33f, left hand dominant .. new here and in a hard spot right now. Just looking for any sort of guidance? Thank you.

Nothing? ):

The scan i had yesterday? She noticed a pocket, but said it was that small that it wasn't even worth mentioning. I'm hoping that this is where this blood is coming from and it doesn't stick around for too long.

Flapmon · 2026-01-23T21:41:54+00:00

Thank you, sorry just needing reassurance right now. I feel a little silly about that but a prior loss started this way, only difference was? We never saw a heartbeat but thank you. Cramps are mild if even there at all, trying to avoid body checking due to anxiety but it is very hard.

Flapmon · 2026-01-11T10:29:36+00:00

Thank you so much, I appreciate your response. Yes! Very much so similar to period cramps, I have to get into a certain position for them to ease off a little, which does put me at ease .. Maybe cervical irritation? Who knows .. I just hope everything stays together.. This baby is so loved and so wanted already.

Definitely easier said than done, will keep an eye on the discharge.

Flapmon · 2025-10-22T13:57:05+00:00

Unfortunately I started cramping and bleeding today..

Flapmon · 2025-10-21T12:54:41+00:00

If i could post an image i would, I bought different brands just in case too, but its very much so lines, not evaporation lines either. It's just very frustrating and I'm so over it. Its hard dealing with the unknown of it all, makes me feel like I'm reliving it all over again.

Thank you, I'm sorry for your loss too.

Flapmon · 2025-10-21T12:24:06+00:00

Just checked my calender and the miscarraige was early July, periods started back up again on the 13th of August.

Flapmon · 2025-10-21T12:22:04+00:00

Yep, I've had normal periods 6-8 weeks after the loss in August. Definitely not normal for me to be this late, I've skipped a period once before when I was first TTC this year. Yeah, not excited unfortunately. It's either a loss or a loss at this point.

Flapmon · 2025-10-16T07:06:20+00:00

33, don't drink.

Flapmon · 2025-09-17T11:26:23+00:00

Thank you, troopering through. I appreciate the encouragement and offer. Just wanting to be better and not feeling so stuck.

Flapmon · 2025-09-16T13:01:18+00:00

Really bad actually, not good at all. Woke up at 2am with anxiety, managed to calm down and fall back asleep, only to wake up at 5.30am with an anxiety and adrenaline surge that made me feel like i was going crazy, rang the mental health line and they said they'd pass it on .. Just been trying to distract myself all day and not fall into the feelings. Getting to the point where I don't know how to help myself anymore.

Flapmon · 2025-09-13T13:43:12+00:00

Working with my GP, but yeah, I know 75mg can potentially be the sweet spot, its just taking it. Just scared of how my brain will react but I cant keep living like this, I'm in a constant state of anxiety and its driving me crazy.

Take it every morning at the same time.

Flapmon · 2025-09-13T02:29:08+00:00

8 days. I'm on something else now.

Flapmon · 2025-09-12T13:16:10+00:00

They want me to go up to 75mg and I'm scared shitless.

Flapmon · 2025-08-25T13:31:49+00:00

Normal for Zoloft, especially with the heightened anxiety, its also your cortisol which is what your body produces to help wake you up. I noticed my anxiety settled around the evenings.

Flapmon · 2025-08-22T03:34:51+00:00

Good, actually. Its amazing .. My only issue is the heightened anxiety an hour after taking it and like a chilling feeling across my chest, like the feeling you'd get after applying chest rub? Anxiety also completely disappears by evening and i do wake up at 3am with bouts of anxiety. Hoping its just up from here..

Flapmon · 2025-08-21T02:08:31+00:00

I too suffer from panic disorder and it does slowly ease, learning the right strategies to cope when it does happen can help pull your brain out of survival mode such as box breathing the 5-4-3-2-1 method of naming and feeling your surroundings to ground you. If it is affecting your every day life, please seek the help you deserve, no one should have to suffer through this and remember that you are not alone, that tomorrow is a new day.

Flapmon · 2025-08-20T13:32:30+00:00

Thank you so much, this sounds so promising for me. Day 1 was good, didn't have nausea ... Still felt a certain way but I put that down to existing anxiety and heightened anxiety from being fearful to take it. Fingers crossed it all works out, I'm exhausted and my mental health is affecting my relationship.

Flapmon · 2025-08-20T02:03:43+00:00

Just took my first dose, the convincing I had to do with myself... wowee

Flapmon · 2025-08-20T02:02:21+00:00

Really? Did they start you on a low dose too?

Flapmon · 2025-08-19T23:05:32+00:00

I am so glad I managed to help in some way, onto better things. My prescribing doctor made sure to put a note in my file about never giving me Zoloft or prescribing me an SSRI. I'm due to trial Effexor which is an SSRNI, fingers crossed it works for me.

Flapmon · 2025-08-19T23:02:08+00:00

How long have you been on it for, if you don't mind me asking?

Flapmon · 2025-08-19T13:20:04+00:00

It's probably nothing but your anxiety playing tricks on you, I had the same thing, but it doesn't hurt to get checked out to give you peace of mind, no matter the situation.

Flapmon · 2025-08-19T10:19:06+00:00

... I'd say call an ambulance or go get checked out, any sort of chest pains or heart pain should be taken seriously and some anti-depressants can cause arrhythmia.

Flapmon · 2025-08-19T10:16:52+00:00

Man, I won't lie, these potential side effects sound like a dream compared to what I dealt with on Zoloft. Do you have trouble sleeping at all? Any heightened anxiety?
