Worried about moving

[Macchiato]

So I gave myself a move out date and if Im being honest I can move a bit sooner but Im hesitant bc of my mental state.

I have anxiety combined with Ocd that raises and dips...and while Ive been funtioning I feel the anxiety of being alone with an infant would crush my mind.

I want to gwt on anti anxiety meds before I go but im also afraid of the guinea pig stage of trying a cocktail of meds or having worse anxiety than i starter out with or horrid withdrawls and having no one to lean on in the midst of all of that.

How soon will the meds work? Be sure to ask your doctor. Ask for professional advice about the infant. Where are you moving from?

From home. Its time to go. Being used as a financial bank.

Have you tried sitting down with them at home to discuss the issue? Talk to someone about it , give examples if you can but obviously, tell them in a respectful way that you feel changes need to be made.

Can you try and get some good, independent, professional advice first before you move?

I know what anxiety is like. I get that too.

May God bless you and guide you.

@Macchiato
I was in therapy because of my father (over 20 years ago), but he never changed. I feel so much compassion for people in tough situations like yours. One thing about anxiety and depression, is a need for a good supportive friend or counselor. I'll pray and I hope you find some help.

Now I remember. I wish I had a clever solution.

If you know no one you can depend on, that you cannot depend on yourself. Why not depend on God ? Why continue to rely on your strength but not on God’s strength. If you can’t rely on your meds, and why not
rely on God’s healing power.

I think you need to think through and rely on what makes more sense, that is, rely on God.
