Birth Control
"The only good thing that came from being on this pill was that it prevented pregnancy. Unfortunately the side effects forced me off it. In the beginning there was cystic acne (face, chest,back), mild weight gain/bloating and mild mood swings. I gave it some time, my body just needed to adjust. After four months the acne cleared up but the mood swings worsened and depression kicked in. It only got worse from there. Just before stopping this pill at nine months I felt like a completely different person- crying over every little thing, everything irritated me, little sex drive, constantly depressed. These side effects were having a huge negative impact on my life, totally not worth it to me."
