I'm in the 2ww and having such bad anxiety attacks. Not sure if its the ivf meds or stress but of course the anxiety then makes me stress more and then feel bad that I'm not more relaxed. Im trying to do gentle exercise and keep myself occupied reading and drawing but my body feels like it wants to explode.

hii, it’s so stressful what you’re putting yourself through, honestly it’s a miracle how we make it through this. It will more than likely be the meds making all your feelings heightened which let’s be honest are already pretty heightened lol!
Can you take some time with friends to just talk about anything none ivf related? It will help.
I’m in my 2WW and last week I cried every night when I got home from work and I was anxious and so bloody depressed about pretty much everything, if you google side effects of progesterone it’s anxiety and depression… 🙃 I’m feeling better since Friday but it’s natural to be overwhelmed at this point.
I’m sending you positiveness and hope you get the outcome you wish for 💫 x
Separating myself and my brain from feeling at fault from the side effects is making me feel more relaxed about it already. I just have to journey through this. Wonderful advice thank you 💛💛💛
Thank you so much! It really is helping me blaming it on the meds rather than feeling like its all me. Revelation! Friends and other focusses are so very welcome thats great advice. So sorry you're having a rough time of it and do hope you're getting support and not having to work too hard? Sending all the happy baby dust magic your way xx
