Vagina Problems Chapter 4 by Lara Parker

You can find the book listed under my “Resources” tab, it’s listed on my Amazon storefront!

This book is so good so far!! Even though I don't like the amount of curse words she uses, I can relate to her on so many levels. Wanted to share this part of the book and man can I agree on this, especially in regards to social media! 


"If it isn't people reminding me that my pain could be worse, so I should just suck it up and stop being a sad, angry girl; or minimizing my pain and telling me it's making me stronger; it's people thinking they can fix me. Living with a chronic illness is really like, I think it would be this: You are just trying to live your life and do the best you can, but you are constantly bombarded with people who truly believe they know what is best for your body. They, the people who are not living in your body, think they understand it better than you...THE PERSON IN THE BODY. And even though you never asked them for help or communicated that you would like advice, they give it to you anyway. And 99.9% of the time, it's useless. Not only is it useless, though. It's also downright insulting". - Vagina Problems by Lara Parker


I can definitely relate to this, I've had so many people comment on their judgments that I had a cookie or bread and tell me I should stay away from all that stuff to feel better. 


NEWS FLASH there is no cure, while eating a certain way MIGHT help symptoms there are tons of others out there who have my condition and have tried gluten-free, dairy-free, and even plant-based diets that STILL have pain. Changing your diet isn't a sure thing and it definitely is not a cure!

Last Night

I should have come on here and posted this last night but totally forgot to do so, so I'm on here now making this blog post. I created this blog because I wanted to raise awareness for Endometriosis, give resources, and share education along with sharing my own personal journey/experience with this condition. So that's why I'm sharing this post today.  Last night went pretty well when the pain came over me suddenly without warning, I was sitting on the couch watching a True Crime video on YouTube and doing some loom knitting which I hadn't done in months when all of a sudden I started to get pain at the same time on both sides of my pelvis that literally felt like someone took 2 knives and stabbed my pelvis continuously this pain lasted for probably 15 minutes and then went away. But my first thought was "Oh no, am I going to have a flare-up tonight?" It literally felt like I was going to have a flare, I will never forget what it felt like at the onset and I k...
