I&nbsp;didn\u2019t know what was happening to me. I&nbsp;felt no pain and things just took a&nbsp;quick shift. My classmates laughed at me and that really killed my energy. To think that the girls laughed at me and most of them probably knew what was happening to me even broke me more. I&nbsp;didn\u2019t know who to talk to because during those days, phones were not allowed in schools, so I&nbsp;couldn\u2019t call my mother \u2026 My teacher noticed when I&nbsp;stood up again to walk out.

People kept staring and laughing until my teacher explained what had happened and how to deal with it. After that I&nbsp;didn\u2019t go to school for two weeks because I&nbsp;was still traumatized.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you feel about your own menstruation?<\/h3>\n\n<p><strong>Laureen:<\/strong>&nbsp;I&nbsp;have learnt to love each one of my menstruations, embrace them, and speak about&nbsp;them.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Caroline:<\/strong>&nbsp;It still scares me to date; every time I&nbsp;am on my period, I&nbsp;keep looking at myself, hoping to not have messed up.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which menstrual products have you already tried?<\/h3>\n\n<p><strong>Laureen:<\/strong>&nbsp;Pads are the only ones I&nbsp;have used.

And the minute we all get to understand this and get the non-menstruators to understand the importance of not taking advantage of menstruating people for something they have no control over, the better this will get for our young menstruators.
