"i have had the birth control for 4 years now in the first 3 years i was fine. ever since i got it replaced after the 3rd year i just cant take it anymore. i just like the side affects of it i&#039;m always tired at work which is bad because i tend to fall asleep without even knowing it. i have no energy all i really want to do is stay in the bed and sleep. i&#039;ve even slept a whole day literally only got up to eat and went back to sleep. when my period comes my back hurts really bad and i get really bad cramps. i have mood swings all the time. i cry unexpectedly i feel very depressed i sit in the dark at my house every day. don&#039;t get me wrong this birth control works really good but the side effects for me are becoming to extreme."
