I was/am taking welabutrin and prozac.

I have battled depression and bad eating disorder.

I just MC'd and I feel so worried it was my fault for taking antidepressant. :cry:

So should I stop them now? I feel so much better on them.
I don't ever want to MC again especially if it is my fault. :nope:

please let me know what you think. :hugs:
 
Please talk to your Dr before stopping a prescription! And I'm so sorry for your loss. :(
 
Sorry to hear about your loss :(
I don't see why your anti D's would have caused it, i take them myself and my doctor has told me that it would be more damaging for me to come off them than to keep taking them once i get pregnant.
Please don't just stop taking them, it's not good for you. Best thing would be to talk to your doctor, maybe if they were a factor in it you could go onto a smaller dose or something.
Hope everything goes well for you x x x
 
So so sorry for your loss, sweetie :hugs:

I can only echo what the others have said - please don't just stop taking any medication, it could end up doing much more harm to you!
(I say that from personal experience)
I'm also taking anti-depressants and although I'm not pregnant yet, my GP is getting me off of them slowly. She has said that she wants to keep me on a low dose of one that she knows is safe and suitable so perhaps this could be an option for you?
