So I've always suffered from anxiety which has got worse from I had my lg waited until she was 14 months before I would see a doctor because I kept thinking because I was only 19 at the time they would think I was an unfit mother and take her away from me. Then I found out I was pregnant again and it got worse and I stopped taking all medication. I was scared it would harm the baby and just refused it (don't like taking tablets at the best of times) I was constantly thinking how I could cope with another baby. Then when I was at my 10 week scan I found out my baby had sadly disappeared. My anxiety is worse than ever and it feels like my depression is creeping up again and I haven't had it since I was 15. Think it could be just grief to be fair. But anyways sorry for this long story. Just looking for some advice on to cope with all this! Dont feel like I can go to my doctors and counselling doesn't work for me I just lie. I just want it all to atleast settle down. Thanks for reading x

Hello. I suffer from anxiety. I have also had a MC. It manifests itself in different ways for different people. I get really anxious driving; but I still do it; and when I get home I feel great about having done it. I find for me; that doing things outside of my normal routine really helps me relax and not feel so anxious

I'm actually gonna try that started driving lessons then stopped because of the mc. Might start it again and see if it helps been to scared incase I crash. Should have done my test months ago but I'm far to panicky even my instructor who's been amazing about it doesn't want to put me through the stress yet. But I'll try and do it and see if it makes me feel better thanks xx
