i am 41 years old i am planing to get pregnant cuz my huuby has no kids but i am taking lexapro 15 mg a day and my doc told he would prefer for me to stopped but it tried that before and i couldnt i got worse than before so now i am scared to get pregnant cuz i dont want to have abnormal child i will feel guilty for the rest of my life anyone took med while they were pregnant and how was the result please any info it will help

My advice is to stay present and the scenario in the future that your conscious mind has invented you have bought into it as real. It is a delusion. Think of an elephant and it will be as real. You need to be in the moment of now. All you can do with anything is be here now. This is the only place you can do something about your life.
You will never conquer a delusion in the future even a horrific. Why didn't your brain make a delusion that was positive and everyone was healthy. Should of been a 50 50 chance.
First thing im going to say is i am not a doctor. But i am in the medical field and also had a doctor tell me to stop taking my anxiety med during my pregnancy. For me it was not possible so i resumed the medicine but at a slightly lower dose and none of my babies had any effects from the medicine. My mother who was 42 when she had her last child was also on Paxil and had no problems. But again there really is no guarantee.
