(((thinker)))
i've had superlong periods before, and they are completely draining (eww, eww - no pun intended


). both physically and emotionally. for me, it was triggered by emotional stuff (my cycle always goes crazy when i get stressed - either stop altogether for months, or goes into overdrive) - i've never been on the pill.
but i hope your gyn can help you out - it does sound like something that needs to be looked at quite seriously. don't underestimate the emotional toll it will take on you, too.
