Hi, I Have Been On The Pill Since I Was

Hi,
I have been on the pill since i was 16 starting with microgynon until i was 22 then moving onto cerazette. Ive always suffered with anxiety since around age 17 but it got much worse and accompanied by depression about 6 months after i started cerazette as well as complete loss of sex drive. Ive managed ok though there have been many ups and downs but i after a discussion with my gp we decided it would be best to go pill free as ive never not been on the pill in my adult life. I'm 2 weeks off now and it's been rocky. I've felt nauseaous, had headaches, bloating, tearfulness and a huge increase in anxiety and low mood. The Dr told me to expect this I'm just wondering how long it will be until my body starts behaving normally?
