I'm new to mumsnet. Have a 7 week old and have been diagnosed with pnd and prescribed Sertraline. Anxiety has been horrific and went off the scale when I started taking the Sertraline. Stopped taking the drug but am now trying again, initially taking a third of a tablet a day. (third day on this dose today) Anxiety still bad and can't really be left on my own (feel pathetic and embarassed for this). Struggling to see that I will ever be able to cope with my baby. Have had to give up breastfeeding because of the stress. Been recommended to get cognitive behavioural therapy, but would like a recommendation. Does anyone know of a cbt therapist with experience of pnd in the Hammersmith area of London? Any support appreciated.
