I woke up in shock from the pain , day 3 I had a major anxiety attack I was coping well until day 10 I have had very intense post of blues except it is 100 times worse than baby blues . For the last 3 days I have had overwhelming anxiety all day long , from the minute I open my eyes until I fall asleep . I am exhausted it has been a whole 8 days of anxiety . I am afraid and want to know why this is happening .
