Quitting birth control

Hey! I would like some feedback on things you noticed or had happen when you went off the pill? I have tried once before and during the first month I had random severe cramping that would last maybe 2 minutes or so about everyday if not every other day. They would just hit me out of no where and it would be so very painful. I ended up getting back on the pill and now I’m thinking of getting off of it for good. Did this happen to anyone else? If so how long did this last?
