awkward tampon question :/?
I started using them yesterday and i’m using playtex, the kind with the plastic applicator and it’s bothering me.I can’t really get the nerve to do it, because they give me headaches.I can feel my body wondering what the hell i’m doing and whenever I think about tampons, or try to put one in, it gives me headaches and I get anxious.
Am i being silly?

That’s fine. You’re just nervous. To be honest, I still get stressed about using them. I use Always pads with wings. If I have to go to the pool or something, I’ll use a tampon. And if I’m wearing a skirt, I wear tights or pantyhose to cover up.
When you do become less anxious about it, you can try again later. Don’t force yourself. Sometimes people just aren’t made for tampons. That’s why there are other options.

it’s normal.
i remember the first time i tried it, i almost fainted because of nervousness. Just try to relax yourself and down there as well. It’ll be hard to put in the tampon if your nerves down there are tense. But always be sure that you are comfortable with what you are doing.

you’re not being silly at all, its taken me a couple of years to get comfortable using them(although i still prefer not to) Because there was times when I wanted to go swimming or go for a long run, i had no choice but to use them and each time it gets easier. Just relax and dont force it.
Let us know your thoughts!
the first time i tried to wear a tampon i passed out, because i made myself so nervous.
thats probably what ur doing. ur overthinkin it, just relax and u should be alright but if ur not u can always go back to pads.
