Bit nervous to write this but I am feeling very depressed in recent weeks. I have a longstanding history of depression and anxiety but over the last few years I have managed this really well with counselling and regular exercise without medication. Since being pregnant I can't exercise and feel a bit overwhelmed.I think it is getting on top of me again. I also have a very profound family history of depression/bi polar (my father committed suicide) and my mother has always been on anti depressants since I was born (also attempted suicide)... I'm actually frightened i'm going to get crippling PND or even worse... psychosis.
If I tell my midwife how I'm feeling...not to mention my horrible family history...what is she going to do?
