Reading a forum...
Well, well. Turns out I'm not the only one who suffered side-effects for over two years after stopping Yasmin.
I'm amused that the forum members refer to it as "the poison" - accurate. So very accurate.
*still holds a deep grudge*
At least I'm not this poor woman. 5 years of recovery? Yikes. My personality is resurfacing after two and a half. :\
...
...I'm just Google-searching and writing this because I've had motivation issues ever since that damned pill.
I'd rather be a half-crazed hyperactive jerk than a laid-back, detached lump. *sigh* I'm improving. I'm improving.
...I just wish I could go back to two years ago and be the way I am now.

A post-marketing study last November by eHealthMe (which analysed data from the FDA and women who take the pills) found that 42 per cent of Yasmin users experienced severe anxiety and emotional distress. Of those taking Yaz, 60 per cent suffered anxiety and/or emotional distress.
Now you tell me....I'm just Google-searching and writing this because I've had motivation issues ever since that damned pill.
