Yasmin and upbeat

Okay, I recently made a post on July 26th about how I loved Yasmin and have not had a problem with it. I would now like to revoke that post. Since I wrote that I have been feeling totally crazy! I snap at my 2 year old son, my fiance and my coworkers. That is not me! I do not do things like that. I'm usually a very happy person and very strong emotionally. Lately the most stupid stuff has me crying my eyes out. I seem to pick fights with my fiance, which I don't do. We never fight. And it was only last night that I sat down with him and told him that I feel like I'm going insane. We thought about it and the only thing that has really changed in the past 6 months is the fact that I started taking Yasmin. We discussed it and I have decided to stop taking this BCP for at least a month to see what happens with my mood. I'm hoping it works. If anyone has any suggestions about how to do this smoothly, please let me know. And good luck to you all!

I think i feel the same way. I don't think I'm truly depressed, but I seem to find something to cry about at least every other day. I was never like this before. I thought it might just be stress from my job too, but since I've been on the pill, I just don't completely feel like me. I used to be much more upbeat and positive. of course, I'm still not 100% sure this is from Yasmin, I'd be very interested to know if others feel this way. I've been on the pill for about 2.5 months, I stuck with it this long because I thought this feelingwoudl subside, but it wasn't. I'm going to look into other pills....

Well, some good news... I posted below about getting bad gas and being dizzy after only 4 days using Yasmin. But now after 2 weeks those side effects have disapated. I called my gyno and she urged me to stick with it a little while longer and I did. I'm glad I did. The side effects are gone, my mood seems to be upbeat lately, and my skin is getting clearer. Hope it all lasts!
