Increased anxiety?

Question

I suffer from anxiety and depression and in the beginning my anxiety was really bad. It leveled out in my second and beginning of my third but now at 33 weeks my anxiety is back and is terrible. I use to dealing with anxiety but this is just so different! Help!

Answer

Yes. Ever since I hit 35 weeks, my anxiety has been increasing everyday. I spoke to a friend who also suffers from anxiety, and she went through the same thing of first trimester really bad, second pretty okay, and third the absolute worst. 
We'll get through it, mama! I know the intrusive thoughts are the absolute worst!

Have you ever heard of Plexus? I use it for my anxiety and it is safe during pregnancy!!

Answer

I had severe anxiety and depression my second trimester. I could never sleep and my mental health was seriously suffering. I felt like i was losing my mind. So my Dr put me on Zoloft and it's been life changing. I'm able to sleep normally and function all day. Although right now I'm kind of going through depression again - I can't even imagine how bad it would be if I wasn't on meds. I don't think I would have even made it this far honestly. It's scary to think about. With you being so close to the end though it's tough. I would recommend therapy. I started seeing a pregnancy centered counselor and it has been so great for stress and talking things out.

Answer

Same here!! I actually asked my Dr today to get back on meds but if you don't want to do that try some essential oils. They have been helping me when I haven't had them.

Answer

I'm the same 
What I do is tend to distract my mind get busy doing something if it hits late at night I go outside get some fresh air put relaxing music tends to work best of luck
