Crying and mood swings????

I have been on birth control pills for a while now. Just started my 5th cycle of pills. My period has become predictable and I dont forget to take the pill each day. I have noticed it has changed my mood and made me very easy to cry when I never cried before taking the pill. I was wondering if this is normal. Or if there is anything I can do to lessen this side effect? I am all ready on a low-dose version of the pill, Alesse. I am open to options as this side effect is making me feel like a different person lately.
Thank you for your help. This board is a great resource for me.

It is definitely possible that your pill has caused your mood instability!
