I'm sitting here praying daily that it's the darn Yasmin causing me my grief (putting it mildly). I was on it for almost 2 years. In that time I went through a divorce and then some time later, a nasty long term relationship. I went on and off antidepressants and nothing seemed to help. My side effects? Which ones DIDN'T I have? Depression, severe anxiety, incredible mood swings, break-outs, IBS, headaches... But the only thing that really caused any problems for me was the anxiety and depression. No matter what I did, who I was with, my life (on the insde) was a living hell. I worried about EVERYTHING. My heart races constantly. I shake and tremble with fear when I really hit my low points. I was beginning to think that I was really going crazy. Then it dawned on me (one day recently) that a girlfriend mentioned she couldn't take Yasmin cuz it "made her crazy" and I thought, "Could it be that this pill has been making me feel this way for the past couple years?" sure did. Why do I know this? Cuz there was a period of time when I went off it for 2 months and I felt better than I had felt in years. I was happy. Nothing bothered me. I could concentrate. I had energy and motivation. I wanted to exercise. I was simply my good ol' self! But, then I got into a new relationship and thought I better go back on the pill. Well, we've been together for a month now. I've been on the pill for a little over a month and guess what? In my mind, my life is back to being a living hell. And it just didn't make sense cuz everything was going so wonderfully with me and my new beaux. I lay awake one night, ALL night long while I was with him, just feeling so ANGRY at everything and anything.. and at him. So, has my thoughts wondered, they wondered onto the possibility that my pill was making me feel this way AGAIN. So, the next morning, I woke up and immediately got online and typed in "Yasmin side effects" and this is the first site that pops up. THANK GOD!! I am NOT CRAZY!! Now, I've been off the terrible pill for a week now. I am still suffering from most of the side effects but I am trying everything and anything to get through these next couple of weeks before I do something stupid and ruin this wonderful relationship I am in. I want to be my ol' self again so I can ENJOY my new beaux... cuz he really is good to me! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you ladies that are experiencing these same "wonderful" side effects of Yasmin. No one, not even your worst enemy, deserves to feel this way! Best of luck!
