I just want my period to start so I don’t have to deal with this anymore

Okay so I get it, waiting for your first period can be like, literally the longest wait ever. It's totally normal to feel impatient or even a little annoyed by all the changes happening without the main event starting. It's like your body is doing all this prep work and you're just waiting for the show to begin.
Everyone's body moves at its own speed, you know? Some people get their periods earlier, some later. There's no right or wrong timeline. Your body is doing a lot of work right now, getting ready for your first period and all the periods after that.
It can help to focus on the signs your body is giving you that it's getting close. Things like breast buds forming, hair growing under your arms and down there, and getting vaginal discharge are all clues that your body is on its way. It usually happens a few months after discharge starts. If you want to get a rough idea, there's a quiz on this site that helps you figure out how close you might be: how close is my first period?
