I have:

  • joint
  • youtube
  • back/side/hair tickles from bf
  • lavender incense
  • instant ramen for days
  • plush toys
  • green tea for days
  • hot water bottle sometimes
  • specifically blue slush (shaved ice for you psychopaths)

🎵 These are some of my favourite things 🎶

And then a hot bath or shower if the headaches happens. Oh and cover all the mirrors in the house.

But like mine have been so irregular the last couple of months and I don't bleed so it's so hard to know if I'm finally going insane or whoops just my period I'm fine 🙃

Erghhhhhhh last month I ate 4 times what I have in a day in the space of an hour distress

Ergghgggygygkfkwjdhwjdjwkdkwksnznsnz help meeeeee I'm meant to be losing weight asagiri

Ngl one of the perks of transitioning was that testosterone effectively cured my endometriosis, can't have pain if you can't have periods

Omfg dude that's sick! HRT keep winning meow-hug

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

mefanemic acid is available on prescription and works better than ibuprofen.

I'm getting gf a TENS machine for Christmas in hopes that helps too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

rat-salute it does thank you 😊

[–] [email protected] 2 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

for my partner, they take kratom for the first day or two. PCOS so the cramping is unreal they have passed out before from them owie

[–] [email protected] 1 points 18 hours ago

Omfg I hope they are better with the meds jesus christ.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago (4 children)

im physically attached to this heating pad, i also cannot stop eating i feel like a black hole, i fucked up and got myself cookie butter. weed and ibuprofen help. also put on sad music to get the emotions out at the beginning of the day, im actully about to walk to the ocean and dramatically cry by the seaside listening to mitski.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

I made a hexbear account. That's how bad this one is omori-miserable

I need to get one of those cuddley microwaveable warm plushes. I saw a penguin one and I neeeeed it.

I get back into specifically Remembering Sunday every time like I go back to dorky emo girl every month. Like no other songs, just that one lol

Omg don't the very idea of that is sending me. I want to gather shells now 😪 Romantic or bitter sweet anime youtube short edits send me into bits as well and i dont even watch anime anymore. I don't even go looking for them, I lingered too long one time I recognised one I'd seen back in school and now the algorithm suffocates me with them and i always cry and now I'm getting invested in characters and ships I don't even know. Why YouTube. Fuck off.

oh noooooo, welcome aboard lmao

extremely cute although i prefer the plug in ones because im lazy. hmmmm maybe you need something even stronger, sometimes the only way out of a sob spell is through!! im prescribing the saddest sapphic movie you can find, a cup of herbal tea, and then a brisk walk/stretch. also you gotta start reading fanfics of the ships you dont even know, im sorry thats law.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (8 children)

I know it's terminal i thought I'd became a cool grass toucher and everything sanji-pain

You can get those? Erghhh that would make my lazy ways easier. My adhd has me listening to a rotation of true crime, serial killers, cave diving deaths, mountaineering disasters, reading about tarot and youtuber drama. I'm too far gone this month.

Nooooo who the fuck is alya anyway and why does she hide her feelings in Russian? I'm like girl, get a grip and tell him or lose him to the sister who loves checks notes incest movies? Wait what?! This is all I've gotten of the plot so far and it's wild. I do not want to see where the fanfiction goes.

  • short celebration that I'm not pregnant
  • ibuprofen
  • get away from other people asap
  • cranberry juice
  • binge-eating during the first 24 hours so that I can't feel the cramps as much, especially dessert
  • try to distract myself the best I can with video games
  • hot showers and ice-cold drinks
  • just not giving a fuck about body maintenance for the next 3-4 days
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

My biggest mistake is going overboard with body maintenance in some kinda sad attempt to offset the self hate when I should just goblin mode for the week. I just don't wanna have to deal with the office while also looking and feeling like death.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Goblin mode is great, I catch up on body maintenance on like day 4-5 when the period has subsided to random ketchup squirts. Let the hair grow and the zits form, fuck it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago

Greasy ass hair with a gappy fringe i hate it eviscerated

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Heating pad

Midol

Happy things like chocolate or painting minis

No stress

Guess what four things I haven’t had the last four days.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We cope, that's what we do. I hate it. Hoping you get at least 1 of the 4 soon timmy-pray

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I hope it just ends soon. Today's day 4 so it should finish soon. Should. Hopefully you find your answers cause PMS is a bitch.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I’ll get by. I’ve been having these for a long time now. Probably will never get used to it, but that’s the price I pay for being me. meow-hug

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

I'd just like a bit more consistency with mine but my routine does not help.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Currently enjoying this too. My cycle is so short I feel like I am bleeding all the time. And it is so heavy, I hate working on these days so much.

Can't wait to grow old enough for this to stop. So over it.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I really can't complain, my little sister gets them so much worse it's like agony-deep

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I usually vanish into the void and come back when it’s over… not the greatest strategy maybe idk :( I’ll kill my womb some day for its treachery

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Omg is this the "living as a duvet for a week" mood? I haven't got out of bed today yet

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s the staying in bed while dissociating to a point where you don’t feel alive anymore mood 😎

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Throw in a cheeky splash of cluster b gang and it's just days of waiting for everyone to abandon me life.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't get it? Use other punctuation?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't follow sorry 😐 did you want more full stops?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm sorry, but I can't tell if you're playing into the bit or not

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Wait this was a bit? dafoe-horror i was just confused and trying to be polite distress

Edit: just in case .............................

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

In the US/Canada "full stops" are also called "periods" 😭

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Oh bocchi-cry do I need to delete my account now? I can't come back from this.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

just take a rest period and you'll be fine

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Mood

I swear I just become consumption. I want to be filled and I'm not bothered how.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (4 children)

i know this sounds insane but my solution for cramps is to lie down with heavy things on my stomach. i swear it moves things along cowboy-cri

My gf just went though the same thing last week, sounds fucking awful. She just drinks / smokes weed, so not much I can say to help, sorry!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

meow-hug

She's a trooper, I can't drink when I'm on, it just makes me cry more somehow.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My girlfriend always has some blackcurrant juice when she’s on her period. You might want to thin it out with some sparkling water, though.
