What some safe natural options for combating depression?

Question

I’ve been really down for this pregnancy after loss and the first trimester has me so anxious. It’s messing with my routine and it’s difficult to work from home. I’m 12w4d and hoping that’s a good sign. I do my best to at least sit outside if not walk. I have an amazing park pretty much as my backyard. I’m not sure what else to do.

Answer

Talk to your midwife about supplements. I’m in my third trimester and she put me on St. John’s Wort. It’s turned my life around. I was so depressed I couldn’t eat, now I feel like myself.

Answer

5HTP and gaba. Eat really clean and get lots of exercise. I feel you momma. 💔

Answer

Learn meditation techniques so when the negative thoughts come up you can quickly redirect them.  That has helped me so so much because I’m not taking anything to help my anxiety during pregnancy.

Answer

I got on Zoloft. And also changed my prenatal vitamins with extra DHA. I’ll take them post baby too

Answer

Try getting regular exercise, drinking a ton of water and come up with some positive affirmations to repeat and reroute your thoughts towards joy and truth.
