[quote=Anonymous]I was first diagnosed with anxiety at 14. I'm 29 now. Throughout all these years, I only had two brief periods where I took anything for it. Since I had my first child, it has been far worse. Now I'm pregnant with #2 (still breastfeeding #1) and it seems to get worse every day. I feel like I am on the verge of a panic attack almost 24/7 and have several full blown panic attacks most days. Generally, I am very natural minded and really don't want to take anything, but I just can't handle this by myself anymore. I have tried exercise, yoga, meditation, all the self care I can think of. I would rather see a counselor but haven't had much luck finding one in my area that takes my insurance and has openings soon, [i]not[/i] several months down the line. I just can't do this anymore! As much as I don't want to take anything, I feel like this is my only option left.

What has actually worked for you? What has your experience been?

I see my midwife next Monday. Do I ask her about this, or do I see my PCP?

Thank you so much for any help.[/quote]
