The ads are working, been on them for 7 months, except i recently started therapy and to be honest I feel sooo crap, the depression is coming out again with the therapy, I find it very hard, but I know that it will make me feel better in the long run. In Nov we were going to try to conceive, I am getting old so don;t have time to wait. Should I go ahead and try? I am on citalopram, I know there are some mumsnetters who have had healthy babies on this antidepressant.

Poor you I have been in your position twice and have 2 healthy children from it all. Both times I came off the ads before trying but in the last pregnancy ended up on citalopram with the full consent of my gp by around 20 weeks. It was very hard and emotional but well worth it!
