Sober

Rachel

Hi all👋 my husband and I have been sober for going on 4 years. Met in rehab, served at the same rehab and got married a year ago. In preparation of pregnancy I weaned myself off all my meds - antidepressants/anti-anxiety, sleep med and ptsd med (helped with severe nightmares/sleepwalking). I have worked through a lot of my hurt (including an abortion at age 22 that led into a lot of my addiction issues)

I feel halfway incapacitated by depression now. I still make it to work but once I’m at home I feel like I can’t move or leave the house. I don’t have the urge to drink or anything and I am incredibly blessed with the new life I have. My husband is amazingly supportive (he cooks a lot).

It scares me because I worry about taking care of a baby etc I’ve handled my depression with meds quite well so this is new territory for me. Thank you for reading.
