So, I have been bleeding on myself since I started my NR which has only been 8 days now. So I have been bleeding on myself for 8 days straight, heavy flow. My periods only last for 4-5 days.
Besides that, I am in a terrible DEPRESSIVE state. It was so bad one day that I called my own mother up and told her please kill me, I feel so worthless.
The first day I used NR, I had to leave my BIOL 101 class because I just started feeling sad, extremely sad and started crying for no apparent reason.
At 4:00 AM I started having these horrible pains in my abdomen and pelvic area which caused me to be on the toilet from 4 in the morning until 5:30-6 oclock. I had the runs and then I didnt and then I did. The SHARP PAINS felt so BAD, I almost threw up. My own son started CRYING because he HEARD ME IN SO MUCH PAIN. While i was on the toilet, I actually thought I was dying and i told myself, "OH GOD, I THINK I AM GOING TO HAVE TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM."
Another problem is that I have this raging hunger now and I have gained a significant amount of weight. JUST IN 8 DAYS. My own father told me today that its amazing how last week I was skinny and now this week everyone can see my stomach hanging over my own pants now. THIS IS NOT A LIE.
I was on the DEPO shot and it made 75% of MY HAIR FELL OUT and I BLEED THE WHOLE 3 MONTHS I was on it. 3 days before I was suppose to get the next shot, I GOT PREGNANT.
I am not trying to go through a replay of the depo shot with this NUVARING at all.
And its funny because since I have read these post, women have talked about no SEX DRIVE.
I use to be a horny little bugger with my boyfriend and since I have inserted this ring, SEX has not even CROSSED my mind AT ALL. I sleep like a log nowadays too. Yesterday, I came home from school and fell asleep on the couch at 12:30 pm only to wake at 6:30 p.m. My son's daycare was calling and calling me b.c the daycare closes at 6:30 p.m.
I am so glad I FOUND THIS SITE, so now I KNOW why I have had such a DEPRESSIVE OUT OF CONTROL 8 DAYS!
Its amazing what women have to go through....

Hello again, just reading the most recent posts on this site about this pill. Clairey I had similar symptoms while on yasmin and I came off it when I couldnt take any more. It was unreal what I went through, I felt completly numb all the time and my realtionship with my boyfriend almost fell apart, thank goodness my doctor made me come off the pill immediately, the depression was getting to bad something I had never experienced before in my life, i really felt like I was losing controll of my life. I am off yasmin 2 weeks this friday and I can tell you things are alot better, the panic attacks and anxiousness have reduced by about 70%, im not constantly feeling sad all the time but I have up and down days. I am starting to feel normal again, while on yasmin it was like I didnt know who I was anymore. From doing some research on the web I wreckon the symptoms will reduce greatly within 3 months I hope, it feels good not to be taking that awfl pill anymore. Stick with it girls it does get much better, get plenty of sleep, look after yourself, keep busy, im taking a B Complex and i read on the web star flower oil helps with hormone balance, I recommend doing research on the web it has loads of info. It does get better (:

I started taking Yasmin 4 months ago. For the first two months, everything was fine. My cramps were very minimal, my skin had improved, and I was happy. In my third month, I started feeling sad/unhappy/emotional randomly. I also started getting horrible migranes during my period. The fourth month was a nightmare. I dont like doing anything I enjoyed in the past. I am lethargic and I think i'm depressed. I've contacted my doctor and would like to switch and be myself again.

I have been on the effexor for about 2 months now. I was really having bad anxiety and constant things on my mind. I was always feeling sad and depressed. I would want to cry for just no reason. I am 27 years old and basically felt this way for about 8-9 years. I knew it was time for a change. I have had no side effects except for vivid dreams. I used to never remember my dreams until now. It seems like they last forever, but they are not bad dreams or anything. I finally feel normal, and I would suggest effexor to anyone. I am nervous about getting off it, due to reading previous side effects from other people, but right now I am happy!!
