What the petition asks
There are many accounts of how the pill has damaged people’s mental well-being, creating anxiety and depression to the points of suicidal thoughts, people being hospitalised for severe anxiety attacks and prescribed anti depressants.
Hundreds of girls will be willing to share their story on how this pill has effected them and how they are in a completely different position just for taking something that was taken to benefit them. The pill is not always used to prevent pregnancies but for control of periods to, the last thing that should happen is damaging effects from taking the pill.
