Birth Control And Depression

Hey ladies, i'm 20 years old and have been taking yasmin for about the past 4 months. I just wanted to say that reading all of your stories has helped take a huge weight (aka depression) off of me. I was diagnosed with depression and panic disorder at 15 and have been on zoloft eversince, and that combined with therapy has worked out great and allowed me to have a life unaffected by constant sadness. Since going on the pill however, I have been feeling sad and crying for no reason, feeling suspicious about my boyfriend and feeling like he doesn't care about me, getting frustrated about little things, and having trouble sleeping a few nights a week. I had been just blaming it on moving recently, and on starting a new waitressing job (which all you other servers know, can be very stressful! Lol)
today, I was driving home from my boyfriend's house and crying all the way. Why? There was no reason for me to be sad! I was thinking to myself, maybe I need to go on a higher dose of zoloft when all of a sudden it hit me- maybe I should go online and see if the pill has anything to do with depression? A little later, I was reading your stories and feeling amazed that so many women experienced the same feelings I do when they are on the pill. My symptoms didnt start right away, and snuck up on me, and I am realizing that instead of upping my zoloft, I need to look into alternatives for the pill!
So basically I wanted to say thank you for sharing your stories, and I want to add mine, that birth control has made me feel out of control moody and sad, not confident about my boyfriend, and restless. Now I can go back to being happy, and eventually, when i'm readu, go off zoloft as well. But i'll worry about that later on. For now, I need to get my hormones back in balance!
