Abbie asked

Should I get a safe space or corner just for me to feel safe in? Or when I need to calm down if I get mood swings?

Soso answered

YES, literally yes! Having your own special spot to chill out when you're feeling all the feels is a super smart idea.

Okay so, your body is doing all sorts of new things right now, and sometimes that can make your moods go a little wild, especially around your period. Having a designated cozy corner or a safe space where you can just be yourself and calm down is like having a superpower. It helps you reset and feel more in control when everything else feels kinda chaotic.

Think about what makes you feel comfy and relaxed. Maybe it's a spot with soft blankets and pillows, your favorite book, some headphones for music, or a journal to write in. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, just somewhere that feels like yours where you can go to breathe and feel safe.
