Combined Pill, COVID and feeling like I'm losing my mind

Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation. I started having issues with my pill last year. Timeline is had first and second COVID vaccines mid summer ish, started having missed periods and sore boobs from about September whilst I was on cilique which I had been absolutely fine on for over 3 years. Spoke to the doctors who put me on a slightly lower dose of estrogen, this made me irrationally angry at everything so change to an even lower dosage, this made me almost suicidal and low, now switched to even lower dosage for the last few months and I keep weeping and my emotions are up and down all of the time. When I speak to the doctors they always ignore the emotional side of things and focus on my breast pain which is still all over the place. Is it my pill that's making me feel this way or am I depressed, anxious or something else?
Can anyone offer any advice, or have they been through something similar?
Honestly feel like I'm losing it

The pill made me insane. I ended up in A and E. Got off it quick, and glad about it.

Oh my gosh, what happened if you don't mind me asking. I have days where I feel semi normal and functional but just don't feel like I can handle anything anymore
