Anxiety and depression after stopping Norethisterone

I took Norethisterone for 10 days to delay my period recently. No massive side effects whilst taking it, but two days after taking the last tablet, I experienced anxiety like never before. Heart pounding, mind racing, hysterical crying, shaking etc. Also, awful depressive thoughts. I feel slightly better now (one day on).

I've read that Norethisterone can cause this, but would it still be the Norethisterone if it happened two days after I stopped taking it?

It really scared me. It's not like me at all to feel so anxious. I felt like I was having a breakdown or something Sad

Yes I went a bit crazy on Norethisterone. I think it was when I was taking it though, rather than when I stopped...
