I've decided to respond to my hormones by drawing the lyrics to songs but badly
Period Crap
right now I'm drawing "Saint Bernard"
group
What are period cramps.. (inside joke since I don't get them)
I usually don’t get period cramps but oh boy this month is an exception
I woke up three times last night because of the pain
group
Next month try taking Advil at night for about a week before you get your period.
I don’t think we have any
I just have to stick with ibuprofen, a heating pad that I can never get to because my sister hoards it, and my mom’s essential oil blend specifically for cramps that doesn’t actually work and just makes me smell bad
group
Essential Oils are a pyramid scheme
I don’t hate all her oils, some of them smell good, others are delicious, but my gosh they really aren’t as miraculous as she thinks
…
Well you’re not wrong
group
The peppermint one smells good but it burns when I put it on my skin.
Well yeah, it’s a spicy oil, don’t put it on your flesh
also peppermint really doesn’t smell good
I like the grapefruit one. It’s nice. Same with the Christmas and stress relief blends. Everything else can go away, especially the soap, I hate the soap so much
group
Grapefruit is the best essential oil and no one can change my mind.
I won’t try to cause I agree
I always learned that if you take too many painkillers you build up an immunity
my friend taught me some trick where you basically lightly tap the place where it hurts the most and keep (lightly) tapping in an outward spiral motion and she says that always helps with her cramps
im on my second period of the month cause of birth control, ugh!
group
can't relate but I imagine it's pretty bad
it is
My period started early again during school and it sucks.
And then I had to go to a WEB leader meeting thing after-school when I just wanted to go homeeee
I just found a life saver last cycle and im sharing it here for ya'll cause i just saw this, target has an off brand med called "menstrual relief" acetaminophen, I got it and only took half doses and its a miracle for cramps. The only side affect for me is drowsiness a little earlier in the evening than normal. Def something to check out if you can swallow pills, it was much better than ibprofen for me.
*always fact check your meds tho, make sure it's okay for you to take anything
Never thought I'd say this, but my period came at the perfect time
(Shuffles in quietly)
(Mine did not…^)
I mean, It still sucked, But it is better to bleed in yoga pants and a hoodie rather than a $150 choir dress
Ooooh yeah that is lucky.
and its before finals so less pain there
Man- I don't think I've ever been so lucky. I got mine literally the day of a play production. I'm not even kidding. The. Day. Of. So I wasn't allowed to leave backstage and I was stuck there for like 2 hours…
oof, I know I've been there. I wasn't on stage, but I was backstage doing makeup and props so always moving and I couldn't leave
That was literally me- I couldn't leave either! And then we had it two nights- so we did it all again, and afterwards had to clean up EVERYTHING and then went out for a celebratory iHop raid until like 1 am…
