Today, I switched from pads to tampons. It took me several botched attempts trying insert one before I succeeded, and now I feel like I've just raped myself. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I decided to make the switch from pads to tampons. My boyfriend ended up having to show me how to apply them. FML
Today, I was mugged while changing my tampon. The mugger took everything, including the fresh tampon. FML
Today, I put a tampon in. The string broke. I had to go to the hospital to get it out. FML
Today, I used a menstrual cup for the first time. I couldn't get it out, after what seemed like ages of trying. I had to ask my boyfriend to help me. He'll never look at me the same way again. FML
Today, I learned the hard way that I'm allergic to a particular brand of tampon. FML
Today, I realized I get more pleasure from a tampon than my boyfriend I have been having sex with for the past six months. FML
Today, I realized my tampon goes deeper than my boyfriend. FML
Today, I was faced with the inevitable horrible circumstances which lead me to put in a tampon on a moving city bus. FML
Today, I woke up in a puddle of blood after 7 hours of sleep. Before going to bed, I had inserted a tampon that should've kept me dry for at least 8 hours. Apparently it doesn't work well if sleepy me forgets to take the top part of the plastic wrapping off. FML
Today, I'm sick with a fever, and on my cycle I was too tired and forgot to change my tampon, and ended up putting another one in. I woke up to go to the bathroom and ended up pulling two out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"**** yourself!" is only a phrase, don't take it too literally!

I remember tampons hurting like hell the first couple of times I used them. Once you get used to them you literally cannot feel having one in. Try using one first thing in the morning on a heavy day - it's gross but the blood will act like lube :s

The first period with them is the worst. I got my period for the first time and had to use a tampon within 10 minutes, because I had to go to swim practice. I was lucky, and didnt have any problems besides the pain. I promise OP it gets better by the second or third period using them

You know, there is something called 'a label' inserted in a tampon box. I read that and then I knew what I had to do. And I'm also one of the very few who didn't had a problem with it - seriously, I didn't know it hurt so much for so many girls.

Don't use tampons with applicators, it's better to just use your fingers, also, buy the small ones with the silky touch lining. Being a girl really sucks sometimes! But we have boobs, and boobs are awesome!

At least the deed is done. Have a happy period OP.

First: relax and don't worry about whether you are a virgin. Tampons are not like being raped, I am sad that people are making that comparison. Vaginas are wonderful things that can hold in a little tampon and also take on sex and childbirth. I would suggest the slimfit or gentle glide variety.
