We had dinner at my parents last night w/ DHs parents and both my mom and MIL (separately) asked me today if i was ok bc i didnt seem normal yesterday.

Re: Off BCP and is it normal to....
I think it's definitely possible because BCP effects your hormones which can alter your moods. Did you just recently go off BC? I went off it in the fall and it took me a while to re-learn my body; different moods, PMS symptoms etc. It's not fun at all but I feel so much better being off of them after 8 long years.

I had major mood swings when I went off birth control. I think it is probably normal.

I went off mid-January. I was on for 2 yrs. Before that i had LOOOONG cycles (about 40 days sometimes) and i was surprised that this cycle was only 31 days. I HOPE it stays this way.
I hope i brighten up soon

I hope for your sake they stay on the shorter side too. It's been driving me crazy. For the first 2 months off BC mine were like that as well then they jumped to approx 40 days then 60 days and now the past few months back to around 34/35 days. It's soooo frustrating!!!!!

Re: Off BCP and is it normal to....
When you 1st went on the BCP, did it make you depressed/moddy/more or less emotional? If so, it could now just be your body adjusting back. Either way, hormones are involved, and when that happens...well there's bound to be some emotion.
Stay positve, you'll be back to your old self soon!
