I used to deal with a lot of anxiety before but ever since i got pregnant i feel oddly calmer some days. Is this even a thing or just my mind playing tricks? curious if hormones can actually do this.
Honestly for me it was the opposite, my anxiety went up a bit because of hormones and overthinking. But some days I felt calmer too, it varied a lot. Whatever you feel is valid, and talking to someone helped me so much.
I overthink everything so I cant say it reduced mine haha, but I did feel more focused on the baby. Distraction helped. You are not alone if you feel up and down.
It is different for everyone na. If anxiety is bothering you a lot, please mention it to your gynac, they can guide you properly. Mental health in pregnancy matters just as much.
