OK..... looks like this site deleted my links on my previous post on where you can go to view the video on IUD self removal. Actually, you really don't need to watch it... it's so easy. If you can feel your strings, grip them tightly and firmly with your fingers, and just pull gently for a few seconds. I didn't feel any pain at all, just slight pressure. Mine came out in about 10 seconds. It's been 24 hours since I've removed mine. I cannot tell you how much better I feel. Normally, every morning when I first wake up I start feeling really irritable, I start bawling in the shower and can't stop... I even run late to work because I can't stop crying long enough to put my makeup on. Throughout the day my moods will fluctuate depending on what's going on and how other people around me influence them. Today has been totally different. This was the first morning in months where I woke up and showered without crying. I feel like I've been "cleansed," I don't feel my blood pressure boiling over from the slightest family disturbance... in fact my kids were screaming and chasing each other this morning and this was the first time I didn't jump up and scream at them and send them off to their rooms for an hour! I'm going to call my GP tomorrow and see what he says about coming off of my antidepressant, because I clearly don't need it now that the cause of my depression is gone. Good luck to everyone out there.... maybe we can all get together and turn this bad into good and file a class action suit against this company. I'm really scared about what it could do to some of these women who have depression before they even get this product.... this is a pretty serious situation here.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been putting off making an appt. w/ my dr. to get this darn thing taken out. It took about 10 seconds to get it out-no pain-totally awesome. Plus, no $30 co-pay-yippee! I was waiting until exactly 3 months, which would have been next week, to see if the depression went away, but forget it-the Mirena is totally not worth it. As opposed to everyone else, the only good thing about it was that it did actually clear up my life-long acne. Oh well, better acne than constantly being on the verge of tearing up and ridiculous poochy stomach. I never would have thought I'd think anything could be worse than crummy skin and heavy periods, but I was so wrong. Thanks again for the fantastic tip!
