Dyazide and panic attack

I don't have a side effect to report, but I have read all of your responses. Over all they are 95% negative. The only thing I am wondering, is WHY you chose Yaz to begin with.

I have been thinking about taking Yaz to help with my severe PMDD. If you don't know what that is, basically it's like the moodiness side of PMS times 10. I am euphorically happy normally, lol, kind of like how happy a cocker spaniel is when their family gets home... except I don't piddle on the floor. About 5 days before my period starts I go into a very deep depression, I bloat, I am irritable, and my entire life suffers. I cry (wail is more like it) for absolutely NO reason... blah blah blah. But once I am about 2 or 3 days into my cycle it all passes and I am back to chipper me.

Long story short, I heard Yaz is supposed to be amazing to help stabilize emotions in people like me. How many of you started Yaz just as birth control, or as an acne control? How many of you took it for PMDD and it STILL didn't help?

I am new to birth control. Last week was my third week on Yaz. The first 2 weeks on it, I was fine. No real symptoms, but the third week, I began having anxiety (which I have never had before) and my heart would race every now and then. Also, I had a major loss of appetite. I would have to make myself eat even though I felt like gagging. I would try to go to sleep, but the anxiety would be too bad. (I took my pill at 8:00 every night) So, I stopped taking them. Yesterday was my second day off of the pill and all I wanted to do was sleep. (I guess from the lack of sleep due to the anxiety/panic attacks) Today my appetite is slowly coming back.
I contacted my GYN and they said they have never heard of those side effects from Yaz...but I looked it up online and there are tons of women complaining of the same thing.
They now want me to try Loestrin...which I am very hesitant of. I don't want to get my body back to normal and then start with the same problems again.

I am getting married in October and of course we don't want a baby right away....I must say...the old school condoms are looking like a better option every day!
