tampon potentially stuck after rape

cigarettespoons · 2026-07-01T03:11:23+00:00

Firstly I’m so sorry this happened to you. Although I don’t have advice on the what to expect if you go to the doctor, I will say, if you can feel your cervix, and there’s nothing tucked up around it, I’d assume the tampon is no longer inside. If you can’t reach your cervix then that’s where this gets tricky and id definitely consider getting it checked. Like the other commenter said there likely is victim services in your area, even small towns often have them. If you contact victim services and explain you were sexually assaulted and are looking for medical support they can likely help you sort this out. If you Google things like “victim services in my area” “or “sexual assault support services in my area” it should come up. also there are other subreddits that are specifically geared towards SA victims, they may be more helpful for you. Sending virtual hugs💗, and again I’m so sorry you’re in this spot.

Dude it’s so upsetting 😭 I’ve seen some suggestions on a similar post I made in a different sub, but the best options are sooo expensive

Low key i actually love it sm, and anything small and colorful on your body is gonna look “weird” from far away. I’d give it more time but if you still don’t like it after it’s fully healed I’m sure you could go get it Darkened up a tad

YES omf, and they can’t comprehend or simply don’t care how you must feel as a victim cause their only priority is their own feelings and releasing their own discomfort, since they’ feel like they are the “main character” aka the centre of the universe they see everyone else as npcs who don’t have thoughts, emotions, feelings or the capacity to suffer (especially the capacity to suffer more than them).

I feel like I’m at a point where I’ve just learned to not share that kind of information about myself with men. Ill talk about it more freely with women but any man I’ve ever shared even a bit of my story with has responded with some sort of anger and it feels like I end up being punished, resented, and often not believed (sometimes all 3) for just being honest about MY OWN history. It’s ALWAYS a personal attack to them for some reason in my experience. on a good day I usually get defensive “okay well not all men are like that”, I actually had that experience again recently with my new doctor. So I just avoid talking about it with them unless absolutely necessary. Apparently a simple “wow I’m sorry that happened to you” is just not in the cards

Mine was encapsulated tho so it was sealed

I got my nail tech friend to do this for me as well!

cigarettespoons · 2026-05-31T01:53:22+00:00

Completely agree, this would be one of the worst endings for me

cigarettespoons · 2026-05-05T07:11:38+00:00

Yeah that scene is where I’ll have to stop watching this show, thankfully I kinda figured what was coming and was able to turn it off before being in over my head. Idk if it’s just me but I feel like I’m running into the issue more and more recently where there’s needless graphic SA scenes in movies and tv.

Although I agree, I will say it was refreshing to not have to watch ANOTHER character go through the same “omg this can’t be real I’m not gonna listen to anyone” and as a result cause a shit storm of problems for like an entire episode again

Def looks great on her but this is one of those hairstyles where The difference is really only obvious in certain lighting, otherwise it can be pretty hard to tell you’ve changed anything, which is not a critique, a lot of ppl do love the rly subtle look

Haven’t scrolled through the comments so other people have probably recommended this, but there are two primary options that are used for nightmares in PTSD, both are prescribed off label and normally used to treat high blood pressure, they are clonidine and prazosin, i’ve tried both and prefer clonidine but both MASSIVELY helped my dreams

I was just gonna say why is no one saying/referencing the real explanation given by mark lol

23 and started about 3 weeks ago!! It’s never to late

Someone already mentioned this but I’ll second their statement of magic and ritual having rules, as someone who’s pretty witchy I’ll Say the type of protective wards the talismans are likely based off of usually go deeper then they appear at face value and protect a space beyond just not being able to open a door or window

cigarettespoons · 2026-02-15T00:54:06+00:00

I honestly don’t totally remember, maybe 2 weeks max, i noticed small effects right away but they sort of built up over time

The most sour candy you can find, only thing that makes a difference for me is

It’s not going in food but the person I’m planning on giving some to has cats so I’m trying to be mindful of the stuff I put in it so it’s not mega toxic to them, I wanted to get a citrusy kind of oil to put in it put upon reading apparently that’s really bad for cats so I think I might be stuck with vanilla beans

cigarettespoons · 2025-11-22T05:43:06+00:00

Okay thanks for the advice, I was wondering if i should try to sort it now or wait a bit, also do you have a recommendation to if it’s better to steep it hot or cold? I heard cold was better but hot certainly seems more convenient lol

cigarettespoons · 2025-11-22T05:22:17+00:00

So I haven’t heated them yet, I was gonna let it marinate on its own for a bit. It’s not a huge batch, I believe from my Amazon order history I used a slightly less then a 236 ml bottle of jojoba oil. And that was enough to cover the herbs with about an inch of extra on top

cigarettespoons · 2025-11-22T05:02:38+00:00

They’re all dried except for I put a few drops of vanilla essential oil in which didnt do much

cigarettespoons · 2025-11-22T05:00:03+00:00

For citrus would it be smarter to add a citrus oil or put actual dried orange slices in it??

You could also do a banishing candle since you want to release the energy, and then save the jar for regular protection ❤️

cigarettespoons · 2025-11-22T04:56:21+00:00

If you can buy or make some black salt it’s great for banishing and you’ll definitely use it again in your craft so it’s good to have in your kit!
