Yasmin changed my life for ever. I was on it for about 2 years, during which time I went from being a happy, healthy, active person to someone with severe anxiety and depression who was barely recognizable. I would cry myself to sleep, cry and be unable to get up in the morning and lived in a 'fog'. I suffered panic attacks and became completely withdrawn and unable to cope with normal life. I decided to come of the pill after I started to get irregular bleeding. Little did I realize the effect that coming off it would have on my life. I actually felt myself come out of the darkness and like I had come out of a nightmare. After suffering so much for so long, I instantly felt better and now 6 months later, have returned to my normal happy ' pre Yasmin' self. I am so lucky my partner stuck by me and helped me get though something that I now know I bought on myself, all by taking a low does 'safe' pill. Do NOT take this pill.
