    Different pills give different people different side effects. They normally say it can take up to 3 months to settle down, if at all, so you should leave it for a bit longer, unless you really can't take it...go back to your doctor and ask if you can try another pill. There are plenty of different ones and all work as well as each other but some react better for different people.
    I'd say go and have a chat with the doctor or nurse or someone and see if they say to wait and see if it settles or to change pill now.
    Good luck!

    The doc will probably say give it time to settle down but I think you should switch pills because my friends was like that for months n its only when she came off it that she actually felt happy

    I didnt have any trouble with mine, but different people do have different reactions to all the differnt sorts of pill. Your side effects sound pretty bad so I'd do back to the doctor or nurse and see if you can get it sorted.:) Dont worry, its liley that there will be a pill which suits you just right out there!

    Apparently the pill made me moody, but I was moody before so I never even noticed but my sister and my mates noticed. Not sure if that was just the first few months or if it stil makes me moody? If it carries on then I think you should tell the doctor and get it changed, although it could just be that your body needs to get used to it, so maybe give it more time depending on how depressed and moody it is making. There are loads of side effects with the pill, reading the booklet provided with a packet may help?
