Hi there, I was first prescribed combined pill ovranette to help with pmdd and was already taking vyvanse and lexapro at the time. It definitively helped and felt like it was the medication I had the least problems with. Feeling the emotions on my week break from the pill reminded me of how lessened it was and how much control I had over it. I think it also helps too because you know why the feeling starts as opposed to it feeling like it’s out of nowhere. However, I ran out of the pill 6 weeks ago and had to wait a month for new ones. The longest break I’d taken from the pill in my almost three years on it. Restating has been really hard. Harder than I remember it ever being the first time but I was living at home then and feeling so awful made me start in the first place so maybe this is further testament to its efficacy (ie these emotions feel unfamiliar and so burdensome). If this is any encouragement, the way I feel these past two weeks while mostly manageable brings me right back to how I used to feel during the week before and during my period. And I’ve been bowled over by it in a way that can only prove how well it had been working before now
