Has anyone else found that birth control has made their depression worse? I have been doing well with my depression lately but then I started taking birth control and it seems to be getting worse

      Yep. Very depressed as well as irritable. I only lasted a handful of months. I didn’t have the patience to keep trying and thankfully I had the privilege of being able to quit.

      I’m sorry that sucks. I’ve had the opposite side effect but I’m pulling for you!
