- Wow. Still on my period. How long’s it been?
- My periods are so irregular. I can’t remember the last time I had a period, and I can’t remember when this one started.
- Okay. February 1st, I know it’s been at least that long because that’s the day I ordered my first menstrual cup, and I was bleeding that day.
- Thank fucking fuck for my menstrual cup.
- How could I live without it? I don’t think I could. Not bleeding for this long.
- Welp, gonna go ahead and order myself some THINX underwear while I’m at it, since I’m apparently going to bleed to death.
- Period underwear are legit.
- Maybe my period is almost over!
- Nope. I am now bleeding more than I was yesterday.
- I think I’m gonna start a fight with my husband today. I think I’m gonna fight with everyone today.
- Is this PMS, my anxiety, depression, or a mix of all three?
- I can’t stop crying so I’m just going to have another glass of wine.
- Well, guess I’ll re-download the Clue app so that I can actually start tracking my long af period.
- Is this safe? Is this normal?
- Why did I ever get an implant.
- Why couldn’t I just stick with the pill.
- Well fuck you too, uterus.
- All right, I’ve been bleeding for just over a month. Can this stop now?
- I’ve been bleeding for 40 days. Am I dead yet?
- Am I even a person?
- I’m bloated af.
- Pretty sure I gained a few more pounds.
- Oh good, another pimple.
- Why do people with vaginas bleed.
- Why is my vagina still bleeding.
- I should go to the gynecologist.
- My gynecologist is pretty awesome.
- But it won’t do any good to see the gyne. She’ll probably tell me what I already know. Excessive bleeding/spotting and irregular periods are typical of implants.
- BUT FFF@#%($aD*ASD$$%03-#?!!!?!
- Day 43 of being on my period. I’m alive.
- At least I’m not pregnant.
- I’m gonna cut 14 inches off my hair!
- At least I’m healthy and using a secure form of birth control.
- I’m gonna drink ALL THE WINE!
- At least I’m still feelin’ fly as fuck, even when going on day 44.
