For Birth Control "Do not recommend this birth control, Elinest, it made me severely depressed to the point I had to receive help. I also had hot flashes, spotting, migraines, mood swings, acne, water retention, and nausea. I was only on it for 4 months, but that was enough time for me to completely lose myself. I hope this helps someone else going through the same roller coaster."

For Birth Control "This is horrible. I broke out so bad, and I had pimples for MONTHS. Then it left me with such bad acne scars and hyperpigmentation. The only reason I got on this pill was to clear my acne, and it backfired on me so bad. On top of that, my feelings were always low, and I always felt sad. 0/10. This is the worst birth control."

For Birth Control "This is one awful birth control. I only took it for 6 days, and around day 4, I started having heavy feelings of depression. So I stopped it, and then the very next day, I got hit with a huge wave of severe depression and anxiety. Had anxiety attacks and depression bad for 2 weeks following, and around week 3, my mood started to slowly return. I'm in week 4 now and still feel a little down and am still having anxiety. Also, my heart feels like it's pounding out of my chest, and my body constantly trembles. 10 out of 10 do not recommend. This has ruined my life! Hope I recover soon."
