Period cramps

Ne

On a scale from 1-10 10 being excruciating, how bad are your period cramps? I fear my period at this point because they are so painful. I find myself throwing up, balling up on the floor, crying, yelling, popping about 6 ibuprofen a day which is not healthy I feel I may develop ulcers from the amount of pills I take. So, anybody go through this?
