ok so i was wondering if nausea,constipation,diarrhea,weight gain in my stomach,bloating in my stomach and a horrible feeling of being full,acne,anxiety,nervousness,were signs of pms? im pretty sure ive read somewhere that they are but i wanted other womens opinions…also could the bad bloating be causing me to have to pee more often? feedback would be very helpful thank you =]
also my period should be starting within the next 6 to 9 days
no more opinions??

I just started using Ortho-Cyclen. What are some of your personal experiences with this birth control pill? Was it an effective form of pregnancy prevention? Did it clear up existing acne? I’m also concerned with the breast enlargement side effect. Any thoughts or input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I was on Ortho Trycyclen for 8 years. When I got off it, I gained 40 lbs and acne on my upper back and shoulders. I can’t stand it. I went back on the pill. Now they said I have PCOS, so I started Yasmin. The acne has not gone away yet. What can I do to get rid of it on my back? For good? Sysillic acid? Any pills?

I suffer from Anxiety and OCD. I need psychotherapy urgently, however in the UK there is a waiting list of 12 months or more. I have been using the local Mental Health Crisis team who visit me at my home daily but find them inexperienced and useless.

I have seen the psychiatrist a few times and they insist that i take heavy anti psychotics like Olanzapine (Zyprexa) or Qeitapine (Seroquil) as well as an anti depressants. I have taken these drugs in the past and they caused an EXTREME increase in appetite and very much slowed my metabolism. Seroquil gave me horrendous acne which left me scarred to the point that i had to spend a lot of money of surgery.

When you are applying a cream, foam, wash, alcohol pad, or any other acne prevention medication do you have to use soap first and the medication second.

Would you rather have cancer OR an OFFICIAL diagnosis of:

- Tourette’s Syndrome
- ADD
- Narcolepsy
- Bipolar disorder N.O.S. (Not Otherwise Specified, meaning it’s not a “classic” case)
- OCD
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Acne (once severe, now mild but persistent over >5 years)

We all know that cancer in and of itself is one of the worst things that could ever happen, but you also have to remember that most of those disorders NEVER go away, and some are very stigmatized. Either one is capable of devastating and destroying lives, and not just those of the people who have them.
