Slight tmi warning. When I was around 13/14 is when my menstrual cycle began to put me in excruciating pain (like abnormally painful cramping) I would often throw up countless times, pass out, and loudly cry in literal pain and agony. Parent rant in part2

Instead of my dad and stepmom taking me for medical help or even consoling me in some way they just screamed at me to shut up and even my stepmom ridiculed me saying it wasn’t that bad and to stop being dramatic. It was honestly so degrading and hurts to even think about their total disregard for me in that situation. Anyways, I brought it up to my dad recently within an argument and he basically tried to avoid actually answering why he did that.

That’s awful they treated you that way, I also had severely symptomatic period when I started, I still do sometimes, with the pain, vomiting, dizziness, I even passed out once. My mom, tho a bitch, was at least understanding and would let me stay home from school (I’d usually get sent home) and lay in bed all day.

I’m so sorry you have had to deal with such insensitivity and gaslighting. I highly encourage you to get checked for endo. It honestly sounds a lot like it, and there are ways to treat it.

Tho she has done the whole “I tried to help you and you wouldn’t let me” routine with all my other health issues that she chooses to blame me for, when they are chronic conditions with UNKNOWN causes.
