bipolar klonopin
Question for mothers with bipolar depression, anxiety disorder or nething more like that ..?
I am 28w1d pregnant with our first. I have a long history of bipolar disorder and had to change medications during pregnancy. However, its important for me to retrace my other medications after birth our baby. I'll be on Depakote and Klonopin. I have very bad episodes of anger and I feel like I will not try to feed and then have a bad manic episode and participation the baby. My gynecologist is pushing me to breastfeed, but I feel like its more important to me to be in my medications that work me b / c it will benefit the baby if its mother is healthy. You can not breastfeed Klonopin. So I do not know what to do. Every doctor seems to say the same thing. Ask the doctor to other and I'm not getting very far with this! So I would like some input from other moms, if you do not mind! I feel like I would be a better mother to make sure I'm healthy and balanced and go on breastfeeding. What do you think, ladies???
I suffer from very bad anxiety. I decided to take me out of my medication during pregnancy. I'm trying the same thing as you. Have not made a decision at 100% yet, but I think I might go with the formula so you can return to my medication after the baby is born. I'd rather have my baby with formula, then be with her and have a major panic attack. That said – I think it is a decision to do based on your personal criteria. After all, is his body, and feeling normal and healthy is important. HUN Good luck, xx.
Bipolar w/ Panic Disorder working with new clinic
i watched your video and it sounds like what my man is going though. he is affraid to go to any doctor because for whta they prescribe him. he agreed to try again but is worry how it will make him feel. he is in county(26th& cali) at the moment but will be out shortly.
his old dr. wanted to try klonopin but that was after he already had so many other meds. that made not want to try it. i will show him our video and hopefully it will make him see there is an answer out there but it takes time. if u r willing to talk to him i think i could arrange it, if it be by our lawyer or otherise. any help would be useful! thank you for your time and best wishes!
