Need some comforting and positive words!

I try to remain positive. And I try everything I can to distract myself from the negative thoughts I have. After I had my daughter (2 yrs ago) I had a bad bout of post partum OCD harmful thoughts. Everyday I felt like I was going to harm her and it terrified me. Well after having a panic attack this last Saturday (4days ago) those intrusive thoughts are coming back. I know I will never act on them but still they terrify me. I love my daughter more than anything. Maybe it's time I start my therapy back up.

Are you on any medication? My sister went through the same thing after having her daughter. She got put on Zoloft and she said it helped her through that time

I tried Zoloft and after a year it made me have suicidal thoughts. When I stopped it, I hated the affects it had. I'm not willing to try others as they scare the hell out of me.
