HRT is making me feel so much better mentally. No longer do I desire to jump off of tall buildings . I'm finding I'm lucky to have other benefits to doing HRT that are unrelated to my dysphoria. I have high  blood pressure which is taken care of by the spiro. The big thing though is that I kind of feel like an experimental rat. I have a hereditary disease that's been carried by the males of my lineage since probably the stone age. My therapist and I are seeing if its the testosterone that enabling the disease. It's pretty interesting. If I can knock out the dysphoria , the high blood pressure and my hereditary disease in one fell swoop it will be pretty cool. the disease so far after 7 months of HRT does seem to have a connection to the testosterone. Its going to take time to see if it helps ,but I have no plans of stopping HRT unless I get hit by a bus. Plus it could turn out to be a big confirmation my brain is totally wired female.
