If you have been using your birth control pills consistently and correctly (taking one every day, at about the same time), the spotting you are experiencing is most likely breakthrough bleeding. Breakthrough bleeding is simply bleeding in-between periods, and is very common (it is more common for women using hormonal contraception, actually!).
Your other symptoms are most likely stress-related, and you may want to talk with your gynecologist if your period continues to be irregular (there are other types of birth control pills you can use, to help regulate your period).
