Hi All! I am very excited that I came across this site because if I wouldn't have, I think I would have driven myself crazy. I was on Yasmin for about 8 months before I started feeling VERY anxious, suffering from panic attacks, always crying, very low sex drive, palpitations. I couldn't even go to the grocery store without having a panic attack. I went to see my doctor and he put me on anxiety medication (which is a concern for me because I do not want to be addicted to Xanax). I have now been off Yasmin for close to 3 months. I do feel somewhat better, but I have noticed that when I am close to getting my period and on it, my anxiety level increases. ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY! Does anyone know how long it takes for this awful medication to leave your system? I want to feel normal. If anyone has any idea…PLEASE HELP!!!!
