"i can honestly say this birth control almost ruined my life. immediately i noticed a change in my mood and was crying all the time which wasnt like me. after being on it for a few months i started getting these weird light headed spells. i would mostly just ignore them until around month 8 i had a full blown panic attack out of no where. i had never experienced anything like this before and was extremely scared. that developed into months of anxiety and panic disorder. when i finally realized it was the bc causing my issues i stopped taking it and my anxiety went away. that was 4 years ago and i have never experienced anything like that again so i 100% believe it was because of avaine."
