Anxiety medication

Does anyone know which medication I can take for anxiety ? I am suffering quite badly and would like to request medication from my gp. However I am breastfeeding so makes it slightly more complicated.

I would appreciate any help thank you Flowers

I suffer with PND & anxiety and I'm breastfeeding.
Sertraline is very safe & has worked for me.

I've done breastfeeding & pregnancy on it

Your Dr is trained to know this, not mumsnet

@kitkatproblems sorry also to hear you are having a tough time. My anxiety is worse when I'm out on my own with DD.
