Hi everyone
Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself.
I'm 'MrsMe' and am in my late 20's and have been suffering from lots of problems since childhood including OCD, emetophobia, anxiety and panic, depression, self harm, anorexia nervosa.
I was doing really well and coping a LOT better and made a lot of progress but since having a baby at the end of last year some of my issues have come back with a vengance, mainly my emetophobia and anxiety.
It has kind of come to a head recenetly and I am desperate to sort it all out for our baby. The last thing I want is her picking up any of my 'issues'. She is my motivation to get this all sorted out before it gets out of control again. I worked so hard to get better before we made the decision to have a family and feel angry that this is happening now, especially as we went through a lot to have our beautiful daughter.
Last week I went back on antidepressants after my GP said she thinks I have some post natal depression (but I'm not so sure - I think it might just be past stuff) but I had a horrible reaction to it and had to stop on Sunday. I've been on many AD's before but right now the options are limited as I'm still breast feeding.
Anyway, sorry for waffling on there! I hope to find much support and advice here and be able to offer some in return :)
