Anti Depressants and Conceiving Journey. [on]

Discussion

I have been given anti depressants for my depression to begin with and I’m also planning to begin my family planning journey. My family doctor gave me 2 weeks time to think. He said it is absorbed by the placenta and it has no effect on the foetus if conceived.

I said no but I still have 2 weeks time to think he said it’s important to get treated for depression and I suggested to stop if I’m pregnant which he said will have bad repercussions

I’m planning to say NO

I know it’s a personal decision but I highly value any advice I get from this group as this sisterhood is a blessing in disguise. I’m scared to birth a child which is affected because of my matters. God forbid. I’m scared.
