Hi! I've been looking into switching from pads to period underwear or cloth pads but I don't really know a whole lot about either one. I mainly want to avoid the cold wet feeling that I know comes with using these products. I'd love to hear any thoughts or opinions on what brands and materials I should be looking at. For context, my period is usually 4 days long with a moderate flow on days 2 and 3. It's not super heavy by any means.

Brands I've been looking into: Modibodi, saalt, Knix, Thinx

Any thoughts and comments are appreciated. I'd love to know what it's like using these types of products as opposed to disposable ones.

Hi everyone. Recently I've been thinking about switching from regular pads to period underwear or reusable cloth pads. My period only lasts for about 4 days, so I think I can make the switch. The main thing is that I want to avoid the cold wet feeling as much as possible. I already get that somewhat with regular pads, so the feeling isn't a surprise, but it typically goes away after a short while.

Anyway, I'm looking for thoughts/opinions on what brands I should look at and what's worked best for any of you. I've been looking at Modbodi, Thinx, Knix, and saalt so far. Saalt is currently the favorite, but I don't want to buy anything without considering every factor from each brand. I don't know much about cloth pads, but I'm all ears. Let me know :)

I'm 20 years old and just finished my second year of film school. The problem is, I'm not sure that I want to go back in the fall. Going to school never really fulfilled me. I feel sort of "meh" about it. I don't adore college like every other kid my age seems to. I wouldn't say I absolutely hate it, but I feel I don't even like it as much as I should. I only have a few friends and my days consist of going to class and then going right back to my apartment. I went out to parties twice this year and was an anxious mess the entire time. I always left after an hour or two. Point is, I don't think I'd miss it if I didn't go back.

How did any of you know that school wasn't right for you? I guess my concern is that I'd be missing out on a degree and possibly a stable job opportunity in the future. I don't know. It feels like employers don't even care about a degree anymore anyway. Plus with film you don't need a degree to succeed. Any thoughts, ideas, or advice is appreciated.
