Hi CLKD, I've been trying to work that out, but am stuggling to reach a conclusion.  My periods have been very irregular for years, and now I'm on the mirena coil I have spotting for more days than not.  I've been keeping a log, but I just don't really know.  My gut tells me that it probably is, but I've been really low for over a month now with very few brighter days.  Just hoping that the longer I'm on HRT, things will start to settle and I'll get a better picture (3 months on Mirena, just over 2 on estradot patch).  What's annoying is that on my lowest days I sometimes lose the will to record my symptoms properly, so my data isn't as good as I'd like.

I suggest that you get some appropriate medication, some do require HRT as well as anti-depressant and/or anti-anxiety support.  Once U begin to feel better which may take 8-12 months+, you can wean off the ADs.
