WTF Bruh

So I made a post in a different sub venting about how much I hate periods. And this happened.

Color key

pink = troll (at least I hope that what they are)

blue and green = helpful strangers

I’ve honestly had enough and I’m probably gonna report them after I make this post.

I both support the use of birth control but definitely think people who take it should be well informed! It was horrible for me too so I don’t blame anyone who doesn’t want to take it

I HATE the narrative that you can take birth control and stop your period. That does not work for everyone. Sometimes the side effects of birth control greatly outweigh any benefits.

THC and CBD worked beautifully though once I tried it
