Does the Pill EVER settle down as the Dr's say it will

[MrsC_0417]

Hi Ladies,

In hoping for some advice with regards to the Pill. My GP put me on Levest back in January with the instructions to take back to back with a break at 3 months. Initially I struggled with severe cramping and spotting which I'm happy to say have now settled. What hasn't settled in the slightest is the horrendous depression the pill has plummeted me into. I have never in my life felt like this, I'm convinced the whole world is against me and could burst into tears at any given moment! My social life has suffered as has my marriage.

This isn't me!!!!

The GP has suggested anti-depressants but as I see it the pill has caused these feelings so surely the answer shouldn't be just 'take more drugs!' ????

Sorry for the long post, what I'm really hoping to find is someone who experienced depression in the first few months of the pill and had it settle after the 6 or so month mark like the GP says it will because at the moment I would gladly go back to having a monthly period if it meant I could feel like me again.
