Oh sweetie...do I understand or WHAT????!!! It is DEF going to get better. Seriously. I was on the pill for five years and I came off it 2 days before I moved to NYC to start a brand new life after marrying my New Yorker husband...it was an emotional time anyway...but LORD! I felt like I had been hit by a truck too. D and C and both at the same time. Nausea. Depression. Bloating. Loads of zits. Now I am 11 months off it and I have developed a 33 day cycle. It took me about 4 months to get a regular cycle...my first period was 45 days off the pill...and mine happened to be light...but now they are heavier. We are all different. But seriously...don't go back on the pill...it will confuse your body even more. Hang in there. Eat really simply food and if you need to sob and then laugh at the same time due to the hormones...do it!! ONe thing my husband was happy about was that the pill completely took away my sex drive in the last year so as soon as I went off it I was crazy for sex!! That was a good thing...even if I was a pizza face for a while. I am currently having reaaaally bad PMS. I discovered from going off the pill that I have one good easy month and one bad month...this is a bad month. I am nauseous, have D...so queasy. But my husband commented that I am nowhere near as zitty as I was when I first went off the pill. So I really understand what you are going through...get some exercise that gives you a good sweat...it really helps. Good luck!
