Everest

Do you ever feel like you've gone so high in every possible emotion you could feel in one moment that Mt. Everest looks like a hill in Oklahoma? Your senses are so elevated that you are having a vertigo? If you have - welcome to my club. We can be partners in this climb - let's have coffee and discuss the route.
If you haven't, imagine this happening in the middle of the night: you are rudely awaken from a dream of peace and you have this uncomfortable feeling of all your nerves being on the OUTSIDE of your skin. It only lasts a few seconds. Good news. Bad news - I've not found a way to deal with this sharp sensation. It hurts...

I've had a pathetic version of a period last September. I literally sat there on my toilet seat and laughed at what my ovaries managed to produce. 'Really?' I asked them, realizing that I was clearly in need of therapy if I was talking to my ovaries. Ok, this is definitely the end, I thought. My ovaries are dead. Right?
Wrong!

Come December and I am back in business! My period after 2.5 years is nasty and brutal. Worst of all - it hurt like hell (back to pain killers!), like I was a teenager again (without the perkiness of various parts of my body). Once again, I sat on my toilet seat and tried to reason with the Ovary Gods - what do you want from me? I am already having no sleep, mood swings, pains in places I never knew I had, hot flashes, cold flashes - what else do you want from me?

They answered: you can have your discharge back. Plenty of it, too.
Just to make it clear - when my period started ceasing, my regular discharges diminished to the point where I actually started enjoying going commando (no panties). For the first time, since I was 11!
Well, too good to last. It's back again. With the vengeance. No more sissiness, no more little mess - it's a flood. It requires changing your liners and wearing one in bed at night...

But I am not losing hope. It's a rough time, and I am probably barely at my second base on my way to the top. But the goal is still the same - the very peak of Mt. Everest and I have no choice but to get there.
Looking forward to the view!
