After my 2nd child, I developed OCD revolving around ME developing some awful disease and dying and leaving my children. After my 3rd child, I developed spiritual OCD. That I had blasphemed God and was now separated from him. My 2nd child is 10, and I’m still struggling. Thankfully less so with medication.
Wow this sounds like me after my son was born, but he is four years old now and this still sounds like me. I’m pregnant with my second and I’m terrified for my postpartum period.
@@carlacook8355 yes unfortunately. But he’s almost a year and a half now and I think I have recovered from it more quickly. I took anxiety medication during and after the pregnancy and it seemed to help.
@@thegrumpygecko2390 on no!! Im so sorry its horrible! So with your second baby was it as bad as your first? Mine was horribleee.. severe anxiety with severe ocd with intrusive thoughts and with all that i got derealization so im so scared for a 2nd but i really want one..

I’m dealing with BAD post partum ocd randomly it turned into harm ocd not even just about my baby but random people and myself plz tell me it goes away I know it’s hormonal for sure
OMG like WHY do Talk therapists dont mention that they are not the best to treat OCD.... I remember seeing one for 8 years and kept feeling so so bad

What if the postpartum ocd was missed and the mom is still experiencing these issues 5 years later?
Not a mother but an aunt and I check on my sleeping niece.
Did you get derealization with your postpartum OCD?? Thats what i got 3 years ago when i had my son. You mentioned things didnt feel real
