This is for other ladies out there who are pregnant or trying.
Your mental illness doesn't take a break or go away during pregnancy. You still treat asthma, diabetes, and other illnesses if you are pregnant. So don't think you have to be unmedicated while pregnant.
I just recently saw a psychiatrist, who is also an obgyn, and she told me this. I was spiraling out of control from almost 2 months of no meds. She has me back on one but it hasn't kicked in yet. But please reach out.
