hi guys! about four months ago my doctor switched me from ortho tri cyclen lo(which I had been on for two years) to yasmin. It was the worst experience I have ever had in my entire life. About a week into the medicine I started getting horrible headaches, terrible anxiety and suicidal thoughts. I was sooo scared from this medicine that I stopped taking it thinking that everything was going to get better! Well wasnt I wrong. I developed OCD really bad to a point where I would sit and worry that I would hurt someone I loved or that I would hurt myself. and I had disturbing thoughts in my head that made my anxiety worse. I have been off the medicine for like 4 months and I am now taking 50 mgs of zoloft for my OCD, anxiety, and depression. I am unsure that it is working yet it's only been two weeks! I hope and pray eveyday that I finally start feeling myself! It's been horrible! Has anyone had this experience from this medicine? and if so do you think that I should get a hormone test, because I am almost convinced from reading other posts that my hormones are wacky! Well thanks for reading! and I hope everyone feels better! :)

I took one ultracet 5 hours ago for sciatica; I am now experiencing a severe headache along with disturbing thoughts when I lay down and close my eyes.

Ughh where do i begin?? First off i'm so glad I found this site because now I know the reason I've been such a wreck is because of this pill. I've been on Yasmin for about 6 months now and my whole life has pretty much been fallen apart! i have unbearable migraines (which i have never had before), acne (which i have never had before), panic attacks that have been so severe they have woken me up from a dead sleep, insane mood swings that have made me question my sanity.. the list goes on and on! its so scary to have really depressing, disturbing thoughts and not even be able to grasp why your feeling this way. Last year was my senior year and towards the end of it I just started pushing all of my friends away, not caring about my grades, and even cheated on my boyfriend of 3 years. A few weeks ago I started college at my dream school and couldn't be any more miserable. Thank god I figured out its the Yasmin thats making me feel this way before its done anymore damage to my life. I am calling my gyno first thing tomorrow and getting off this pill!
