Please help as I really need peoples experiences

[joyce1980]

I went off my paroxetine to have a baby but my HA started a few months after being off it.

I couldn't deal with the Ha any more and went back on my medication.

I know in the next year or so I will try again for a baby but I need medication to function and be happy.

What is safe to take?????

When I have bad Ha I can bearly eat drink or funtion the last bought of ha I had lost me 1 stone and I now weight 7.5 stone !!!! too skinny.

When on meds I can rationalise and be normal, even help others but off im no good to anyone or myself.

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place really, When it's time to try again i will see a Dr but at the moment I am just putting my feelers out for experiences others have had with pregnancy and meds.

Thank you.

I'm really sorry to hear that :(

I'd probably give seeing a specialist and trying some CBT therapy stuff a go - see if you can work on your mind and your thoughts rather than via drugs, at least to last you through pregnancy.

Hello,

thanks for your answer..... well to update:

I am doing cbt as well plus i finally got the appointment with a neurologist and he is quite adament that I have an overactive thyroid!!! he is also testing me for some sort of problem where the body can't get rid of copper but he doesn't seem to think it will be a problem

Neurologicaly I'm fine, I will also see how the cbt goes, I am trying everything.

Thanks
