Hi all,
Long story short, I decided to come off the progesterone only pill after having been on it for 8 years. I haven't taken it for 1 week, and I was not expecting to feel the way i'm feeling at all..
About 3 days in I started experiencing what I can only describe as extreme, all consuming anxiety, dissociation and panic, almost out of body feelings. I have also been extremely dizzy and exhausted but really struggling to fall asleep. My head feels so heavy and achey, I've been more thirsty than normal, lack of appetite and very bloated/water retention.
I have only heard about positive things for coming off the pill, there seems to be very little info online. I was prepared for bleeding to begin, but I feel completely and utterly mental right now.. Has anyone experienced anything remotely similar? I'm assuming it must be hormone withdrawal as its the only thing thats changed in the last week.
Feeling quite freaked out, any advice would be super welcome. Thanks.
