Pregnancy & Depression (Update)

[CornyKitty]

No idea if your ladies remember me from a few weeks ago but I'm back and need advice

I'm now 39 weeks and I'm due any day now.

I contacted the crisis team and they prescribed DP anti depressants. He was taking them but then at the weekend he Said he wasn't taking them anymore.

But now he is depressed again and won't take them because they take 4-6 weeks to work properly. (He took them for about 2 and a half weeks but if he carried on taking them it would've been 3 weeks this week)

Really don't know what will happen when I give birth. And he told me not to phone the crisis team and they came out to check how he's doing last week.

I haven't seen your previous post but your DP shouldn't just stop taking medication and go cold turkey unless there is a severe reaction to the drug he should have weened of gradually even though he only took it for a short period it would have started to build up in his system and just stopping can make the lows lower. As someone who has suffered with my mental health I would rather take a pill everyday for the rest of my life than ever feel like I did just before I got help to me it's no different than a diabetic taking insulin. Has he said why he stopped taking the medication? Did he disclose this to the crisis team?

When the crisis team came he was still taking them. But on Saturday he said he wasn't going to take them.

They helped him a bit but not fully as they don't fully work until he was taking them for 4-6 weeks. He said he was OK but now he won't take them again.
