This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

If you’re on the pill and toss the last week, how do you avoid getting PMS symptoms? I’ve tried skipping a period only a handful of times and my boobs start hurting a few days before I would normally start taking the sugar pills and stay sore until I do take them.
I think it must take a while for your body to forget the rhythm. My only experience is the Depo, and I never have PMS symptoms at all.
