Yasmin Hello, I am a 24 year old woman who has been taking Yasmin for 2 years. WORST YEARS OF MY LIFE! Everything I've been through with this pill has been horrific. It is so relieving to know that so many of you have felt the exact same symptoms as me. It makes me feel like I'm actually NOT going crazy after all! I have constant feelings of anxiety, dizziness...I actually had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance one time because I was so dizzy I couldn't even walk or get out of my bed. They did all these scans and found nothing, told me it was a bad case of Vertigo. Everyday, I feel dizzy, my stomach problems have been so bad, I've done lots of tests on my stomach for acid reflex, etc only for them to tell me it was stress-induced acid reflex. I've had so many anxiety attacks, detachment from reality, feeling weird being in my own body, detached from myself. Everyday I feel like crying, or I get so mad I feel like throwing something against the wall. And normally I am sooo not like that! This isn't me, I feel like I'm losing my own identity because this isn't myself, its Yasmin controlling my life. I never wanted to take them in the first place, I only started when my gyno diagnosed me with polycystic ovarian syndrome. So after reading all your stories and confirming that this is definitely what's led to my horrible life lately, I've thrown away all of my pills and am stopping them completely. I will visit a homeo doctor and experiment with some natural treatments. THIS PILL IS EVIL! It will ruin your life, stop while you can!!
