Ty for replying. I’m 17 so yes I’ve been dealing with it for quite some time. That’s why I don’t understand why I still feel so anxious over it.Hello chri, welcome to the forum first of all. We are happy to have you here.
Now, fair disclaimer, I may not be entirely able to relate to your situation, as I am a male and do not experience periods. But based on previous interactions with my friends who are females, they get anxious about their periods too. Specifically, they get anxious about how it is going to go, how it is going to make them feel, if it is going to be painful at all, etc. It does not surprise me that you are having anxiety about it. If you don't mind me asking, how old are you? I would assume periods are not foreign to you at all and that they quickly became a regular part of your life, but just want to get an idea.
I'll let the females take over now with the rest of the responses, but I hope you find some comfort in my post to you
Gotcha, I'm 18, so I can relate more on that end of everything.
