Hello,
I suffer from anxiety dissorder and depression, i've chosen to live without any medication since my daughter was born 2,5 years ago. I have tried natural remedies but nothing has really worked. I breastfeed my daughter and it is something really important for us.
I have been seeing a psychiatrist, she suggests that i take Sipralexa (Escitalopram) whenever i feel ready, but she is against combining breastfeeding and antidepressants, she says that it is not proven that the moleculles affect the toddler but it's not well proven that they don't.
She is affraid that if something happened to my daughter later (mentally), i would maybe feel that it was my fault for taking the medication and breastfeeding her. That's exactly why i haven't tried any medication until now.
I'm tired of living like this, being a monster sometimes, to myself mostly, and not being able to stop it.
I have to say that i try and protect my daughter from seeing that something is wrong.
I need your opinion on this, please.
