I Am Currently Waiting To See The Gynae In 2

I am currently waiting to see the gynae in 2 months time but I'm really struggling on my current pill and wanted to ask your advice.
I've been on Qlaira for a year now and besides not having bled for 9 months, in the last two months the side effects have been quite intense. Breast swelling and severe tenderness throughout the cycle, emotions all over the place, bad skin again, feeling very hormonal and unbalanced, weight gain, water retention.
Yasmin did wonders for my skin but it killed my Libido and increased depression. I'm feeling more and more like I need to get off the Qlaira immediately but I don't know what the other options are and I feel like I can't wait 2 months to see the gynae.
Is it a bad idea to go off until I can see the doctor? Or is there another pill I should try?
