Yasmin & Yaz Survivors

I must admit, I am sitting in a lecture room, not really listening to my lecturer trying to explain generalisation gradients. The reason that I am not listening is due to the fact that I cannot get Yaz off my mind.
Today I googled yaz and loss of sex drive after reading a section of abnormal psychology which talks about sexual disorders. It reminded me a little of what I have been going through for the past two years.
I first went on Yaz about a year and a half ago. This was prescribed to me (by an aweful doc) after Microleven had started impacting on my everyday life. Yaz promised to regulate my periods, clear my skin and be generally more compatible with my internal needs.
It was around 5 months later that I finally went back to the doctor to talk about loss of labito, a lack of vaginal lubrication and a change in mood. My doctor told me that four months of reduced sex drive (non-existant) was nothing, and that everything else was due to my hormones, and my relationship.
This doc had treated me poorly in the past (if you want to know how then just ask) and this was the last straw.
I booked another appointment at 6 months of loss of labito with another doctor, who told me to fix my diet and get counselling for a poor relationship.
I was greatly offended by both doctors, as my relationship was perfect, asside from the fact that my boyfriend was going mental from sexaul deprivation.
As a consequence, I did not see another doctor until my partner urged me to see a good physician who was local. He was brilliant. He changed me to Juliet, and told me that if in 3-4 months I wasnt happy with where I was, I should come back for blood tests and a further talk. This appointment ended up taking a decent chunk out of my pay check. Because of a difficult financial situaition, I could not see this doctor again, and when nothing had changed, chose to take myself off birth control altogether.
This was an easy choice. I wasnt having sex, so why be on the pill.
I have now been off the pill for around a year, and good news, I am self lubricating and every now and again am randy.
Before the pill (pre 18th year) I was a horn dog. I was not moody all of the time, I was not irritable and my attention span was more than a few minutes. (I am not sure if the latter has anything to do with Yaz, but there is a correlation)
Now, my moods are a little more regular, and I have had sex within the past week, not within the past half year. My former self is on the horizon, and I'm going to catch up to her soon! Very Happy

Also, I mean mental in the sense that he thinks that he is not attractive (mainly due to the thought that he can't turn me on like he used to). I had to keep on telling him that nothing could turn me on, but within the last few weeks that has changed. Now our interactions are starting to stimulate me again.
