Anxiety and progesterone

I have anxiety at baseline but it seems so much worse on progesterone. Stuff I can normally shut down in my head and stop thinking about are now just constant loops nothing works to stop. I noticed in my first iui cycle I was very anxious during the TWW and attributed it to that. This time Ive now realized that once I started progesterone I’m stuck in anxiety loops I can normally push aside. Does this happen to anyone else? Any advice? I’ve debated meds for anxiety many times, and I know there are pregnancy safe options I’m just also anxious to be on anything. I see a therapist but haven’t been going as frequently because it’s expensive.

IUI #2 5/8

Looking for IUI twins!

Hoping for a successful cycle. Two follicles 22mm and 16mm. Triggered 7am 5/7. IUI 5/8 at 840am. Sperm count was a shocking 36 million. Today is also the 13th anniversary of my dad passing. I am choosing to believe something good needs to happen on this day and if he’s out there he is doing what he can to support me.

Sending baby dust to everyone 🖤
