Birth Control recommendations?

Hi Girls,

I need to go on a new birth control pill because something shady is going on with the company of my old one. I can only get the generic form and after 1 month of taking it I broke out and gained weight! Can anyone recommend a pill that will not make me gain weight, break out or make me crazy? HA. Thanks!!!

I'm starting Depo-Provera again. I was on it after the birth of my first son, never had any problems and you get the shot every 3 months.

I'm on the patch. It's great, you don't even have to think about it! I didn't gain weight, my skin looks clearer than ever and I haven't gotten any CRAMPS EVER!
