Second Mirena, had to have a first out as it gave me inflamed vulva. No other symptoms and my periods had stopped and if anything I felt happier. Decided to give another one a go after a break. I have very heavy periods that were causing iron deficieny which in turn caused me to feel depressed.
This one I got mid Nov, had been fine, hardly any spotting. But for the last 5 days I have had absolutely horrendous anxiety/depression symptoms. It turned on like a switch. My brain suddenly pinged to an old traumatic work memory and then started searching out things to worry about (I have always struggled with work stress in the past but am in a better role now). Now I am having the most insane thoughts which I rationally know are insane but it's like a cloud of doom.
Will this pass? I can't live like this. I take primrose oil for PMT and have done for the last 20 years and that has limited it to usually only 24 hours of mood symptoms. This is now several days in. I can't just take this Mirena out as I feel like I am back to square one. I don't know what to do to be honest.
