Hi Sky, I have just met you in new members introduction, its good to see you here on the BP Forum.

I understand that you are feeling anxiety and that you are in a situation medication wise because you are still breastfeeding.

You are scared of the repercussions this is having on your relationship with your husband, which is understandable, it can be hard for us to explain what we go through and feel and our insecurities.

Personally, I do not disclose my diagnosis to friends. However, I also know of plenty of BP people who do.

For people who love you, you are not a burden, you think this way, because you are currently struggling and your thought thinking is not quite clear.

You will find ways to manage this and hopefully reduce the symptoms, and you will have your pdoc as back up support to help you. Therapy would be useful too.

Hang in there Sky101!
