Jeez oh Pete!!! I can't believe it took me so long to figure this out! I've been depressed since Summer. I started the new NuvaRing last Summer. This month I've been crying uncontrollably, severely depressed, and feeling lonely and hopeless. A light went off today when I decided to research side effects of the NuvaRing. I KNOW this is the cause of my depression. I am usually happy and content. Right now, I feel like I am "losing it" and out of control. I took the ring out 2 days ago for my normal period. I will not be putting a new one back in. After this revelation, I already feel better. Today I have not cried, the first time in several days. I had good results with the original NuvaRing (once a week) which I was on for a year or so. But this new once a month ring is the pits.
