Off the pill - could not be happier.

A serious weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Who would've thought the pill could make someone so uncharacteristically snappy and short tempered.
I feel like my old chilled out self again :yes:

I'm now late for my second period, as was my firsst, but I guess it's to be expected.
The only thing bad, about coming off the pill is not having the control over when you're on. Apart from that, it's been the best decision I've made in years.
After being on the pill for a few months and the weight it made me put Istopped taking it.
My boyfriend does his best to influence me going back on it because in the difference in sensitivity he gets but I always forget to take one somehwere along the line. I think his skin feels much nicer too
Again I dont like the thought of the implat or coil and EVERYONE says the injection makes you gain loads of weight so condoms it is
Same here. I had the coil put in after i had my son but a couple of year's after having it in i got rushed into hospital so i went back on the pill, so that is out of the question too
There are plenty of other alternatives both hormonal and nonhormonal that don't include condoms. If the pill you are on is making you crazy or having adverse side effects there are plenty of other options. Including other pills too, each different one is likely to have different effects on you. One pill made me go crazy, but a couple other methods did not, including the pill I am on now.
Haha, that can be avoided with a bit of practice with putting them on with your mouth. Teehee.
