Some person: don’t look at screens before bed!!!! It messes up sleeping!!11!1 because there’s light in there that tricks the brain into thinking it’s daytime!!
Me, upon seeing sunlight and feeling a sunbeam land on my skin and immediately becoming extremely sleepy like a reptile living in the desert: sounds fake but ok.
-When I told the army doctor that sometimes my period pains make me unable to function for days, he didn’t even write that down. -When I told my dad “don’t touch me, I’m in pain” he backed down for a moment until my mom told him “she’s on her period”. Then he just laughed. -When I told my teacher before a big test that I was unable to do it because I was in extreme pain and could barely move at all, she said I was making up excuses and that it wasn’t a real reason not to do the test. -Wenever I tell someone about how different I feel during my period emotionally they say I’m just “making up drama”.
We need to start treating people on their periods like actual human beings in pain.
-The fact that it occurs monthly doesn’t make the pain less real. It should be treated seriously and with respect. -The fact that the hormones effect the emotions doesn’t make your sadness less painful or the anger less valid or that terrible feeling of being lost less terrifying. Guess what? Hormones affect everyone. Feelings aren’t always rational. It should be also treated seriously and with respect.
Please stop mocking people with periods. Please stop dismissing us. Please stop violating our boundries. Please respect people with periods.
Hey op, I agree but also if you’re having extreme pain that is stopping you from working with your period that popping a pain killer doesn’t fix you really should find a doctor (that listens to you) because its more often than not a underlying condition because actually??? Our periods aren’t supposed to hurt so much it puts you out of commission.
Mine did it to me, thought it was “normal” until I was told it wasn’t and i had POCS. Please get checked if you have extreme period pain!
Almost all periods hurt at least a little sometimes but assuming it’s the same exact level of pain for all menstruaters is such a harmful myth. It causes adult women who have had periods nearly their whole lives to callously dismiss the debilitating pain of girls with various medical conditions, for one thing.
Yeah exactly like if an advil isnt releiving your pain and its so bad you cant function thats not normal pain and you should see a doctor.
Soccer moms who constantly joke about how they need a glass of wine/how much wine they drank last night are the same brand of obnoxious as stoners who only talk about smoking
ladies don’t forget to fill up your water bottle and put it in the fridge before you go to bed tonight so you can have a drink as soon as you wake up tomorrow. men you can die i guess
