This is probably a dumb question but how do I talk to my doctor about feeling depressed and having anxiety attacks it’s been going on for a while got a lot worse once I found out I was pregnant I have attacks probably 3-4 times a month never felt this way with my first
Literally tell them what you said on this post. I took medication, it helped. But keep it mind different people need different doses/types of meds. And there’s no way of know exactly how much you need. Sometimes it takes a while to find the right dosage.
Just say “I’ve been feeling depressed lately. What can I do?” She will take it from there!
I’ve been wondering that as well. Like how do I bring it up to my OB 😔 ?
Yeah, just say it. I finally came clean with my doctor and he gave me medicine while I was pregnant.
@aubjan, honestly, I only took them for a little while. He gave me small dose to take for a week and a stronger does to take the way of the time. I heard people say the meds made them emotionless and I didn’t wanna be like that cuz I still had my daughter to take care of so I stopped taking them.
I just prayed a lot and had a big support system that help me through it
Just say you haven’t been feeling your best self lately and then they will ask you some questions so you can go into detail xx
At my OB appointments my nurse would always ask if I had any concerns I wanted to discuss with the doc. Just tell your nurse you have been having issues with anxiety or when you see the doc, Just tell them
