I even still pregnant with all this stress going on. I don't see my doctor till the 13th. I'm freaking out already because I cant be on my medication because it can severely harm the baby. I don't know what else to do. help.

Thank you. The medcation that they put me on, They told me that if I keep taking my medication while being pregnant. It will kill the baby flat out. Its only medication that actually work for all my disorders. It'd be one thing if I was taking them once a day and it was just one pill, but it's 5 different pills taken 3x's a day. It's nice to know I'm not alone in this. These hormone are driving me mad. one moment I'm happy and feel like I can take on the world the next I feel lower then dirt.

I know how you feel. I was on Zoloft for the longest time. But as soon as I found out I was pregnant, I stopped taking it. It's hard to adjust at first. But, it's getting better. I cry sometimes and sometimes I'm irritable. A lot of it is just the pregnancy hormones getting the best of me. I'm going to try to do without meds. But if you talk to your doctor I'm sure there's something they can do for you.
