Paralyzed on the couch, lying in the fetal position as you snuggle to a hot water bag and pop ibuprofen like candy.
Sounds familiar?
You winced, didn’t you?
Periods suck. Period.
This is a universally acknowledged truth that no sane person will try to contest because let’s face it. Periods just aren’t fun. Every month, Mother Nature decides to bless you with agonizing cramps, fatigue, and the constant, irresistible urge to want to kill something. However, you can’t muster up the energy to make good on your threats because, well… (Refer to paralyzed on the couch.)
It doesn’t matter whether you’re a girl or a boy- when the Crimson fever is upon a woman there are no winners. Everyone’s a victim. Which is why the healthiest possible way to handle the situation (besides ranting your heart out on social media of course) is humor. Yep, a good old dose of the tummy ticklers. Because why not laugh, when you want to cry, right? In the words of the great Mahatma Gandhi, “If I had no sense of humor, I would have long ago committed suicide” (or become a serial killer). So read on to discover a selection of period memes that will take you from cradling your pelvis and grimacing to clutching your abdomen and belly laughing!

2. How my period greets me
The old brought to my very knees pain. Glad we can laugh about it now, right? Right…? Please don’t cry.

Because at the end of the day, your uterus is one mean son of a bitch.

While we’re at it, where’s the epidural for period pain anyway?
