how do you deal with that time of the month which i like to refer to as Putting up with Men's Shit? He calls it Pass My Shotgun. my lower abdomen cramps... my head aches... i am hyper-sensitive... i feel like either crying or screaming. what i'd like to know is this. as a submissive who does not have the 'luxury' of throwing tantrums (oh yes, i can throw a good one), how do you stop from going mad? any words of sympathy wouldn't go astray either. gypsy-fkn-lee xxx Well, I'll offer up some sympathy as the first order of business. In addition to PMS I have the wonderful 'extra' of endometriosis to go along with it, so I can totally relate. It's the sort of pain that really goes beyond a descriptive reference. The closest I can describe it to a man is to hack off their balls, then jump up and down on them while they still feel the pain of having their balls hacked off. Then double that. That's probably pretty close. ;) The first step was informing Himself that I had endo when we first met and ask him to read up on it so he would know exactly what he was getting. That helped. Then, the first time he saw me have an attack which dropped me to my knees, well.. that really helped. He not only allows me to take care of my medical needs, he insists on it. (Whoever invented the heating pad needs to be Knighted!) Hot soaks in tubs, having an incredible Master, being allowed to cry when I need to and being hugged a hell of a lot whenever I ask during those times rather alleviates any need to pull out the 30 aught six and going gunning for my ex. (Like I need a reason to do that anyway!) Bottom line (no pun intended) half the battle is won because I have Himself firmly on my side .. the other half is won because of my own awareness of what goes on inside the body, knowing my cycle, knowing the possibities and taking steps before the whole thing starts to lessen the effect it has on me. Ain't perfect, but so far I've only killed two people, so that's not so bad for being alive so long, don't ya think? I wish you wellness and good health.. Celeste
