Did I just find the cause of my craziness??

I've had the Mirena about a year now. I didn't have issues with it when I first got it and always thought things were fine with it until now. So 8 months into Mirena everything went downhill but I never associated it with the Mirena because i had it for so long that I figured it would have affected Me as soon as I got it inserted!!

I've been dealing with the worst Depression and anxiety and just overall negativity that has literally put my life on hold for the past 4 months. I barely want to get out of bed. I've felt so crazy for the past months but maybe just maybe I found the cause!!

It's been so bad that all I do is think about negative thoughts about myself and my life and everything and I mean everything overwhelms me. I have no motivation for anything! Been isolating... It's like I've lost my sense of self and a capacity to feel joy and love. I've had suicidal thoughts and cry all the time. I just feel incapable of everything....


The thing is that it was kind of sudden for me and everything just went downhill. I used to be a heavy sleeper and now I'm a light sleeper among other random things... I thought it was Candida or an unhealthy lifestyle which are probably issues for me too but I've always had this lifestyle so why all of a sudden ??

I don't want to be off of birth control but if the Mirena is the cause I'm getting rid of it ASAP !!

What do you ladies think? Can anyone relate?

I dug up some old posts and it seemed like other people have had similar situations Tweet
