Hi, I'm 32 weeks pregnant with my second child. I was very sick until 20 wks (in & out of hospital) & I got very severely depressed as a result. Had to go home to my Mum's for several weeks while (unemployed) husband looked after our 3 yr old, so my Mum could look after me.
I've been back home now for several weeks & I'm still really struggling. I am on 50mg Setroline from the doctor (going to see her today to see if I can up it), but everyday is a struggle - I wake up feeling extremely anxious & full of fear for the day ahead. And on top of this I feel really low. I feel totally unlike myself - like I Have no inner strength - just struggling. Three days ago things got really bad again & I just couldn't get out of bed with the severe depression. I'm now getting so worried that I'm still so depressed & only eight weeks to go until baby is born. I don't know how I am going to cope when I'm in this state of not even being able to get out of bed myself. Please help me & offer any advice/similar experiences.
