Tampon stuck?

[emthegossipgirl.livejournal.com]

Sorry if there have been previous posts about this, but I have a relatively urgent question pertaining to tampon removal.

I've always had problems with tampons, and over the past few months, I've been making an effort to get one in. Today I made much progress. It was mostly in, but the applicator was giving me a bit of pressure, which made me nervous, so I slowly pulled it out...trying to keep the tampon in the appliicator. Well, I failed. It's in there...and not all the way. It's stuck. It gives me pain, I can't even sit down in my chair to type this: I'm kneeling. I tried to pull it out, but I think it's too dry to get out. It's close enough to the outside that I can see the very tip of it, so I tried splashing water up there...didn't work. It also hurts when I bend over. I just started my period this morning, so it's not too heavy. Any ideas as to how I can pry this thing out?

Oh, man. There are few things in the world that feel as bad/weird as pulling out a tampon that is too dry. It's awful. Agh!

Seriously, it's so bad. I tried explaining this to my fiance and he just didn't understand why I couldn't pull out the tampon I'd just put it to have sex.

That's my point, I had just put a tampon in and he wanted me to take it out so we could have sex. No way was I up for that.

seriously. and on top of that i have this wierd sensory issue with cotton where it drives me INSANE. can't touch cotton balls, q-tips creep me out when i hear the fibers... basically anything cotton-y can make me feel sick. it's really really really horrible. so i use plastic applicators so i don't have to feel the cottony tampon going in and any time i have to take it out when it isn't properly wet i just want to die.

cotton feeling+ripping of insides=absolute hell
