I have never taken anti-depressants or tranquillisers, except natural herbal ones. even when I had PND and wanted to kill myself and my DC, planned it in detail, I didn't go to the GP as I was bfeeding and didnt want to take anything.
This afternoon after a horrible 2 days with the DC I made the decision to make an appointment with my GP and ask for help.
I am becoming violent and vicious towards the DC and if I don't find a way to stop now I don't know what will happen.
I just want to be at peace. Just want to be able to be the good mum I know I am underneath the rage and ceaseless irritation I feel.
I don't want to take something that will turn me into a zombie or an addict, I'm very afraid of becoming dependant, I'm a very independant person who, outwardly at least, seems to cope, maybe that's why.
Can you please advise me on which are the commonest tranquillisers or anti-depressants and how they work/ the effect they have.
I want something that will allow me to function normally but will take the edge off, make me calm and relaxed instead of a monster at boiling point, all day every day.
Thankyou.
