Trainwreck symptoms and conditions

I HATE RISPERDAL!!!! I have only been on it 3 weeks, my moodiness is horrible (my poor kids!) I feel hopeless and empty. I have bipolar2 and it has definitely made me worse and more depressed. I eat like a cow... 2 huge bags of mini snickers AND a bag of Milky Ways, big bags, Halloween candy on sale the next... ugh. I feel like my depression and crabbiness and hopelessness is off the charts, broke up with fiance and don't give a crap, i hate life and nothing matters. I NEVER got headaches until now and I am always exhausted, I go to bed hours earlier than usual and can barely wake up, then i wake up and cry. I constantly feel like i've done something bad and feel guilty for no reason I have only been on a .5 mg dose for 3 weeks and I took myself off. They made me an emergency doc appt and its gov mental health so i'm lucky to get a call back even if i'm a trainwreck from bp only they say go to the mental hospital... I HATE this drug...

So glad to read this here. I have wondered the past year what is up with my face?!!! I have had problem skin in the past and been able to get rid of acne and worked so hard to have nice complexion after acne issues. Then I started to get huge breakouts, giant cysts all on my chin and lower part of my face...and they hurt and they won't go away and have scarring and always 2 or more huge cysts happening, get rid of one finally and another pops up or pops up AGAIN in same place! And I too have felt depression and fatigue, so unlike me. I have always taken various nutritional supplements and I eat healthy, and this is just not me. I wondered if it was the femcon.Only thing I have changed in past year as I have scrutinized every aspect of my life wondering what the heck is going on! I'm done with it.My face is a trainwreck.No more femcon for me.

... I just want to say that I did not have a bad experience with Yasmin or Yaz (I had been on both). I took Yasmin for about 3 years and Yaz for about 2 years. The only thing that has been rough is actually stopping it... the first month Yasmin-free, nothing much changed, aside from some weight gain (only about 2-3 lbs or so), but my period was still pretty much the same... HOWEVER, month two... what a train wreck! Spotted for 4 days, thought I was pregnant, but oh, no... my period arrived with a vengeance four days late, and it totally brought me back to those high-school days when it was so heavy, I was self-conscious of leaking! I have also gained another couple of lbs, which I can only attribute to stopping the pill because I have become very active since the beginning of the summer, and have been cutting down on food portions. So, we;ll see what happens... but if anyone else has experienced weight-gain after coming off of the pill, I'd love to know.

Otherwise, no issues! Yasmin seemed to work well for me.
