I have a little work to do

Perhaps I had stupidly felt that I can conqured my anxiety.  I haven’t felt anxious - like I use to feel - in months.  Especially since Xmas.  But over the past 2 weeks I’ve been little miss anxious again.  Namely over my relationship and my job.  I don’t know where my relationship is going and if I had to guess, I would say down the drain.  And the shit hit the fan at work last week and its cause was mostly me.  I didn’t realize until last night that my bad habits and inexplainable crying have probably been caused by these two events.

So I still have a little bit of work to do in the anxiety dept.

    I went back on the Pill about a month and a half ago and I’ve haven’t been this depressed since November of 2004 (when all my bad stuff happened).
    I didn’t make the serious connection between Alesse and severe depression until today, when it hit me that this is probably the reason I woke up way too early and cried because I couldn’t go to school today.
    So yeah. I am no longer taking it. I can’t be sad any more.
    ps. My anxiety got worse too. I haven’t been this bad in awhile.

    Thats strange. Not in a huge way, but I never thought that the pill would cause it. I was on alesse and I didn’t like it and went off. this was a good few years ago. I enjoy the one I’m on Tricyclen. I’ve had no problems. but I do wonder every now and then what i would be like if I was off the pill. would I lose weight? would i be different.

    I have an appointment at the birth control clinic this aftrenoon to get a refill on my prescription (cause I can’t get into see a doctor here if I was dying). So I may be forced to change types depending on whether or not they give pills there or give prescriptions. they might not even give me anything because I don’t fall into the “low income” group. But I’m desperate to get a refill!!

    Apparently some lower dose estrogen pills (like Alesse) contain progestin which blocks serotonin. Of course, I can’t take Tricyclen because it makes me sick.
    I guess bcp’s are out of the picture for me.
