How do i deal with depression at 8 weeks?
I am recovering from severe depression, and now that I'm pregnant, my emotions and stress levels are very high. I'm really worried about the baby and how this stress is affecting it...
Has anyone got any suggestions on how to cope with this?

Hi Frankie, sorry to hear what you're going through, but best advice i can give is to recommend you see your GP. There are certain antidepressants you can take throughout your pregnancy, and it sounds like you need to stay on them, to keep your head above water.
I had a friend who went through something very similar, and those pregnancy hormones can drive you crazy, so best too keep on the meds to help you cope.
And congratulations too honey!
