hi there, i did not get myself clinically diagnosed but i had really bad prenatal anxiety in my first trimester. it is probably partly due to hormones, but also i was very fearful of losing my baby. i cried a lot and was very miserable, and then i will go google stuff which makes things worse and then i will get more emotional and cry again. i only started to feel better after talking to my family and gynae. the first (and often hardest) step is actually to talk to someone about it, and then you can assess if you need more help. AWARE also offers affordable counseling services if you want to give it a try!
