Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
Hey everyone it's me here over thinking again....
So a little over 3 years ago when I was had my daughter I decided to get an IUD placed. About 3 months later I was diagnosed with postpartum depression. Granted I had just lost some one to suicide and was going through issues. I brought up to my doctors could it be my IUD? They all reassured me that is most likely wasn't. I'm starting to think maybe it is. Maybe my hormones are out of balance, maybe I do have an adrenal insufficiency and the two of them together are making it worse. Idk I just wanted to air my thoughts and I'm curious if anyone has any knowledge or experience with the IUD

My best friend ruined my day with her immature, bitchy self. If she doesn't get her way, she has a tizzy fit. I told her weeks ago that I couildn't go to yard sales with her on 9/12 because i have a hair appointment. She wasn't happy. I also told her that I don't have any money to go to yard sales. She tried to talk me into going to more yard sales by saying that if I don't go, there...

The Friday before Labor Day just before we left, the options given to me basically were either quit of be fired, and if I were to stay on I were to be put on an improvement plan, which is pretty much synonymous with getting fired. I was going to do the improvement plan and just ride it out until I found another job due to money and due to the fact that I did not want to quit without another job....
I think having a baby totally messes with your hormones... and then losing a loved one so tragically can throw even the strongest into a tail spin.
I am so sorry about your loss but am happy you have the little one. Hope you begin to feel better soon... keep reaching out.
But yeah, doesn't hurt to ask your doctor about it and see what they say.
Hope you're doing good today!
I have been tested for thyroid my thyroid levels are all good. They are currently in the works of testing me for an adrenal insufficiency aka Addison disease ( I have low sodium and potassium). I guess I am just thinking if that comes back negative that maybe I should really consider getting my IUD removed since my depression and anxiety came pretty much as soon as I got my IUD placed and I have been struggling ever since.
Yes, that sounds like something about the IUD could be causing it... and sure, why not get it removed and after a few months, see how your anxiety and depression are doing. The hormones could be messing with your body. And like you said, with the adrenal issues you're having, maybe best if you could remove other hormones (example - from the IUD) that are being put in your body right now. Kind of reset your body back to how it was, you know?
You can always get it put back in again later. Wouldn't it be great if that's what was causing your anxiety/depression?
I wish you luck! Let us know!!
