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."

For Birth Control "I’ve only been on Cryselle for a week, and I’m already experiencing anxiety. I would not recommend this pill to anyone!"
