@sabrinaperez08, nervousness and depression are listed as side effects of medroxyprogesterone (Depo-Provera) shot. I highly recommend talking to your doctor about whether to continue or to consider another option of birth control. Are you still feeling anxious and suffering from panic attacks or have those feelings lessened since you had the shot?

@colleenyoung it's still the same I feel like its got worsen since my next due date is Feb 1st but it might be me who's making it worst by thinking about Alot but I get numb hands and arms then I feel dizzy and can't focus I'm 18 turning 19 in 3 days and I'm super scared I hate this feeling I just want it gone I want to switch to a non hormonal birth Control but I heard for that to happen I have to wait for the control to come out my system and Idk how ling thats gonna be cuz I read other girls experiences and they didn't get back to normal for about a year or more but I don't know if that's Bc they been on it for more then 2 years cuz I only been on my first shot for almost 3 months it's gonna be 3 months on Feb 1st

@colleenyoung I too have felt these sypmtoms, do you believe that they will lessen? The very first day that I got the shot my body got super anxious and scared, it is day two and I had multiple mini panic attacks, usually when I felt them starting I was able to control myself but now I am very scared that these symptoms might just get a bit worse.
