Hi I suffered really bad from panic attacks and severe anxiety for a year before being placed on cipramil 20mgs daily, this helped and while i was on the medication for 2 years i never had a panic attack or suffered from anxiety. I came off the meds in August of this year and fell pregnant a couple of months after. I have been fine up until now. I a getting the old feelings i used to get - feeling a weight on my chest, like i cant get a proper breath, yawning excessively (for some reason this helps me feel i am breathing properly) and i am afraaid this will now escallate and i will be back to square one. I cant take Cipramil whilst pregnant so i feel helpless and scared that i have no were to turn. What can i do to help myself? Is there any meds known to be safe in pregnancy? And also has anyone suffered the same situation? Any comments would be most appreciated. Thanks
