the shot is better btw. pills make it worse because it gives you "pregnancy" symptoms they make your body feel like it's preg so that you dont get preg. i think that the shot is waaaay better if you dont wanna get preg. but i heard that the mood swings stop after awhile you've been on it the best thing you should do is talk to your doc. or whoever/wherever you got the shot and talk to someone about the depression the shot & pill couldve made it worse. i was on both of them and stopped because i hated it! i have depression anxiety and anger probs. they made it worse for me. hopes this helps though.
birth control shot making me fat and moody? . i was on the pill for about 6 months but switched to the shot because of depression issues. i have been on the shot for about 9 months now and have gained about 30 pounds and am very moody. i need to be on birth control but don't know what method would work best for me.
