Depression After the Pill Posted: 04-28-07 20:07pm
I stopped taking the pill in Jan. because
my husband and I want to become pregnant.
Since coming off the pill (I was on birth
control for nearly 10 years) I seem to be
depressed. Things that usually make me
happy don't, I don't want to do anything
but stay home in bed, when I leave for
work I cry, and I find myself having no
desire to talk to family members and
friends that I often talk too. All that
has changed in my life in the past few
months is the absence of the pill.
I have done research and have only been
able to locate info on depression related
to persons actually on the pill. Anyone
ever felt like this after not taking the
pill? I am also concerned with going on
anitdepressants because we are trying to
conceive, any advice?
