What is wrong with me? Is it the anxiety or the pill?

Hi I've suffered from anxiety for a couple of years now I haven't got any professional help for it but starting to think I really need to I've also been on the pill Cerazette for just over 8 weeks now. My main problem started about a weeks ago I was always having anxiety that my boyfriend who I've been with for 8 months now would leave me or find someone better I know I was being silly but these thoughts would just keep coming in my head no matter how I tried to stop them. But one day last week I suddenly felt as though I had no love for me boyfriend and we wasn't very connected anymore, when I was around him I didn't feel as excited and wasn't interested in sex or kissing and the thought of him leaving me

Didn't hurt me anymore it's like I turned into a different person with different feeling but this is really upsetting me as I know these feelings aren't true I love him and want a future with him he's not given me any reason to not love him anymore it's really upsetting me. The other day I felt like myself again and couldn't keep my hands off him but now I'm back to this again I hate it! No matter how much I tell myself I'm being silly these stupid thoughts come back in to my head and ask me do you really love him? And it's stupid I know I do! But I spend every minute of the day worrying about why I'm feeling like this and having these thoughts that I don't want I'm starting to analyse everything when I'm with him like if I don't want to kiss etc I'm like is it because I don't really love him? I've stopped taking the pill the other day to see if it helps or could it be my anxiety? Because it feels my mind has to constantly have something to worry about like this is what made me question if I love him because he made me feel so assured about us so my mind relaxed and I thought what else could make him leave me and my mind went what if you don't really love him? So I'm not sure which it could be but it's really starting to mentally drain me I just want to escape from my mind please someone help me sad

    Hi Emma,

    Hard to say what's going on as you say you've suffered anxiety before. However, Cerazette is known for causing mood changes in some individuals so it might well be that this has made an existing condition worse.

    If it was the Cezrazette that caused all this, the effects will continue for a while after stopping it. Give things a chance to settle down for a couple of weeks, then reassess the situation. It sounds as if this particular pill might not be right for you.

    Hi Emma, 

    How are you feeling now? i'm going through something similar right now, and just want it to stop. It's actually quite common, it's called relationship anxiety and not a lot of people know that they have it. I just wanted to see if you were feeling a bit better? i have been struggling with this for 4 weeks now and can't see the light
