Depression and anxiety

Hey, cps are involved in my current situation due to a domestic with my ex partner. My doctors prescribed me some antidepressants and they aren’t helping whatsoever, they’re making me feel 10 x worse. I’m just wondering if I asked my doctor if he could prescribe me with something different or a higher dosage, would the social see it as I’m unfit to look after my kids? I love them with all my heart and the last thing I’d want is for my babies to be taken from me.

Hi,
What tablets are you on and how long have you been taking them for?
I don’t know much about it but i am taking sertraline for post natal anxiety and they make you feel worse before you fee better. I really had to grit my teeth and push through it for the first 10 days before i started seeing a difference.

You need to give the meds at least 6 weeks.
