Depression and Birth Control?

Question

Any ladies who suffer from depression or anxiety and are on birth control? Which one works for you?

Answer

I have an anxiety disorder and I'm currently taking the mini pill.

Answer

All birth control pills I have tried made my anxiety disorder and minor depression worse. So I'm about to try other options such as the patch. I refuse to get the shot again though knowing it affects fertility and I did one shot of depo a few years ago and it made me a hormonal mess. Honestly everything is different for everyone though. You just have to try different kinds and see which is best for you. Good luck!

Answer

Marvelon worked really well for me, I found it evened out my hormones in a way that actually helped my mood swings which had a knock on effect as to how I cope with my depression
