Is birth control making me depressed?

Alex

Hello ladies, I am currently on Yaz and have been since April 2019 and while I’ve experience zero side effects I’ve become more and more irritable and the mood swings are more frequent. I feel down almost all the time and can basically cry on cue. I get upset about the tiniest things and I’m just wondering if this has happened to anyone else? Should I stop taking it? Should I switch to another pill?
