Moodiness on Deop...does it get better?
I got the depo shot for the first time about three weeks ago, and since then I have been a complete wreck. I was aware before that the shot can cause emotional problems, but I had no idea how bad it could be. It's only been three weeks and I feel like everything is falling apart...I don't want to eat, I can't sleep, I don't want to go to work or school, not to mention that I have been completely on edge. I'm engaged to a great guy who's beginning to wonder if my true colors are starting to show, and THIS IS NOT ME!! We've had more problems in the last three weeks than we ever had, and I'm very afraid the next few months I might completely ruin it. I'm falling behind in my classes, I'm having problems at my job, and I am treating everyone horribly...I am not going to get another shot, but I want to know, are the next three months of my life going to be like this? Does it get easier when the hormone starts to wane down?
Um, in my experience, no. Depo was the worst possible thing I could have done for my emotional and mental well being. I turned into mental psycho chick quickly and it took a few months after I was due for another shot to feel a bit normal again.
On the positive side, you've had only one, so maybe it won't last as long.

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch.
Amen
Whoever said anything was possible obviously never tried slamming a revolving door.
