Craving T

[Arch]

When I was younger, I had problems with booze. I wasn't a true alcoholic, but I was psychologically dependent on alcohol. I wonder if the same thing is happening with testosterone, and it kind of worries me.

This will probably sound a little weird, but sometimes I get addiction-style feelings about T. I really look forward to my shot every week. But sometimes in the middle of a cycle, I find myself wishing I could shoot up now. I'm not sure why I want to, but I want to. And it's a strong urge, not a passing fancy. I inject on Fridays but often think on a Monday or Tuesday or whatever, "Hey, I could just shoot up today and make Monday/Tuesday/whatever my new shot day." And I really want to do it.

Do you ever feel this way? Where do you think it comes from?

well yes and no, i am a big "instant gratification" type person...so when i "crave" my T  i think im just wanting more results faster sooner

Every morning with my "E", Baby.  Every morning.  But I understand the addition thing.  My drug of choice is nicotine.  and I really get nervous when I don't know when I am getting my next fix.

Same with me...but also this probably just has to do with me wanting results faster. At this point I just want to wake up and look male so I can stop with all this "in between" bull.

I haven't started T yet, but I'm already craving it. 

I guess it's because usually when I make a major decision, I take years and years to think about it.  But once I've finally made up my mind, I'm well-prepared and eager to move forward with my plans as soon as possible.

I know this isn't it for me. I mean, I would love to have faster results, but this is more like I'm on a diet and thinking that I can't eat dinner till six, can't eat dinner till six, can't eat--no, screw this, I'm gonna eat NOW! I want to! Why isn't it six! Augh!

(Well, I could always eat early...)

Like that.

You've just described my diet ;-;

Not at all. I actually dread doing shots anymore, but I get scared to death thinking about running out of T, so I definitely feel a need for it. I just don't like the whole process anymore. Any time you get that urge, Arch, just remind yourself that excess testosterone turns into estrogen. That should be a sufficient deterrent.

Second!

I don't really crave it perhaps because I use it everyday!? I think maybe it could come for getting results quicker.

That would be a part of the reason why I chose the gel over the "once every 3 months" shot..
This way, I "can" do the whole T thing every day and be okay with it...

It's taking all my self control not to fetch it right now and start using it... because it's just "sitting" there.. at the pharmacy.. waiting for me.. *whines*

Same here.

When I first started doing injections, I found myself eager to do the next shot, happy at just the thought of it.  I think I was just wishing the weeks would hurry up so I could start seeing some results.  Injections have become routine now, nothing more than a 'huh, Sunday again already? *fill, stab, get on with the rest of the day*'
