Mirena and mental health

i got Mirena inserted at the end of june, and today i started feeling very weird. I did not sleep well, i am tired all the time, brain fog and i don't feel like doing anything. I take escitalopram to ocd/anxiety, just so you know. Could all that be from the mirena or is all of these just post period symptoms? I've tried different types of birth control pills before, they have had me like a monster, now i'm afraid that this iud will do the same to me. I just need some support from some people who have the same situation.

Escitalopram

Hey!! I just started mine couple of days ago, i've been taking 5mg so half of 10mg. My first medication ever, for anxiety and overthinking etc. I am feeling awful. I feel like i'm out of this world and nothing is real. Nausea and hunger the same time, so i can't physically eat. Trouble sleeping and my wrists ache so much. PLEASE tell me this gets better.
