My cycle and pain were not always associated. My cramps were not particularly heavy during my younger years, but got significantly worse when I was 16 or so. Sadly it was just a preview of what was to come as every year after that they would get worse. The physical pain was absolutely terrible, a gnawing at your insides which was so horrid. However, there is also this deep mental pain that comes alongside knowing your period is coming. There is a pain in knowing you are going to need to shut down your life for a few days until you balance out again.
I started learning that cramps were not ‘just the way it is’ and that the pill is not the only solution to period pain.
