*anxiety Disorder During Pregnancy*
Posted: 08-07-05 09:43am

:shock: hey guys! I need some advice!
For the past three years I have experienced general anxiety. It feels like my heart is always racing, & my nerves are shot...I was just beginnig college when all of this came about, thus assuming it was subconsciously related. I tried to cope without meds, but soon decided to try something after things got worse. I found zoloft, which worked for me great.
I gradually "weemed" off of it a couple months before I found out I was pregnant (just a coincidence). I am currently five months, & up to this point had no anxiety problems! Very exciting! However....Just this past week I have noticed it overwhelming me once again. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this during pregnancy & what they did. I am worried that my anxiety itself could harm my fetus. I would like more information on zoloft (or of similiar nature) during pregnancy, but however, I more importantly would like any advice or knowledge anyone has on the anxiety alone harming my fetus. Im assuming that when my heart races, it also races that of my baby.... Any help would be greatly appreciated!
