Hello everyone.. I am so sad..Would you like to know why? I believe it is because the mirena I got put in after my second child. I talked all things over with my doctor and he strongly suggested I go the "Mirena" way. Keep in mind I'm 22years old. Good Health, never had a serious illness or anything out of the ordinary ever happen with my health. Well 2 weeks after mirena was incerted into me I began feeling very tired, lack of motivation, irritable, and the best part of it all is I have extreme anxiety now. I never had ths in my whole life, until Mirena was implanted. So I immediately go to obgyn and ask why??? He said it had absolutely nothing to do with mirena, that mirena has no side effects like that . So he put me on an anti depressant. Well that did not help at all. Let me tell you about panic attacks in case you don't know what they are. They are episodes of extreme panic, dysphoria, nausea, chest pain, muscle stiffness, near fainting, you down right feel like you are going to DIE.... No Joke, There is nothing you can do. But take meds that damn near knock you out. Now, panic attacks will not kill you. They just feel like you are dieing. I going through this for two years now.!!!! From med to med, doc to doc . No Body seems to know why??? So I got the Mirena removed. They magically went away for two months.. I was thanking GOD, it was a miracle..Just two weeks ago I began having them again. So I go back to my doctor. She puts me on busprone and ativan...To stop the attacks. But the meds don't work and she wont listen. Im just so sad because, this has cost me my marriage, My husband left me, we have a two year old beautiful daughter named destiny. She has suffered all this, she doesn't understand why?Why mommy has panic attacks, or why mommy is crying, and having to rush to the doctors or hospitals. I just feel like Mirena has ruined my life. A life I can never get back. To anyone reading this who hasn't gotten the mirena yet....Stop right now and do something else.... My husband and I would still be together if it wasn't for this mirena.Though, I pray it never happens to another soal..It could happen to you too.

Im so sorry. The anti depressents should get you back on track to where you can wean off of them and be ok again. The mirena just got your hormones all wacked out. And believe me the mirena has hurt many marriages. Not all of them end. But it has definately damaged many. My poor husband is counting the days til I get it out so I will be able to have sex again! I feel so sorry for him. What a good man. And I am listless, non sexual and cranky. And this is our first year of marriage. Everything was great til I got the dumb thing put in just a week before we got married. So all this time he thought it was just that I changed because we got married!!! I couldnt understand why I was feeling so different suddenly. Now we know and I am getting it out in 7 days. I CANT WAIT!!!!
Get yourself together. When I had a bout of depression years ago, I took cymbalta for a year and then got off and I was fine. I just needed that boost and to regulate my moods and hormones. You will be ok. Everytyhing will turn out fine. If your marriage fell apart truly because of the Mirena, then when you get yourself back, maybe he will give you another chance.
