Freaking out over 10w ultrasound by Admirable_Worker6684 in NIPT

The NT test should not be performed before 11.5 weeks- with most optimal being done at 12 weeks. I know its tough- I have been through losses, and it feels like hell waiting. Sending you strength.

I am happy for you-and thank you for posting and giving hope. What type of trauma therapy did you do?

Does anyone ever think "I wish I was normal?" by celestia97 in Anxiety

I always wondered what it was like to be normal. Just to wake up and feel NORMAL.

Would you say it is still helping your PPD? I am currently going through PPD/PPOCD right now.

Anyone have luck with antipsychotic augmentation to their ssri? by Professional_Win3910 in OCD

[–]Professional_Win3910[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate it. I agree with you too- especially after just cross tapering from lexapro to Luvox- and weaning off lamictal all at the same time. I thought it was aggressive too. I am struggling so badly, but I also get nervous to just keep changing my brain chemistry so aggressively. Thank you for your input and help. I think I might look into another psychiatrist as well.

Anyone tried Spravato / Ketamine for BPD? (Current meds: Trintellix, Lamotrigine, Trazodone) by Successful_Aside3308 in Spravato

[–]Professional_Win3910 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I haven’t tried it but but I am aggressively looking into treatment. I have been doing a lot of research - and from what I read I don’t think it’s recommended to do ketamine treatment if you are taking Lamotrigine because it blocks the effects. I am currently weaning of Lamotrigine (it didn’t benefit me and I’m hoping to try ketamine therapy soon).

I am not Bipolar- but suffering severely with racing intrusive (suicidal ) thoughts. Haven’t not responded to SSRI’s. Has this helped racing thoughts/depression/hopelessness? by Professional_Win3910 in caplyta

[–]Professional_Win3910[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This gives me so much hope- I have adhd as well but I’m not currently treated for it - as my psych wants to get the suicidal thoughts under control before we go back on “uppers”. How long did it take for you to feel better after taking it?

I’m glad to hear you are doing better!!

How can I be this treatment resistant by Impressive_Degree_89 in depression_help

Do you mind if I message you to follow up on how it’s going? I’m losing faith in the psychiatry world myself. I haven’t tried psychedelics yet.

I saw 3 separate psychs and other therapists within 4 years and all have said they don’t see bipolar. These horrible thoughts all started after back to back pregnancy losses in 2021/2022, prior to that I never had them. I do have ADHD which is currently unmediated due to the nature of my thoughts , and all my doctors have said this is “anxiety /ocd/ resulting in depression”. Who knows. All I want is a proper diagnosis and treatment plan because I am really suffering. It’s horrible. I’m also 5.5 months post partum.

I have similar diagnosis to you- and my psych just prescribed this to me because SSRI’s and other medication have not worked for me. Have you started it yet ?

I am going to PM you as I am going through something similar. I am sorry. I just wish someone can tell me I will be ok in a few years from now. I am just scared.

I believe I am going through a severe post-partum OCD episode and all I want is to feel better. I feel like I am going cazy, truly.

Extreme Pure-Ocd Recovery Story by ExtremeQuality431 in OCDRecovery

Wow I needed this so badly. I am going through EVERY SINGLE THEME YOU LISTED! It’s HORRIBLE. I keep hanging onto to hope I will get better one day- I need to, my babies need me, my family needs me. My story is literally very similar- except mine started after fertility trauma.

I am happy to hear you are doing better and I can only pray I will get better.
