Struggling with Mental Illness During Pregnancy and Work

Is anyone else mentally ill, pregnant, working full time, and off most their meds? Because this has not been fun...

Thank you ❤️ I'm on abilify and zoloft, but it is so rough because I stay irritable and depressed. Self care is beyond hard in this state of mind too, but at least I try and shower every so often. I'm currently almost 24 weeks along and it has been so hard with the thoughts of unaliving myself...

No but my best friend was a few months ago. I can't speak for your position, but as a loved one, it hurts to see someone you love going through it. Especially off meds, that sucks!! Make sure you have a strong support system. Try to get back on meds but tbh I don't know your situation so that may not be a choice for you. Self care. Lots and lots of self care. Active self care too not just sitting and watching TV. Keep in contact with loved ones. And share the signs that indicate you're getting overwhelmed with your loved ones so they know how and when to help you !
