Yes, I heard that really helps!
god i hate having period pain god its the worst pain ever :p x.x.x.x
Nothing works on mine :(
Just talking to Abbie :p. Which reminded me..
But sometimes I get really bad period pains in college. Like I feel like I'm going to faint and be sick etc, so I have to sit down take loads of painkillers. But sometimes I have no money and can't buy them, and it catches you off guard sometimes, so what would some people suggest for those times when you aren't prepared? Like in College or at work?? Cause it really is THAT bad sometimes!
I try to carry paraceatemol with me at all times now, just in case, but I can't afford them now, and don't want to ask my mum to get some.
SO far today I tried hot bath which worked whilst I was in the bath
Painkillers- no effect
Hot water bottle- nice but no effect
Just sitting and resting- I cant get comfortable
This is going to sound odd :p But if I'm in bed and can't be bothered to get painkillers, I lie on my back and pat my stomach. That sometimes helps.
Try curling up with your legs clost to your head.
And this will sound weird too :lol:. Gently pinch your arm.. not too hard.. or your head.. or somewhere higher than your stomach.. as I don't know why, but that helps me sometimes too.
Lol earlier tdoday I did rub my stomach that didnt have much effect but when I nearly fell asleep curled up like you said it did
Ive said this in the shoutbox, but I'll share my wisdom with you all in this thread! :D
1) Run up and downstairs, go on a trampoline, or do other exercise.
2) Take as many pain killers as possible.
3) Take evening primrose oil capules
4) Get someone to knock you out with a mallet (this is a joke and not really adviseable).
5) Watch some trashy TV or listen to some really cool music...to try and take your mind off the hell you are going through...
Yeah I did take my mind off it earlier but when its constant pain all day its very hard
