birth control
"I had this birth control in since right after I gave birth. I was terrified of them, but I didn't want to get pregnant again yet. The first while was awful; mood swings, severe headaches, the works. BUT...after all of that, it got settled down. I have been on it for the whole first round and when it expired I got another. With it, I feel more balanced, more calm, like for the first time I can think clearly. My periods are lighter, and it gives me a peace of mind, lIke i never have anxiety anymore. I have gained about 10-20 lbs on it in the past 4-5 years, occasionally have acne if super stressed, but it has been a blessing for me overall not having anxiety or heavy periods."
