@rot-baby-rot!

What are period cramps.. (inside joke since I don't get them)

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

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

Next month try taking Advil at night for about a week before you get your period.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

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

Essential Oils are a pyramid scheme

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

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

Tis a CULT I say. A CULT

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

The peppermint one smells good but it burns when I put it on my skin.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

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

Grapefruit is the best essential oil and no one can change my mind.

@The-N-U-T-Cracker

I won’t try to cause I agree

@Pickles group

Huh. I have to see if my mom has that one

@rot-baby-rot!

I always learned that if you take too many painkillers you build up an immunity

@rot-baby-rot!

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
@The-Magician group

can't relate but I imagine it's pretty bad

shadowworld666

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

@Musical_Queen

Never thought I'd say this, but my period came at the perfect time

group

(Shuffles in quietly)
(Mine did not…^)

@Musical_Queen

I mean, It still sucked, But it is better to bleed in yoga pants and a hoodie rather than a $150 choir dress

group

Ooooh yeah that is lucky.

@Musical_Queen

and its before finals so less pain there

group

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…

@Musical_Queen

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

group

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…
