I've been a highkey mess recently

So I stopped smoking weed on the 13th December or so and went through lowkey physical withdrawal, which I didn't think was possible, but evidently it is. I really couldn't sleep and got hot sweats all night, and I had no appetite and felt sick whenever I ate. Then as soon as I got home I started the norethisterone version of the mini pill, which is basically the norethisterone I always take but in a tiny dose and only once a day (because the norethisterone I was taking before technically wasn't real birth control). Then my moods had been crazy up and down, and when they were down I was very low, and really worried about going back to germany. I smoked on the 23rd, and also decided to stop taking these pills so I could rule them out as fucking up my moods. When my mood is normal that obviously seems to be what the issue is, but when my moods are low I'm paranoid I've given myself depression by smoking too much weed. Like right now I doubt that's the case but when I do think that it's scary and awful. So anyway I'm off the pills and not smoking for the foreseeable future until I'm alright again. And as of today I'm having a bad and crampy bleed which is a horrible result of me taking those pills and then stopping. So this has been an update just for my own future reference basically.

I'm mostly alright

Since Greg went back to uni on New year's Day I've only had a couple of low mood swings, and they've been a lot less severe to what I had before. I'm going back to Germany on Monday and I'm feeling alright about it, sometimes looking forwards to it but never dreading it like I was when I was at the peak of feeling shitty about a week and a half ago. I think what happened was that I stopped smoking and my body suffered for it for a couple of weeks and it definitely didn't do my mental health any favours. Then a week after I stopped as soon as I got back I started noriday and that made me depressed like the cerazette. Which I at first attributed to giving up smoking, then figured it probably wasn't. Smoked on the 23rd and also decided to stop the noriday. Felt shitty on the 24th and 25th unfortunately but then got a lot better. In the week after I had some very low mood swings, often for trivial reasons, but now I'm basically back to normal just with occasional milder low moods that I can combat pretty well. Got my blood results back and my T level was 15.4, so fine. Sent a letter to notts on the 5th, so hopefully they'll reply this time. Planning to not smoke for a while and I think the routine in Germany and the lack of worry about moving back after I've done it will do me good. And I've downloaded lots of films to watch too. I think I'm going to be fine.

How does a mini pill differ from a contraceptive pill?

Libby started smoking after leaving high school and her addiction increased during her university days, when she started dating Mark. It was a matter of few months only that they became serious about their relationship and looked forward to continue it for the rest of their lives. Being a sensible and practical woman, Libby always knew that to prolong her romantic life she could not depend on her partner completely. Moreover, she was never in favor of the idea of planned romantic intimacy. Naturally, to avoid the risk of pregnancy, she decided to take combined oral contraceptive pills but unfortunately found that the pills were not suited to her. Her doctor told her that combined oral contraceptive pills could cause her physical hazards as she is addicted to smoking. This is the time when Libby was advised to take Cerazette, a mini pill or progestogen-only pill.

Many women, especially those who smoke or are breastfeeding, are not recommended to take combined pills. In several cases oestrogen doesn’t suit the physical system of those women. In such cases, a mini pill or progestogen-only pill, such as Cerazette, Noriday, and Femulen, may be extremely effective for women who wish to prevent pregnancy with the help of oral contraceptives. Mini pills like Cerazette, Noriday, and Femulen need to be taken for the whole month - every day and almost at the same time. In case you forget to take a single dosage, within next 12 hours you may take the missed pill. These medications help to thicken cervical mucus of the womb and prevent sperm from fertilising an egg. Moreover, women with dysmenorrhea or painful periods are also relieved from experiencing hazards during their menstruation.
