Been using rags and toilet paper for my period for the past 2 days. Yesterday, I’ve had an incident in the office where there was a bloodstain at my bottoms, it was humiliating to say the least.
After lunch break I’ve found this at my desk and I never thought someone would care. I know it’s silly and small but I literally cried because of the gesture.
Life’s been a real struggle lately after 2 months of being unemployed. Been eating ramen for almost 2 months now just to survive. Was also called smelly at least twice in my workplace coz I had to walk over an hour just to get there. 2 more weeks and I could finally afford to ride the bus and eat something other than burger!!

In my last two workplaces, I advocated for – and got budget to – stock menstrual products in company bathrooms for anyone to use. A (small) variety of different sized pads and tampons. There were some anonymous donations too.
In terms of cost savings and continuity-of-production, providing these is a no-brainer.
So glad she was kind. Hang in there. 💕
Hang in there ! You’ll get this
Not everyone’s an asshole, in fact I think majority of people are nice people. Keep pushing forward, ignore the assholes.
