I had the same experience with Loestrin. For the last year, I felt like I was on the verge of having a nervous breakdown. I couldn't stand anyone or barely handle day to day issues. I felt like a totally different person. My husband and kids suffered greatly from this experience. I did decide to stop taking Loestrin and I feel like a completely different person....I feel myself. No more mood swings and depression. My husband and kids are glad to have "me" back. I wish I would have stopped this medication a long time ago.
