Body image issues symptoms and conditions

You know when you have an "a-ha" moment? well I appear to have had one tonight not quite sure why. Had a mirena put in April 2008 due to very heavy periods (changing super plus tampons every 40 minutes for 3 days straight) told that Mirena would be the solution for me. well it did help with the bleeding but have just realized in going through these postings that my increased feelings of depression (have been on Wellbutrin for the last 12 months) feeling like I am sliding into a deep hole, increased weight that despite running aprox 8 hours a week I can not lose a pound, constantly feeling bloated a 300% increase in my migraines leading to a need for prescription migraine meds, and a constant uncomfortable feeling in my perineal area - all seemed to come together to point to one thing tonight. Mirena. I am calling my OB to make an appointment for removal asap. I will take the bleeding over the migraines, depression, weight gain, body image issues, downward spiral any day. Thank you to each and everyone of you for taking the time to contribute to this site. While I recognize that this has been very positive for many individuals, clearly it is not for everyone and that would include me. Wishing all of you that have had a negative experience full return to "normal" and better physical and mental health.

I have been on Lamictal for about 3 and a half yrs now for Bipolar 1. Overall, I have had a really great experience with the drug. I started with 100mg and then went to 200mg after a year and a half. Now I take 225mg as of a month ago. For about a year and a half I had the acne on my chin and then it went away suddenly (thought it was cutting out dairy from my diet though). I have been extremely fatigued for awhile now. 7hrs of sleep is not good enough for me so I end up taking long naps when I have the opportunity each day- I always want to sleep. I feel stupid and lack focus and motivation. I use to be a social butterfly and now I feel so exhausted when entertaining. I am a personal trainer and am in the business of making others feel better, but I seem to be feeling worse. I have experienced weight gain as well and that is hard for me since I use to be bulimic and have always had poor body image issues. I was on the NuvaRing for 5 months and it made me sooooo depressed so I finally got off that and feel better- don't mix those 2 drugs.
I am going to ask my doctor to take me off of it this week because I am ready to trust God with my mental health. I have a great support system to help me through the tough times and if I want to get pregnant, I have to go off it anyway.
