Please, spare me the psychology talk. This is just a panic attack, plain and simple. It’s something I’ve been dealing with constantly lately. Look, the most important thing is that when it hits, you don't let the panic take over. 🙂Just try to relax and breathe deep. For me, meditation and talking things through did the trick. My boyfriend really stepped up, too—whenever I started getting restless, I’d just talk to him, describe exactly what was happening to me, and he truly helped me through it.

People are naturally terrified of the unknown and anything they can't quite grasp. But honestly? Every time one of these attacks happens, it's just an opportunity to get to know it, to study it...

Don't sweat it. Most people go through this; they just don't talk about it. Don't think you're crazy or anything like that. It's perfectly normal. And I'm certain you'll get past this, because you're much tougher than some basic fear. 😍

I’ve been on Apollo 11 for about a year now, and lately, I’ve been dealing with some pain during intercourse along with a massive drop in my libido. Honestly, it freaked me out. I actually thought I was coming down with some serious illness until I stumbled upon this forum and read that it might actually be a side effect of the pills. If anyone else has dealt with this, please reach out. I really need to know if this is actually caused by the medication or if it's something else entirely.

By the way, I have two doses left and I’m planning on stopping anyway, so does anyone have recommendations for better alternatives? Thanks.
