I have tried every form of birth control I can get my hands on. I just got the Mirena IUD and it made me spot and gave me HORRIFIC cramps. Worse than my endo pains. I was having full on contractions, unable to sleep, too nauseous to eat. No doctor would see me. My mom threatened to pull it out herself, and all of a sudden, they magically had time for me!

I wanted to go in alone so my mom didn’t see me bust it open for a doctor but I really wish I had brought her back with me. The doctor said “so you’ve been having a little bit of discomfort?” BABE. I PHYSICALLY COULD NOT WALK. Plus she wouldn’t give me a straight answer for anything. I asked if this pain was normal and she did everything she could to dance around the answer. I tried asking what my options were but she kept answering my question by asking if I wanted it removed. Eventually, I just said yes.

So she did, and she just shoved some giant sharp metal thing inside me without lube. I told her it hurt but she just apologized and kept going. Gave me no time to adjust. When she reached inside with some scary scissor things, she made some sounds like she was confused or surprised, but gave no explanation when I asked if something was wrong. She also audio recorded our entire appointment. I wouldn’t have minded BUT SHE DIDN’T EVEN ASK. She also told me absolutely nothing about the aftercare and what to expect after removal. I just hobbled out of the exam room and cried my eyes out in the car. I‘m not having contractions anymore but I’m still cramping and now I’m bleeding HEAVILY.

No Doctor would see me, and then when I finally got one, she refused to communicate and made me feel a bit uncomfortable. It feels like my only option is to get my tubes tied but I don’t want to do that when I’m only 18. It would break my boyfriend’s heart too. It feels like I’m just doomed to suffer.

I’m crying in the backseat of my mom’s car feeling sick to my stomach because it’s so bad. I can feel a sharp pain from my bellybutton to my clit. I got mine inserted about 2 weeks ago. When will this torture end?

Ngl I was a pip user even before roar and such were removed, just because I liked how descriptive it was. But now EVERY reply is so long I don’t even want to read it. It takes up my whole screen and more— and cuts off mid-sentence EVERY TIME. Not to mention, every swipe generates the same reply. That was a problem before but now I feel it has become even worse.

I’ve tried the mirroring method with absolutely no success, and giving the message a thumbs down and saying “too long” does nothing. What else can I do?
