POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Using “woman” as the only descriptor for a menstruating body explicitly isn’t at all representative of the many identities a menstruating person may identify with, and does a massive disservice towards making menstrual health approachable and accessible

As we build this space together, I want to be mindful of how I show up in these conversations and the natural bias I have towards womanhood, because of my own identity.

I can speak from my experience while also committing to making space for all experiences

Love you hard ❤️‍🔥

There is hope in seeing that new corners are being explored; the more I learn, the more confident I feel asking my doctor questions and advocating for myself E V E R Y W H E R E.

This account has been so meaningful to me because my feed surfaces so much interesting information about PMDD that I’m so eager to dive into and digest and get my lil grubby fingers on ❤️‍🔥

Being informed helps us advocate for ourselves and each other!!!! Shared experiences help bridge connections!!!

I don’t know. I don’t know really anything at all. But, I do know that preparation is preventative - stashing your comfort items before the wall comes crashing down makes for a much easier return.

Don’t forget to take care of yourself amidst **looks around** all of this ❤️‍🔥

shhhhhh the moon has something to say!! ❤️‍🔥🌜🌛

Thinking about how the moon and I get to two-step while moving through this life and every cycle makes me feel ~ held ~ by the moon and all of the moon mothers before me

My niece and nephew call my mom, who passed in ‘07, “moon mama” and moon mama keeps me grounded in the motion of nature ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🫂

It’s only fitting that I saw Hayley Williams tonight and had an out of body experience, then ordered chicken tenders and thought about pmdd & adhd ❤️‍🔥

The co-occurrence here is especially brutal when you’re also not getting enough sunlight, so it’s time to start taking those vitamins hunnies for the winter!!!!! (I know I’m sorry!!!)

What does recovery look like for you when you come out of your luteal, or when the bleeding stops?

For some, PMDD symptoms lessen once the period starts - I find that to be true most times, but my body hurts in other ways when I’m bleeding. I get severe sinus congestion, I have painful cramps, my emotional self is trying to regulate while my physical self is still at war.

This time - this post-period flow - deserves space, rest, clean sheets, good foods. I wanna know how you honor yourself!!!!!! ❤️‍🔥

P.S. there are grammar mistakes in this post and I’m irked but could not be bothered to correct!!!! 🫶

PMDD but make it mythbusters ❤️‍🔥

It took me a long time to work through my cycle NOT being related to a hormonal imbalance, it’s so exciting to see information about PMDD become surfaced more quickly as we start researching our bodies ❤️‍🔥

This isn’t meant to feel doom-scrolly. This is meant to - I hope - remind us all that sharing how PMDD is being referenced in studies, etc., and how PMDD impacts our daily lives is so vital to the success of ALL of us.

Finding answers is not easy, and finding the place to even ASK the question to get the answer is its own battle. So, we’re here to hold space for one another - validate that you are NOT alone, that it’s not straightforward, that your experience deserves curiosity.

Love ya, mean it ❤️

Put your records on hunny, you CRUSHED this week!!!

Some reminders heading into the weekend (especially if you’re in a luteal h*llscape):

- Expectations are fool’s gold
- Rest is just as productive as work
- If you feel the self-hatred lizard voice, try to move your body (or your hands or your neck, whatever feels right!!)
