Any moms with OCD? Particularly moms who already had OCD prior to pregnancy/birth. I’ve had OCD since I was a child and I had it somewhat under control before becoming a mom (about 6 months ago). I’m finding myself triggered a lot more now. I don’t necessarily do physical compulsions like I used to but I worry and google a lot. So any moms with OCD- what have you done that has helped? Are there any support groups? Did you get medicated? I’m still breastfeeding so I’m scared to start medication while still breastfeeding but I may just stop breastfeeding in order to get medicated.

I have some cash sitting in my checking that I know I should do something with. I already have an ample emergency fund in a HYSA. My 401k is where it needs to be. I may use this excess cash for a house down payment eventually but no set time frame for that. Should I just put it into mutual funds? Any specific recommendations? I’m pretty clueless with stocks.
