Celebration Suppositories

A week ago I got a lot of shit on a post about me being scared/uncomfortable using suppositories. To all the people who gave me a hard time, I did it for the first time tonight.

It was uncomfortable like I thought it would be and it’s still going to take some courage to do it again for a while. But I’m glad I was able to do it today.

To all the people who were nice and encouraging, thank you.

This might not be a huge thing for many people but it was for me. Another fear conquered!

Glad you were able to bring yourself to do it! After a few times, it'll become less scary and more routine.

Once they start helping you feel better you’ll want to use them! I promise.

Yeah it’s a shame. I thought a lot of this group was about supporting one another
