Dear Uterus, We Need to Talk
<p>Can we PLEASE talk about period cramps? Because what exactly did my uterus do to deserve this level of violence?!</p><p>One minute I’m minding my business, living my life, and the next minute my lower abdomen decides it’s hosting the World War III Championships. I’m curled up in bed, clutching my stomach like I’ve been personally betrayed by my own organs.</p><p>And people will be like, “Oh, it’s just cramps.”<br/></p><p>JUST cramps?!<br/></p><p>The people that say that piss me off. Especially the girls who don’t experience it and then they try to downplay the pain the ones who experience it feel. What happened to being a girl’s girl??</p><p>If someone punched you repeatedly in the stomach for hours, nobody would call that “just” anything! Meanwhile, I’m expected to carry on with my day like my uterus isn’t currently trying to fold me into a human question mark.</p><p>The back pain. The nausea. The diarrhea. The exhaustion. The mood swings. The random urge to cry or lash out because someone breathed too loudly. Let’s not forget the butthole cramps, the absolute worst! If you don’t go through that, you’re soooo lucky. </p><p>And somehow, after surviving all of that, I’m supposed to smile and say, “I’m fine.”</p><p>No. I am not fine.</p><p>I am fighting for my life against an organ that apparently has a monthly personal vendetta against me.<br/></p><p>And then when you’re at home fighting for your life, your name keeps getting called. Excuse me, I can barely stand!😭</p><p>They say you’re giving excuses though, so you have to force yourself to get up. Sometimes, in tears.</p><p>At this point, I don’t want an apology from my uterus. I want compensation. I should be paid for this honestly<br/></p><p>It’s been years but I can’t get used to this pain. Some months are more painful than others. </p><p>I think I’ll just end my rant here.</p><p><br/></p>
