"i have been taking this birth control for 6 months and i have finally decided to stop taking it. although it did help eliminate my acne, regulate my cycle, and prevent pregnancy, the cons outweigh the pros for me. at first i didn&#039;t really experience too many negative side effects, but as time has gone on i have become severely depressed, moody, and unmotivated. i am constantly tired and have become extremely forgetful about even simple things. i have become overly anxious and paranoid. i did have anxiety at times before the pill, but it was never this bad. my breasts are constantly sore and i have absolutely no sex drive anymore. none at all. i know it&#039;s this pill causing this and i need to stop taking it so i can feel like myself again."
