so before I got pregnant I was on Xanax. my ptsd anexity an depression are horrible tonight. an benadryl isn't working. what can I take
Oh wait, @gingyrex my blood pressure is already low so I'll get really dizzy from that :(
Ask your doctor about a beta-blocker like mitroprolol. It lowers your heart rate and helps keep you calm. I'm currently on it for a heart issue and I've noticed my anxiety is also a lot better! Its good for your heart too. My cardiologist said everyone should take a beta-blocker lol. It CAN worsen depression, however, so if you have chronic depression it might not be a perfect fit.
Benadryl is a mild sedative, the drug "diphenhydramine" which is benadryl is what is in Tylenol PM and many other sleep aids. It CAN help ease anxiety, but it isn't a sure thing. @beautifulmess081316
@alessamarie98, baby girl I think your doctor is an idiot. Benadryl is for allergies.
Idk but if you find something that really works plz let me know!! I was taken off xanax before I got pregnant but my anxiety has gotten terrible. I'll be trying the lavender oil too!
Lavender oil on the bottom of your feet. It's safe to use undiluted and just breath it in.
lavender oil helps to naturally relieve anxiety. when I had anxiety I would use the oil, put on music, and try to sleep. and if you can't sleep you should ask your doctor about trying unisom. I only took it once but it helped. my doc said it was fine.
@beautifulmess081316, my dr said to take benadryl
Dear that not going to work like that that's for allergies.
Nothing really. Take a bubble bath or hot shower. That's what I would do. And listen to some party music. 😊
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
@michellevaldez4750, can't hurt to ask. Next time you see your doctor you should ask him about alternative anxiety medicines.
