Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Many people do not "confess"
because of the fear that others opinions will be influenced by their
misunderstandings of certain conditions. I think that you are pretty safe
here. I have found that one way to gain information about any condition is to
talk to someone who has a loved one with it (or has it themselves). I have
contact with many moms who ask about taking various drugs while nursing,
including the SSRI's. These women are highly productive citizens & are
functioning well, in part, because they are able to control their symptoms
with medications. Continue being happy & healthy and enjoying your baby. Your
baby will be happy & healthy too.
