not only do i get the normal terribleness of a period, but the hormonal fluctuations mess with my entire body. i get incredibly sick, have fainting spells, get dizzy, hyper and hypoglycemic, nauseous and am overall incredibly weak. my entire body is basically out of commission for 4-7 days every month. i don’t know anyone else who truly understands this and it’s very isolating.
