Anyone experiencing bad anxiety almost 4 months pp? I’m still getting panic attacks and it’s mostly on a night and a sense of dread during the day it’s absolutely awful!

Sorry to hear this, I’m in the same boat, anxiety is a huge part of pnd so I’d have a chat to your GP to get you feeling more like yourself soon x

Yes I’ve been there, and it’s such a heavy, isolating feeling. Around 3–4 months postpartum was actually the hardest for me too, especially the nighttime panic and that unshakable daytime dread you mentioned.

What shocked me most was how normal it turned out to be but no one really prepares you for this part. I tried a few things that slowly started to bring me back to myself, and now I handle those waves completely differently.
