Don't talk to me about the damn PMS stuff either! I have been crying over everything! Man! I cried watching Americas Got Talent earlier and I don't even watch that stupid show. lol
I am in a weird state. That's for sure.

Yeah, that's how it works lol. I finally had mine just a few days after my exam. Weird how the body/mind works. Smh. I still say get checked though.
As for the pain, I don't generally do meds but I used to take Womens Midol when I reaaaally need it. Now, however, I take the natural approach and use a substance called NatuRelief for Women (got it from local pharmacy). It's made of roots and what not, but mostly pineapple enzymes. I think it's pretty cheap (my box has lasted for many months but I don't have my cycle that often) and worth trying. I usually take one when I know my cycle is coming and two more throughout the day before they get bad. I still get cramps but they're very manageable. Perhaps you could try some, i'll try to attach a pic.
