Roller Coaster Rides from Hell: Let's Talk About Mood Swings
Mood swings – many of us have been on that hellish roller coaster ride. You’re fine one minute and then without warning and without any apparent reason, you’re irritated or depressed or anxious or nervous or just generally upset, and then you’re fine again.
What causes mood swings? Mood swings have been attributed to multiple sources, and very often to changes in hormones. There’s no question that hormones running amok can have a profound influence on mood. But we all have hormones and they all shift around before, during, and after menstruation but we don’t all go on crying jags or fly into a rage.
So, could something else be going on? There is an increasing number of studies that show a relationship between what you eat and how you feel emotionally.

Reasons Why You Deserve the Best Love In the World
Kaitlyn Luckow
There’s a line in The Perks of Being A Wallflower that is totally overused on Pinterest, but it’s true that “You accept the love you think you deserve.”
Unfortunately, I’ve known a lot of people (and I’m sure you have to) that accept the love that isn’t full, isn’t genuine, and sometimes even toxic.
If you’re stuck in a situation where the love that you’re receiving from others, whether that’s in a romantic relationship, friendship, or even familial relationship, I want to talk to you today about why you’re worth more.
If you’re giving, giving, giving all of the time and not receiving any support back, you deserve more.

Surviving Seasonal and Holiday Sadness
Kaitlyn Luckow
While the holidays are known for being a time of joy and cheer, oftentimes we can also feel a strong sense of sadness and loneliness. We can feel it because we miss family members, we can feel it because of the trauma dealing with family causes, or even just because there’s not as much sunlight during the day.
Whatever the reason, seasonal and holiday sadness is a very real thing and shouldn’t be pushed aside. It can be even more hostile towards individuals who already have a mental illness such as depression.
Although it may not be possible to avoid entirely, here are some ways that can help you survive seasonal sadness this holiday season:

Memoirs of the Travelling Woman
Victoria M.
We all know the feeling, a great trip coming up! We have been anticipating it for some time…be it a business trip with a huge client or a much needed vacation. You have your outfits packed, all of your essentials – creams, pastes, gels, liners, mascara, the whole bit. You are ready to take on the world and you are so anxious to get it going.
But then…it happens! Your period comes. Out of all the toiletries and perfumes and extra hair ties you packed, there is only ONE pantyliner in the bottom of your favorite travel bag. What do you do? Most of the time, when I travel and stop in the airport shops – feminine hygiene items are neither here nor there. Even the bathrooms are a space of despair. What do you do? You resort to asking someone, oh so politely, in the bathroom while standing at the sink. Ahhhhhh!

Reviews
I had no idea upon finding this product that my life would change forever and for the better! This technology has helped relive pain and discomfort throughout my menstruation which typically tends to be awful and disruptive to daily activities. Nothing I say can express how wonderful this company is. Just get out there and try it for yourself!!
My new favorite pads! It eliminates my cramps to a minimum and lessen my period days. I love that it’s organic and there’s no chemicals.
I definitely noticed a difference in using Nano. I was miserable my next cycle without them. They have great protection and my cramps didn’t hurt as much! Highly recommend using them.
I love these pads! They are the only ones that help with the terrible discomforts during my period. Plus, I'm going through perimenopause and having these on hand is a life saver
I do get extremely bad cramping for about 2-3 days, I did feel much better and only took one dose of pain pills for my cramps. I do like these, I took off one star for feeling wet. I do like to feel wetness, I despise feeling that way. A bit of chaffing as well. Now that could be on me because my menses lasts me up to 9 days sometimes. I did love of how everything I needed came in one little box. Very convenient.
I have been using these pads for almost 2years, my daughter and I love them to the moon and back,they are amazing,I used to hate my period,now, I don't mind cause I have the best pad ever, excellent product. THE BEST
I would highly recommend the Nanno pads to any woman, especially those who suffer from menstrual issues. This type of pad is literally a life saver. I was highly allergic to other brands which caused much discomfort. I came across these at my local CVS and they were the best. I won't use any other brands. You will be very pleased they help to lessen menstrual cramps and they are more pure.
I have purchased this product once before and that prompted me to purchase more. I can say they help with coverage during your heavy days. I like the fact that they are thinner than most brands.
I love these pads sooo much. They actually do help with my period pain and so absorbent, don't smell at all... literally perfect!
I have been using Nannopads for the past few months. I've held off writing a review because I wanted to really see if there is a difference between more natural products & that of the big manufacturers. Welp! I can safely say...I don't miss the heat that the plastic on most pads make you feel all day. I don't miss the minute crinkling sound as I walk with a "traditional" pad. And, I don't miss my privates perspiring & irritation! So, I recommend highly recommend Nannopads!
My review may seem a little biased. I didn't purchase these for my cycle. I purchased these based off the fact I was having major surgery and I would need pads during recovery . What drew me in, was the fact it was suppose to help with discomfort and they weren't the typical pad. So far, I love these pads. I don't feel like I'm wearing a pad, especially how even the thins in other brands felt bulky. Since I'm still recuperating, these have helped me through the spotting and I've noticed there has been a reduction in discomfort.
For the first time in over 20 plus years I didn't have to take any medication during my menstrual cycle. While I did experience some discomfort, it was tolerable without pain medication. Now I'm a bit of a skeptic, so even after the amazing results, I had to wait for a second cycle to post my results. Comparing the two cycles I consider the first cycle a "light" (not the norm for me) which consist of me talking about 1800mg of motrin during each of the first two days. The next cycle was a doozy, ( the norm) which usually consist of me taking the 800mg of motrin every six hours and still having discomfort. I'm very excited to report I only had to take 400mg of motrin during the first 24hrs. These results are amazing, on my worst cycle the nanno pad significantly reduced my pain. I have given the nanno pads to my nieces, I'm hopeful they see the same results since they too suffer from cramps. LIFETIME CUSTOMER!
These are the best pads I’ve ever tried! They are super absorbent so I feel more confident wearing them. I really didn’t see much of a difference in my cramps but I’m ok with that. The only thing I would change is to make to panty liners a little longer or have an option for longer ones.
I had some of the most debilitating cramps a few days ago and my mom gave me these NannoPads. I put it on and literally within 20 mins my cramps were going away. I couldn't believe it. Now I am the person who pops in an Advil or ibuprofen to get rid of the pain because I am a workaholic and I NEVER want to miss work. BUT I hate painkillers so the fact that I found a product that is natural AND SO EASY to help relieve my cramps is very exciting for me.
I have no idea what is in these pads, but they are wonderful! I normally have horrible backaches and migraines and it seemed when I was using these pads, I didn't experience any migraine pain and very little back pain, I am a full-time college student and my period usually keeps me out of school one day a month and this month, I was able to attend school every day, as I did not have any discomfort that was so extreme that 1 had to miss classes! Please tell me what this product is! Thanks again for letting me be n part of this great study and letting me he practically pain-free for at least one month of my period!
