How long should one be on the birth control pill before it is unhealthy?

I have been on the pill for 9 years. I am told that it is unhealthy and I should take a break... Is this true?

Nah. I was on it longer than that. They say when you get to be about 35-40 yrs old you should stop, because of the possibility of blood clots in that age group.
