Pnd still and baby is 18mnths old :(

[Bea38]

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this but here goes.........
I developed really bad anxiety when I was pregnant with my son ( although at the time I didn't realise) When my son was 3mnths old I started to experience tingling hands which made me think I would drop him, the thoughts of bad things happening to him spiralled out of control from there, I couldn't leave the house for fear that I might have an accident or cause him harm, but I hated being alone too at home. I felt like I was looking after someone else's baby. I would care for him but not feel that rush of love that u get with your child. I have tried various cbt and groups, medication etc but my son is now 18mnths old and I am still struggling on a daily basis. I feel so sad everyday and useless. Is there anyone else out there that is or has gone through similar? Feeling very alone right now x

Nothing to add, just wanted to give you a bump up to the top of Active Convos again.

Have you tried posting in the Mental Health topic? I think it's a bit busier over there.

I hope you're ok x

Two things - one, BUMP! Come on MN!

Two - I've PMd you, if you want to reply (don't feel you have to) but at the top of your screen, above the Mumsnet logo, is 'Log Out' and 'Inbox' - it should have a red star/asterix, this means you have a message.

Sorry, am not stalking you, I promise, just concerned that you are ok.
