"i&#039;m 18. i&#039;ve been on the depo shot for 2 and a half months, i&#039;m due for my next one in a couple weeks and i really don&#039;t want it. the first month was fine, no side effects and got my period like normal it only lasted me 5 days but the 2nd month was so bad. terrible back aches, cramps, mood swings, when i first started out i had depression but its worse now to the point where i have suicidal thoughts, the worst pain in my bones that wouldn&#039;t let me do simple things like bend over to pick something up, get out of bed, or pick up my nephew and i got my period 2 weeks ago, at the end of september and i still have it now in the beginning of october as heavy as ever. i&#039;m scared about how long its gonna last."
