Post Body

I have always had depression but managed mostly without meds. I'm almost in my third trimester and really struggling. I recently lost my job (partially due to my mental health issues) and I need to find a new one. I'm not in a good state to get or start a job.

I know people take antidepressants during pregnancy but I feel so guilty about thinking I should start when I can at least wait 3 more months until baby is out. Having a lot of dark thoughts but I know I won't act on them. Just scared of the job situation and tired of feeling so miserable.

Any meds you've taken while preg?
