the period project

rant eighty-five: give me a break

@lethargy 

I'm just gonna hit everything at once, RIGHT IN THE FACE IF I COULD BUT YOU KNOW PERIODS DONT HAVE FAces

Okay first of all my face just decides it's gonna be all acne-fied and fantabulous.

Honestly, WHY MUST THE ACNE COME

Then, the lazy days. Like gee, I was tryna be productive today and then I fucking get my period and BAM, REACHING FOR MY PHONE IS TOO MUCH WORK.

Not to mention the cramps, which are worse than all hell for me. But you know what makes me feel better? When I sit in an extremely weird way that somehow magically provides relief to my uterus. Then my mom comes in and looks at me and I'm just like GIVE ME A BREAK IM ON MY PERIOD

The emotions and cravings. (Why put this in the same paragraph?) well Idefk about you but when I'm on my period I get the worst cravings, not only for food, but for movies and ish too. So I'll be like OH my GaWD I wanna watch the Blind Side for the trillionth time and then the fucking scene where he said he ain't never had a bed before just gets to me and then EMOTIONS are like STAHP THATS TOO SAD OPEN THE FLOODGATES and next thing I know I'm curled up in a corner crying with an even worse headache coming.

Speaking of the floodgates: HEAVY FLOWS ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST. WHY DO YOU HAVE THIS MUCH BLOOD TO SHED, UTERUS? WERE YOU SAVING UP ENOUGH BLOOD FOR 5 BABIES?!

Come on...CAN I GET A BREAK?
