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?
