"i forgot to add that while i was on this pill, during the second month that i was taking it, for the two weeks that i was tapering off the active pills and going into the sugar pills, i felt so incredibly disturbed and crazy. i started feeling extremely anxious and like i was going to die. i also had thoughts of killing myself during those two weeks. i&#039;ve noticed this on the nuvaring too, which makes me think i&#039;m really sensitive to estrogen. if you have depression and anxiety i really don&#039;t recommend this pill because in my own experience, already knowing i have it, it made life a living hell during the last two weeks. i&#039;m going to see if switching to a no-estrogen pill will work or possibly try an iud."
