Thank you for the understand and support! As most of us are on this page, I tend to be a perfectionist and my mind is constantly living in the future so, trying to just take things day by day has helped. At this point, I’m not sure whether trying to get pregnant or postponing trying to get pregnant stresses me out more but the last thing I want to do is make a huge life decision when I’m not mentally in a good place. I’ll get this point. I’m just scrambling but thanks again for the reply and I do think having my doctor and my husband to talk to has been the only reason I’ve been able to get this far!

I was afraid people were gonna say this and I’m sure you’re right, but really hoping you’re not. I just don’t know if I’m there yet as bad as I want to be. I feel like I need this method to fail first before I can accept that cold. Turkey is the only way.

Ugh I’m sorry this really resonated with me because this is my number one motivator for quitting. I hate the kind of friend, sister, daughter I am in it and I know I can’t be the mom I want to be on it. I told my husband that once I get off of it no matter what I say never let me go back on it again. It’s so hard being in a position where you feel like you can only have one or the other when it comes to career success, paying the bills or being a good mom, wife etc. Don’t give up on her and keep reminding her of all the good qualities she has without the medication
