bumbling about

69

so today i'm here to talk about quite a hushed subject - periods.

and yes, i know this isn't 100% relatable because even though the majority of everyone who reads my shitty books are girls not all girls experience periods. some guys even experience periods.

but it doesnt matter what gender you are: periods suck. and you dont have to be a girl to know that.

theres this tumblr post and it goes like
'*me on my period*: oh i just dropped a spoon time to cry' and its one of the only posts i will always reblog.

i don't even know how i am on my period, i always crave sweet foods and sometimes my cramps are so bad i can barely walk. some days my mood is completely normal and other days i can go from crying over puppies to screaming over dropping my phone on my face again in .00007 seconds.

the test i put myself through to know whether my period is starting or not is watching the music video for photograph by ed sheeran. if i keep my shit together, im good but if i cry, goddamn it i'm in for a shit week.

not to mention my fucking headaches. i-i-i-i've got a migraINE EVERY FUCKING DAY. its so awful, and my mum is always like 'its because you dont drink enough water!' no mother. it is because my uterus hates me.

the only thing i do during my period is watch dan and phil while in the foetal position with a hot water bottle at my hips. dan and phil always make my day better.

so tell me, do you have any strange coping mechanisms? and is it strange that i have just put this out into the internet? i dont think so, its a part of human nature. a really shit part of human nature. i'm probably going to end marrying a woman anyway. sigh.
