I am currently 29 weeks pregnant with my second pregnancy (have a nearly 3 yr old son). 3 weeks ago I developed sudden onset of severe anxiety and panic attacks and I can't understand why. It has lingered since and every night at bang on 4am I waken up in a state of panic. I lie there desperately trying to get thyself calm but it continues throughout most of the day. I have a really good support network but I cant seem to shift this. My consultant wants to put me on sertraline 50mg but I really want to avoid it. I've been to one session of reflexology, which helped me for the day but it came back that night again. Has anyone here experienced sudden anxiety out of nowhere and how did you cope? I dread every night now 😫 j just don't understand where this has come from. I can barely even feel excited about baby coming now 😩
