This pill might not be right for you. It is a commen side effect but it doesn't have to be. I took 4 different pills till I found the right one that works for me. Maybe talk to your doctor about trying a different one.
Hi!! Ive been on birth control for the past 3 years and when I started it made me feel this way as well. After being on them for awhile it honestly went away it just took time but It also may be the brand not working for you the best as others could! If you are able I would recommend maybe a different type of birth control such as the implant, shots, patches, or etc just to see whats best for you
@Aubree12 How did you know to not stop taking it and wait it out?
I FEEL THIS. I started about a month and a half ago and had to stop two days ago because it was making me depressed and suicidal. Right now I’m waiting out the storm and hoping my brain and hormones rebalance and hopefully try a different brand
I have a question My OCD has felt almost invisible the past few weeks and now that is starting to stress me out a lot. Right now I am at a point in my treatement where I was asked if I would like to take medication. I told my therapist this week that I would like to try the medication based on how miserable I feel in during OCD flare ups. But now my brain always tells me that I only go throught this treatement etc. to seek attention and that I am just dramatic and should be ashamed of myself for wanting to take this medication. So now I am doubting if I should take the medication or not. Any advice?
I think I’m going through the hardest depression right now. I’ve never felt so compelled to just stop getting up and stop living. I know it’s hard to hear, I just really feel bad. Right now I even feel like an attention seeker. I just wanted to know, are there any tips to raise me from this hole im in? Has anyone else felt like this an pulled themselves out?
Hey friends, I hope you all are well. I just wanted to check in and ask people's experiences about being on medication. I have had OCD pretty much my whole life, just got recently diagnosed 4 months ago and my therapist recommended that I get on meds for it so I have a psychiatrist appointment set up. I'm a little apprehensive about getting on them, but I've realized that I do have some sort of chemical imbalance in my brain that plays a part in my OCD and anxiety. I would love to hear anyones experiences or words of encouragement. Thank you, I hope you all are well.
