Has anyone experienced worsening depression from taking birth control, or more specifically, Yaz?

Birth control pills made me depressed and angry!! I never did tolerate any of the three I tried. I didn't know at the time that I was bipolar, or I might not have tried them. Then again, lots of BP's do fine on birth control pills. We're all individuals. I just thought you'd like to know that you're not alone.

I didn't connect the increase to anxiety to bc until reading the side effects closely. I have never really had a huge problem with anxiety but recently I've been terribly anxious about every little thing.
