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!

You'll get it eventually or get used to the feeling or maybe back to pads again...either way being adventurous is a good thing...

I first used one as a virgin. I was well educated by my mom about intimacy and tampons, so I never had trouble with them. That's why ladies need to be taught.. Also, I think it's a bit offensive to say it felt like "self rape."

The sad truth is that pads smell bad, but no one wants to talk about that. Tampons require skill and experience to use, but are 100% more hygienic when done right. TSS is only a risk if you are completely irresponsible with them.

I know this may sounds disgusting but don't try unless you are very lubricated like on your heaviest day and use the smallest size you can on your first time. Plus try to relax (most important thing). Use a plastic one and have pads as back ups.
