How to go to class with bad period pain?

My leg pain and cramps got worse after I got to high school. Sometimes the pain is so bad but my school doesn't allow sick leave for period pain and it hurts my attendance rate so I just have to bear with it and power through it, I cant even learn anything because I cant focus. Luckily my homeroom teacher is understanding and she lets me go home sometimes. My friend recommended me birth control pills to reduce the pain, I've never been on one and im worried about the side effects. How do you manage on your bad period days?

I keep waking up in the middle of the night for 3 nights in a row because of nightmares about my boyfriend leaving me.

I cant sleep well these days because of those nightmares. I try to have a comfortable sleep posture, i think of happy things, i eat well, stay hydrated, but nothing seems to work. I dont take any medication except for my vitamins and supplement. Why am I having these nightmares? I am in good relationship with my bf, idk whats going on but its stressing me out.

Edit: Thank you, rly appreciate everyone trying to help. Ill just go to sleep again and hope the dreams go away.

My best friend waited until I got a boyfriend to confess to me...

I guess I kinda understand now why some ppl say boys and girls cant be best friends? I dont rly believe in it but now Im feeling so hurt. Ive been together with best friend since kindergarten and we shared many fun memories together. My parents love him and his parents are always happy to see me when I visit his house. We grew up together attending the same school and walked home together since our house is like 5 minutes walk away from each other. I dont know when but I started having feelings for him, maybe it was when he stayed over and took care of me like a baby when I was rly sick.

It was also my fault that i didnt have the courage to dare and open up to him about my feelings at the thought of losing what we have and ruining our 7 years friendship, maybe he felt the same way too. I stored my feelings for him away and after a while I started seeing him as a best friend again instead of as a crush and those feelings faded away.

1 month ago, I got into a relationship. My boyfriend is our senior who is very kind and I had so many similarities and same vibes with him so we grew close to each other over a short time. Its going to be our 1st monthiversary in 2 days and Im really happy with him. My best friend seemed happy for me at first and the slowly started avoiding conversations with me and to the point he started avoiding being in the same room as me when theres no class.

Today, he sent me a long text saying how depressed he is because I got a boyfriend, when he already thought about a future with me. He told me that hes really hurt and hates himself because he planned to confess to me after we got to high school and he regrets not doing it earlier. He said he'll be waiting for me if anything goes wrong with my boyfriend and he will avoid me totally so he wont get between us.

Even while writing this vent I have a shortness of oxygen because my heart is so heavy. I still want to be friends with him but hes right that it will complicate things with my bf.. I didnt know he had feelings for me and i always thought he treated me as his best friend or little sister. The feelings i hid away came back and hit me that I still have a soft spot for him. But now Im really in love with my boyfriend.

My best friend disabled all his social media so Im afraid he will do smth stupid. I havent respond to his message because i dont even know what to say.. I already decided that I want to be with my boyfriend and nothing will change that, I know my best friend cares abt me and knows Im happy so I wonder why now out of all time he chose to open up his feelings for me and ruin my happiness, when I am genuinely happy and smiling. Now im just wishing i didnt wake up today and summer holiday is over.. i cant take this anymore stuck in my room.

Sorry for the long vent, i hav no one else to vent on.
