I am struggling. I started meds about 2 months ago, but here recently I am feeling overwhelmed and angry again. Have any of you had to up your medication? I think I am at that point. I have to go in to see my doctor in a few weeks so I plan on talking to her about it then. This all sucks. I have the happiest baby ever, but I'm still struggling. Boo! Hope you are all doing well!

Yep juliesmiles, I have had my medication upped. It was no big deal, when I started to feel like I was struggling again, I told my doctor and she told me to take an extra tablet a day (I was only on 50mg at the time) and see how I went. That bumped me to 100mg and when I saw her next I said I was feeling better and she wrote the next prescription at the higher dosage.
I'm doing good! It definitely helps that I've started my own business, I really enjoy what I do so I have a hobby and something for myself. On the downside I've started spending way too much on other hobbies, too..
If you're feeling that way then definately talk to your doctor. My doctor told me that just because you feel like the meds are losing their efficacy does not mean you're getting worse. Over time our body builds up a tolerance to them and so in the course of treatment its very common to need to up the dose before tapering off!
AFM, I feel 1000% better then I did before Christmas. Even though I am exhausted and things with H are strained, I do not have the negative thoughts towards the baby that I did.
