Upbeat symptoms and conditions

Okay, I recently made a post on July 26th about how I loved Yasmin and have not had a problem with it. I would now like to revoke that post. Since I wrote that I have been feeling totally crazy! I snap at my 2 year old son, my fiance and my coworkers. That is not me! I do not do things like that. I'm usually a very happy person and very strong emotionally. Lately the most stupid stuff has me crying my eyes out. I seem to pick fights with my fiance, which I don't do. We never fight. And it was only last night that I sat down with him and told him that I feel like I'm going insane. We thought about it and the only thing that has really changed in the past 6 months is the fact that I started taking Yasmin. We discussed it and I have decided to stop taking this BCP for at least a month to see what happens with my mood. I'm hoping it works. If anyone has any suggestions about how to do this smoothly, please let me know. And good luck to you all!

This is an update. I have stopped Lisinopril 4 days ago. By the way I forgot to mention that I did experience hair loss after being on 20 mg since February, Hairloss started end of May, which of course made me anxious to the point I did not want to take a shower anymore or wash my hair!! So this is when I started on Zoloft, which I have taken for the past five years, but only 25 mg every other day. This was keeping my worrying in check and was all I needed. But since February after starting Lisinopril my friend mentioned that I seemed to start worrying about every little thing and she does not even recognize my usual upbeat self. So then when the hair loss started I thought it was all in my head and went to the counselor and upped my Zoloft to 100 mg a day. Then in June my doctor said 10 mg of Lisinopril would be enough and sure enough, my hair loss stopped after about two weeks. I thought it was due to the Zoloft, that I just did not count my hair anymore, but now reading all the side effects I realize that I was not crazy at all! What a relief! So since Monday no more Lisinopril and Zoloft down to 25 mg for the past week. Last night was the first night I only woke up once really short, noticed a rapid heart beat, but only in my heart area, not all over my body, and went back to sleep. I also experienced on Lisinopril those vivid dreams which I woke up from and felt emotianally drained. I do take a Multivitamin, garlic pills and twice a day a table spoon of apple cider vinegar. So far my blood pressure is about 125 over 80 and instead of waking up with a pulse of 95, it went down this morning to about 84. I feel more energetic and in general way more upbeat. I hope I will keep feeling better and I am glad I did research on all those medications. It made me want to come off all meds and try natural approach, diet and more exercise.
I will keep you updated.

i've been on synthroid for 9 years. started at some low dose and gradually went up to112 mg. get extreme itching all day everyday if i don't take allegra for that.not a rash just itching. that doesn't bother me as much as the fatique. every joint in my body aches all the time. sure there are better days but fo rthe most part it's bad. tried physical therapy and chiripratic care but no avail. they ended my sessions. my legs get sooo weak and my feet burn lower back really aches. sometimes muscle cramps. i'm very negative towards my loving family and it hurts me to do so. can't seem to keep upbeat. soo tired all the time.
is it the syntroid? i used to be very energenic and a doer. now i have spurts of activity in the morning , but then i just can't get motivated. help me any suggestions?

I have been on the ring for a little over 2 months. I have had discharge and a nasty yeast infection. I started feeling the start of another one this week and used some Monistat vulvar cream on it before it got worse. I am always a motivated upbeat gal and lately I feel so blah. I feel like I'm losing my mind. I have no motivation to do things that normally make me happy. I feel like I could cry at any time and I can't get myself to go workout. I feel sad and depressed. I haven't even been motivated about Christmas. What's wrong with me? Is it this ring?

I have been taking 100mg of XL for about 6 months, I have been feeling terrible, headaches, jittery, can't sleep, irritable,fatigued all the time. I thought it was neurological, had MRI of brain, spine, etc... I also have ringing in my ears, and don't feel like doing anything. I am usually very social and upbeat, but now just the opposite. I hate this anxious shaky feeling all the time. I am going to stop taking it, skip a dose every other day for a week or two. Does anyone have any advice on how to stop taking wellbutrin?? If so please let me know. I want to get off of it ASAP!!!

I have been taking Wellbutrin generic 75mg for 5 days. Today...WOW!! I feel like I did 10 lines of cocaine. I feel so speedy and upbeat. I don't have any other bad side effects. I notice at night, I feel the need to stretch out my legs because I feel agitated. SO far so good. I think this stuff is a lot better then the SSRI's. I had horrible side effects and suicidal thoughts. My only curiousity is, why would my DR. put me on this if I have anxiety and not depression? Weird. I have an appointment with him today and I think I want to stay on this dose and see how it works for me. I don't want this Dr shrinking my brain. LOL I'm really scared about drinking on this.

I think i feel the same way. I don't think I'm truly depressed, but I seem to find something to cry about at least every other day. I was never like this before. I thought it might just be stress from my job too, but since I've been on the pill, I just don't completely feel like me. I used to be much more upbeat and positive. of course, I'm still not 100% sure this is from Yasmin, I'd be very interested to know if others feel this way. I've been on the pill for about 2.5 months, I stuck with it this long because I thought this feelingwoudl subside, but it wasn't. I'm going to look into other pills....

Well, some good news... I posted below about getting bad gas and being dizzy after only 4 days using Yasmin. But now after 2 weeks those side effects have disapated. I called my gyno and she urged me to stick with it a little while longer and I did. I'm glad I did. The side effects are gone, my mood seems to be upbeat lately, and my skin is getting clearer. Hope it all lasts!
