Thinking of suicide symptoms and conditions

i've been on yaz for almost 6 months now, and i absolutely love it.
i was diagnosed with severe PMDD, and would get horribly depressed to the point of thinking of suicide for a week/week and a half before each period. i had cramps so bad i could hardly move, couldn't sleep, would have no sex drive, and could barely get myself out of bed. then, right after my period was gone, i'd be back to normal again. it took quite awhile for me to realize what was going on after i had seen some commercials for yaz talking about PMDD and how much it can affect your every day life. since taking yaz, i have had NO depression bouts and absolutely no cramps. my sex drive has actually increased, and my skin has cleared up completely.
after reading most of these reviews, i'm thinking that if you do not have a form of PMDD yaz will have the opposite effect on you that it is supposed to have as is the case for some depression medications. they clearly state on the commercials that it is for the use of treating PMDD and moderate acne, and do not encourage you to take yaz if you do not have those current symptoms.
not trying to start anything, just don't want people to have a horrible view on this pill as it has changed my life in so many ways for the better. :)

I started yaz 4 months ago. Everything was going great until this past month. I had no side affects, before this. I actually lost weight on Yaz. But this month, i seriously went out of my mind. I was anxious, depressed, and moody. I was so depressed last week that I was thinking of suicide. I cried myself to sleep every night for no reason.

I was at the end of my rope and then I found this site. Thank god I did. I stopped Yaz in the middle of my pack last wed. My doctor agreed it was the best course and I'm not kidding....less than 48 hours later I felt better. I'm happy....have had no signs of depression and feel so much better.

I also started having really bad stomach issues around the 4th month on this drug. I thought it was a virus. But it lasted almost the entire month. I even took a pregnancy test because I was panicking. Low and behold....48 hours off the drug and my stomach was almost fully back to normal. So, I have to say it HAD to be Yaz. There is no other possible explanation. I'm so frustrated because this is the 4th birth control brand I've tried and I've had horror stories on each one. I just feel like there is nothing out there for me....and that's seriously depressing.

This site helped me so much. Thank you for sharing your stories because I wasn't even thinking it could be the YAZ medication until I came here.
