Contraceptive pill and mental health

So I started taking Desogestrel on Monday this week yesterday and today I have started to feel increasingly anxious and not quite myself.. not bad enough to be really concerned about at the minute but also don't want these feelings to escalate further. I have history of anxiety but recently without any hormonal birth control I have been feeling really content.

Could this change in mood/anxiety be due to the pill after taking it for under a week? I am seriously contemplating stopping it. Has anyone experienced similar and how long did it take to feel normal again when you stopped?
