Brand new poster, apologies for diving in with a moan but I am quite terrified that I am relapsing at just over 17 weeks pregnant with my first.
I have a long history of severe, treatment resistant clinical depression with a more recent history of psychosis, and I have been unmedicated since I discovered I was pregnant at the end of January. I was mostly fine until a few weeks ago, when I noticed I was starting to feel low all the time; this soon turned to feeling worse, and recently I feel terrible all the time.
I have had quite a difficult pregnancy physically also, and unfortunately my boyfriend has a tendancy to ignore me in favour of his smart phone. Myriad circumstances combine to make it harder to recover!
I am just terrified if I get worse I will be deemed unfit to look after my baby when it arrives :(
Horribly sad, scared, in pain, and lonely -.any reply.appreciated!
