 3  General Anxiety Drowsiness, lack of coherence, limited short term memory, headaches, delayed periods with horrible PMS, emptiness I started taking it to get rid of my overarching feelings of dread and malaise. It did that. I'm not afraid of people when I'm on the pill. I don't feel like the world is going to end. The bad thing though, is that now there's just nothing. I'm empty. Not completely apathetic but not really enthused about anything? On top of being sort of empty inside, I've been getting horrible headaches every single day. My period cramps are also not really doing me any favours. I have horrible short term memory now and often forget simple things as soon as I hear them. Everything sort of feels like it's covered in saran wrap. Overall, not an awful drug, but not a good one, and I will probably be asking my doctor for an alternative that won't make me feel like a blurry nihilistic mess. 22 2 weeks
