I know lots of people love the Mirena. My experience was horrific - I wanted to die. Luckily it also slipped and caused bruising, and an infection, so I was able to have it removed without having to argue with my GP about it. I started to recover mentally and emotionally within days once it was out, though I'm still not back to normal.

How long did you have it for? And how did it make you feel?

Less than a week. It made me so unwell. I wasn't in a great place emotionally anyway, but it tipped me over from sadness to absolute despair, hopeless, desperate. There's a definite difference between feeling very sad because you're having a shitty time, and wanting to die because you're a ball of pain and can't see any way out. Two days after removal I could feel myself very gradually feeling better. Still not there yet.
