I don't know about you guys but there's a certain time of month when I just want to lock the world away, eat a vat load of chocolate, and ugly cry! My periods have affected my emotional and physical health since they started and whilst my doctor has me on medications to make them a less "damaging" experience. I still have the same issues as the majority of us. :'(
Luckily I have turned myself into a Organisation Queen! Whilst I cant make the experience enjoyable, I am now well prepared and I fully recommend setting up your own survival kit! Here's mine;
- Firstly and most importantly Tampons/sanitary towels!! - Always check a week in advance that you have enough nothing worse than being caught without!!
- Painkillers - because lets face it your inside ripping off and bleeding out of you isn't that much fun, natural or not..
- Green Tea - Not only does this make you feel less bloated (Because feeling like a whale is another perk of being a woman) but the heat can help relieve cramps along with...
- Hot water bottle/heat pack (Picture below) - for when I just cant get off the sofa
- Comfy socks & tracksuit bottoms for when your at home - comfort is everything
- And Chocolate!!! - Because I don't care what my body supposedly needs instead, I want chocolate and I'm eating it!
What would you guys have in your kit? Have you got any advice for someone whose struggling? Comments below :D xx
