Started taking Yasmin 6 weeks ago and have felt really flat and anxious and even had a panic attack yesterday. I have felt really bloated and uncomfortable and haven't wanted my husband near me. I have been on anti-depressants for Post natal depression for 6 mths and had the symptoms under control before taking this pill. I was really unsure whether Yasmin was causing these symptoms until I found this forum and read the experiences of other women. Saw my GP today and he recommended I stop taking it immeadiately, as it can cause depressive symptoms in some people.
This forum is a real help as it is nice to know that I am not alone in suffering side effects from Yasmin, and without it I may have continued taking the pill for several months in the hope things would improve.
