Like many, many women, I have a period. And with this period, there are consequences. I become even more of an #emotionalcreature (I'm highly emotional without it). It is like a little monster is inside my brain and my heart telling me to do things that don't usually make sense. Another little monster is downstairs punching my ovaries. And when these monsters are renting out space, I tend to cry and scream. A lot.
Sorry, Mom. Sorry, boyfriend. Sorry, car that cut me off.
So this week it happened. And in typical fashion, I got a little more worked up than usual. Sometimes, I think my period follows the same rule as "drunk words, sober thoughts." It helps me get out those feelings I suppress the rest of the month, and it shows me all the crazy things I care about. Thanks, period. But no thanks for the fatigue, cramps, and cravings.
So, here are 20 things I cried about during my period week.
I'm sure there were more. I don't think I have any tears left.
