hi brittkat, glad my experiences with yasmin have been able to help you,i was also told that i was suffering from anxiety/panic disorder by my doctor,he prescribed me diazepam,i took them for a while and they made me sooo much worse. then he tried to put me on anti-depressants which i refused.i was sure all along that i did not have an anxiety disorder as i have always managed to cope with life quite well up until 6 months after taking yasmin.i took it for 1.5 years,the first 6 months were fine but the year after that was pure hell,i didn't want to live any more i felt that bad and anxious and depressed,i was scared all the time and had the most terrifying thoughts not to mention constant panic attacks. now i am off yasmin my life is pretty much back to normal except for the memories of my year of pure hell. i lost all faith in my doctor as he never listened when i suggested yasmin could be the problem. i now have a female doctor who is much more sympathetic. i live in the uk so have no experience with gynacologists as seems to be who would deal with these problems in the US but judging by some of the posts they are just as bad a GP's. hang in there brittkat,it will get better! my thoughts are with you!
