I’m 49 and have been taking Evorel 50/Conti in combination with the mini pill for around 7 months. During this time my anxiety has grown alarmingly high, I’ve put on around 2 stone in weight, haven’t slept properly for couple of years and continue not to. My previously mild IBS is now awful and I have lost focus and find everything an effort. I’ve taken Citolopram for a few years as I’m a naturally anxious person but it never seems to help anymore.
I try to eat well, take regular exercise and to view this as just a phase of my life but I’m beginning to wonder if this will ever end. I honestly feel so awful. I’m sorry this is such a depressing post, but I just want to feel well again.
