Ladies,

How do you deal???????

I am not sure if it is the birth control pills that I have been taking but I have never felt so anxious in my life. It's funny, when I get depressed - I don't eat. When I get anxious, I go crazy looking for food. Food that I don't even care about...I just want to munch on something.

I need to control this QUICK. I am out of control and need to get ahold of myself.

Help.
