Nervous about periods at school!?

Question

I will have mine at school...

I'm always afraid to stand up because of leaks and that gush. I'm not allowed to tie sweaters around my waist (uniform) but I'm scared of leaks. I won't have much time to use the washroom washrooms are located in the opposite side of where most of my classes are...

also what about changerooms in gym, and changing supplies (sound? speed?)

I'm so scared.

Also I ran out of tampon

and periods make me feel so sad for some reason. ugh I can't stand it! please help me

Answer 1

Feeling depressed or sad during your period is absolutely normal. It's because of hormones. If you're scared that it will leak, wear an extra large pad, or if you're still uncomfortable, see if you have time to go to your local shopping mall, or a convineice store to but more tampons.

Answer 2

you just have to trust your pad/tampon...trust me..i thought i "leaked" alot of times...and i wasnt even close..just trust it.

and if it goes thro..i dont think it will make it thru your pad, underwear, AND pants...just put some toliet paper on top if you have to...school day isnt that long. you will be fine. im sure of it...i have been there and done that. ik how u feel and what ur thinking

EDIT:....oh about the gym..just change in a bathroom stall if you have them in the locker room...but..if you dont, dont worrie about it..just change really fast, and i dont think anyone will notice

Answer 3

that gush is usually just a feeling its not really as much as you think. if your so worried use a pad and tampon but you shouldn't worry so much just change like normal if somebody is looking that hard they are the one with aproblem not you hunny. they always make you feel bad its hormones and knowing its gonna suck the next few days. it'll be okay just  don't worry so much,
