"it&#039;s first time taking birth control, so i wasn&#039;t completely sure what to expect. i&#039;ve been taking it for two weeks now and it has made me extremely emotional, nauseous every morning (i take the pill at night), i have no appetite, my boobs are very sore, and i&#039;ve had spotting after my period for about a week now. i&#039;d say the worst side effect is my emotional state. i went from being a completely optimistic and happy person to feeling depressed and off balance every day. i&#039;ve cried almost every single day and for no reason. i hate this feeling. i don&#039;t feel like myself at all. i&#039;m going to continue with the first three months (unless the effects worsen) only because i already paid for it, but i&#039;ll be talking to my dr about switching."
