• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Why does your period cause u to be so tired??? Whats your remedy besides sleep amd caffiene LOL?
Being gentle with yourself during your period helps. Perhaps not going as many places and having quiet times.

My wife suffers from painful and tiring periods. Some people use painkillers to help with pain. Some drink tea.

With my wife sometimes I have her use a heating pad, it seems to relieve pain. I also found that if I massage/rub the bladder area (or in easier terms where the uh "body hair" is) she says the pain goes away for awhile. But I have to rub it for like 20 minutes.

Hey Thank you all!
Yes my flow has been very light from hormonal medication. But I feel super tired. I have been taken iron pills for like 2 weeks. I am probably guessing that I feel so :ill: because I have the flu. The flu plus cramps and Ms. Flow is not fun lol!

Caffeine can make your tiredness worse. Taking iron, magnesium and lots of vitamin C can help. Lay off the caffeine. :)
