#but also the pain and discomfort and shitty moods are v real

[nicistrying]

This period is kicking my ass 😭 tried to do a little exercise this morning - literally some squats and grasshoppers, a few crunches. Stood up and felt so much worse than before I started 😂 Cried at the thought of coming to work. Now at work and very much ready to cry again. No appetite so just drinking coffee hoping it will keep me going until my break, back and hip pain as well as stomach cramps. And now I get to essentially lift weights for 9 hours 😂😂
