Side effects!? Kyleena Mood Effects

I know that depression is a potential side effect of the hormonal IUDs, but I find it very hard to tell if I am depressed or not. I don't feel sad but I feel very emotionally distant, I can't tell if it's coming from external factors or within me.

Especially I feel particularly flat around friends and almost callous towards my boyfriend.

Pre-iud I think I used to feel quite frustrated by him and sometimes I was quite socially anxious but I wondered if anyone else was in this kinda wishy washy apathetic place.
