Medication helped 2/2 in this house. The therapy just didnt work until the medication brought the anxiety down enough first.

Not wanting to medicate. Am breastfeeding. Don't want to mask the issue or rely on medication. I want to actually change my mindset and the way my mind works to overcome this

Have you spoken to a professional about what anxiety does to your body physiologically and what medication does and why its helpful? Because what you said doesnt make sense.

If it's severe you may need to look into it. You need to look after yourself first to be able to care for your family. Severe anxiety is a medical condition which needs to be treated as it is.

I was pregnant when i was having rolling panic attacks from an anxiety disorder so i too couldn't take meds. I saw a wonderful psych who put me under hypnosis followed up with a week stay in hospital. The hypno session was an almost instant recovery. I highly recommend it. It can't hurt to try.
