Hi Eme,
I haven't noticed your name here before, so welcome to Beyond Blue. I see you have had a few posts already, so well done.
Have you been to see a Dr to discuss how you are feeling? Have you had your blood pressure checked?
I'm certainly no medical person, but I would be suggesting you get your general health checked out. Your body goes through so many changes when you are pregnant.
You mentioned there is a long story relating I'm presuming to your pregnancy and your baby. Has your anxiety started during this time?
On the internet there are so many ideas and strategies for combating anxiety, you could look up a few ideas and see if any suit you.
Would it help if you were to write down all your anxious thoughts a couple of hours before you went to bed? It may be a little difficult with a new born baby, but can you find some way to relax and unwind before you go to bed?
There are so many stories written here under Anxiety, if you have the time you may find some ideas for dealing with how you are feeling.
Have you tried using the Beyond Blue phone help line. They will be able to advise you and may be able to put you in touch with other groups that can help you.
If you need to share your story, here is a good place to do it anonymously, where you will feel safe, supported and respected.
Hope this has been of some help.
Cheers for now from Mrs. Dools
