Just wondering if anyone here is/was on any birth control and can suggest something better for me. I've noticed that these past couple months, my mood swings have made me feel like I'm going insane, in conjunction with my birth control pill cycle (it'll start happening about a week before my period). It's really putting a huge strain on my relationship with...well, everyone. I think I've scared all my friends away and I can tell my boyfriend is getting annoyed with my behavior. One minute I'm going off like a homicidal maniac and the next I'm about to swallow a bottle of pills or drive off a bridge, and I mean this VERY literally. I can't take it anymore

Is it the hormones? Are there any good, non-hormonal birth controls besides condoms/pulling out? I'm considering getting Paragard IUD but I'm scared after reading a bunch of horror stories lol
