[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is not something you want to hear, but only meds helped me. I tried everything else. It was only after meds that I realized how disordered and uptight my thinking was, how I was constantly clenched and on edge and how wonderful it is for both myself and my child for me NOT to feel that way. I felt sleepy and in a fog for the first 2 weeks, but once that lifted I instantly became a better, more patient, more engaged parent. There are mild side effects but they are worth it and I would tolerate a lot more for the sake of my child.[/quote] I am the poster above and I just wanted to add that if you have questions, ask me anything about the meds. I am happy to answer. What you wrote described me to a T, including the part about resisting medication. I would spend hours researching things to find the "best" option for everything, and so all the unknowns about drugs were frustrating and unnerving. [/quote]
