"i switched bc because i was worried about being on depo for 8 years.  first i switched to the arm implant and delt with the month long bleeding and hormonal changes for almost a year before finally being put on falmina. yes, i did bleed 7+ days the first placebo week but by the second i was already seeing improvement. now this also happened to corrolate with me finally conquering my decade long opiate addiction so i&#039;m not sure how much of my mood swings were attributed to that or the bc  but the mood swings were intense. yes, i got super anxious and depressed but when i found something that made me happy it felt as if the happiness permeated my entire being. sexually active with my man everyday for a year with no protection, still no baby"
