So I know this is personal and if you don't wanna come to you can private message me. Today I got prescribed a anti anxiety and anti depressants. But I'm still breastfeeding and don't plan to stop but the pharmacist said there was a "possible" toxicity build up in my milk. Any one experience this?!anyone have advice?

@sarahemccormick, of course do research, just a suggestion. I don't consume dairy so that's why I've never had any issues with it. I've dealt with depression and anxiety since I was extremely young. I also have PTSD. Used to take meds and switched to St. John's wort because I just don't like the idea of constant medication, but I'm in the same boat where I don't take anything because I breastfeed. St. John's wort is considered safe for breastfeeding but I prefer not to take anything too :)

@mamesey she should definitely do some research before taking that, although it's natural, it's considered an MAOI drug and can have severe side effects of taken with or while conauming any sort of dairy in her diet at all. @sofiaismyworld I understand depression and anxiety, Ive been dealing with it all my life. Im on Paxil but wont take it because of that reason, the toxicity buildup. Although its safe for breastfed babies SUPPOSEDLY, I dont want to risk that..So Im going ned free, and dealing with it in other ways.

Try St. John's Wort. It's natural and it is considered safe for breastfeeding. It helps anxiety and depression
