As if it couldn't get any clearer that POV You're My Therapist is for the Gowrls, the Gays, the Thems and Theys, on this episode we talk about periods.

Have you ever had a moment when you go to starbucks and the very nice barista gets your order right but they misspell your name and for some reason it enrages you👹 to the point that you're about to turn into John Wick🧑🏻‍💼 🐕 right after someone hurt his puppy?

Or suddenly after literally doing the bare mininum, you feel so exhausted. Then you feel sad that you're exhausted, and ashamed that you're sad about being exhausted? That the end of the world is near anyways, so you cancel therapy and cry and try to swim through the motions of a depressive episode, alone?

Or, you're looking at life like, "this isn't worth it, maybe I ought to go play in traffic." ? And you cry and cry and cry and you feel so beside yourself and out of control of your own thoughts that you literally don't know what to do...?

And then two days later your period comes and suddenly the world is all 🍭☀️ sunshines and rainbows 🦄🌈 and you're so happy you didn't go all John Wick on the barista and go to jail. And you're happy you didn't play in traffic because, "Oh my God, life is a gift! A beautiful, beautiful gift! I love everyone and I am the most beautiful,🥰 happiest, 😇angel, alive."?

Bestie, you might have PMDD. :(

Also, we talk about kinkeeping.

0:00.0	Hi, welcome to POV and my therapist, the podcast where I vent, you listen, and you do not get paid.
0:17.3	First and foremost, I want to say, this podcast is for the girls, the gays, the thems, and the days.
0:28.6	If you do not fall into any of these categories, I promise you you're not going to like what you hear.
0:36.6	Okay?
0:38.3	You need to understand that.
0:41.3	I'm confused as to why I keep getting a bunch of random DMs from men who are upset about my personal experience and the things that I have to say about my personal experience,
0:56.3	they're just very mad about it. And I'm like, bestie, this isn't for you to understand.
1:01.5	Because if men understood these things, they wouldn't be a problem to begin with.
1:06.6	Granted, there's a couple of men who listen to the podcast, and they get it. I can shout out a
1:12.5	couple right now. There's Q. He's awesome. He's an artist. You should follow him on Instagram.
1:19.6	I think his Instagram name is Kwan the artist. Amazing. Second of all, there's Chris, who I don't
1:27.3	know your last name, but we follow each other on Twitter,
1:30.8	and he's so fucking hilarious.
1:33.1	And all the time, he sends me DMs just supporting me and being awesome, and I love him.
1:40.1	He's been there from the beginning.
1:42.2	So there are men that get it.
1:44.3	And even in one of the most recent reviews, there's a guy that said, I don't think this is for me, but I like this.
1:50.7	So if what you hear upsets you, ask yourself why it upsets you.
1:57.1	There's a lot of generalizations that can be made, and I make them.
2:00.4	I'm sorry. But if every man I've
2:02.8	interacted with shows the same qualities, maybe it should be generalized. If you're the one who's
2:10.0	different, I don't really think you're going to get offended by what I have to say. Because if you're
