Ughghhgh;oashd;fklas;df.
So this WILL be TMI for a lot of you. So if you can't be an adult and deal with real life, skip over this entry please. You know me, I'm kind of crass and blunt sometimes.
I forgot to take my meds (aka birth control) for 5 days. Well, 4 days, and then I didn't take it on purpose on the 5th day. I didn't expect anything weird. I figured I'd just wait and pick it back up on the day I left off.
Then, all hell broke loose.
First, it started with spotting. (Spotting = having a light period when you aren't supposed to be having one.) I was like, yuck, but ok. I can deal. I'll just deal with this for a few days and then go along with the plan.
Then, last night, it went from spotting to full-blown anguish. Twice as bad as my normal periods. I am in massive pain, and I rarely get cramps. It's bad. And what makes it worse is that I JUST HAD MY PERIOD A LITTLE OVER A WEEK AGO.
So, yeah. THIS SUCKS.
So I decided to change my plans, and just throw away those 4 pills and start with yesterday's this morning, and today's tonight. And HOPEFULLY the hormones will zap something in gear and MAKE THE MADNESS STOP.
Otherwise, I have a feeling I will be physically miserable for a few days. Luckily the emotional side seems to have stopped. I'm guessing that the issues with me being SO over-the-top dramatic with Trav and such could've been a direct result of this issue, as it was the first day I forgot to take the meds.
So bear with me, kids. Hopefully I'll make it through this without any casualties.
