ok so, my entire vagina has been super sore and like stinging. inside and out. i've never had sex before so im pretty sure it's not an STD. it started about 2 days after my period and im still on my period right now. it almost feels like it might be swollen. and im also having MAXIMUM discharge. it's about 10x more than I normally have on a daily basis. It's really disgusting. Basically what I want to know is what this is, why it's happening, and how I can prevent it or stop it. (link)

Welcome to the wonderful world of yeast infections.
It's most likely what it is, but it would be wise to get a confirmation through a doctor's visit if you can.
There are are over-the-counter meds that work fairly quickly.
A good preventative is to eat some yogurt with active yogurt cultures every few days.
There are also creams you can buy that help minimize the itch, or, many women like the old fashioned trick of using yogurt as a topical application. A little messy, wear a pad. Once this is over, make sure to wear panties with a cotton crotch.
