Question:

cause if i can't take these certain meds , i can't control the panic!

Answers:
Please don't have another baby, you have not yet found out how or why you get panic attacks now ,and you are already a dysfunctional parent. Give the kid you already have a break and grow up and get help before you ruin someone else's life!

Other Answers:
Please don't

If you suffer from a disorder that you have no control over without medication, perhaps you should question whether or not it is a good idea to have another child. Please understand I'm not trying to criticize, but you should, for the sake of the child, consider how it will affect them, not just during the pregancy, but in the future, when they are growing up. Mental disorders don't just affect you, but everyone around you, and children are much more attuned than we realize.

You need to talk to your psychiatrist about alternative therapies for your panic disorder. You don't want to bring another life into this world if you can't even control your own. Please don't bring another child into this world in vain!

you need to be healthy to raise your curent and potential children. I have heard stories of people with different psych diagnosis going off there meds in a controlled way. Basically they need 24 hrs care of a family member during pregnancy and about 6 months after pregnancy to do it. I am not sure it's the best thing though. Talk to your doctor about it

Sounds like you already have enough to do in a day. Don't have a baby. That is such a mental upheaval anyway, you really don't need anymore drama.

Panic attacks are results of anxiety disorders. There is medication that you can take to treat this without harming your baby, such as talam or arowpax which a brands or the generic citztrolopram. But check with your doctor because you might not even have anything wrong with you.

adopt or get a puppy.

Talk to your Dr, there may be meds you can take for the anxiety that will not harm your baby.
