I have been on Yaz for the past couple months, and have been on other birth control pills for about two years now. Since then, I have been separated from my boyfriend when I moved away to college. We value eachother so much that there is no way we would let the distance kill it like so many others easily do. However, I have been consistenly feeling depressed 3 out of the 4 weeks I'm on Yaz and it has lead to rediculous but intense arguments that are usually caused by my mood swings. My boyfriend remains compassionate and forgiving, even when I say the cruelest things.
I'm honestly sick of switching birth control pills because the ones I've been on have either caused horrible acne breakouts or put me in a constant bad mood with an almost dead sex drive.
So, I want to get off of them altogether and go back to the optimistic and laid-back person I was before I got on them. However, I'm going to visit my boyfriend this week and am horribly paranoid of getting pregnant. I know he will never pressure me to do anything I dont want to(he wants to properly plan for kids, too), but I don't want to happen to have a couple of drinks while I'm around him, lose inhibitions, and make a huge mistake.

What should I do?
