birth control
"I have been using Apri for 5 months, and having had any weight gain and no decrease in sex drive.  I have, however, experienced harsh emotional side-effects.  During the week of my period - as soon as I hit the 22 day - I am just ridiculously emotional.  I am irrational and will cry at the drop of a hat.  I'm worried about this having put me into a state of depression and am going to speak with my doctor soon about it.  This puts my boyfriend in a bad position because he never knows what to do and feels bad but gets frustrated with my being so irrational.  I'd be cautious taking it if you have ever had any experience with depression, cutting, etc."
