Title: well I find out if I start E today *sigh*
Post by: enigmaticrorschach on August 11, 2015, 02:47:12 PM
you know, I thought I'd be more excited but clearly I'm not all that yeppie. maybe its because of change in my mood since my T levels dropped more than half in the last 2 months on a relatively low dose. idk. I already don't feel like talking my Spiro.

Reduced T can certainly have affected that, but starting E was one of the best feelings ever for me, lol.  Don't not do it just because you're not super excited anymore.  If you're unsure though, try taking it anyway and then reassess how you feel in a couple weeks.  Nothing to say you can't stop it, but you won't know how good it makes you feel until you try.

It sounds like I'm pushing drugs or something, and I sorta am, but....yeah....  You'll probably be happy.  :P

There is a definite calming effect from losing T. When you get E the feeling is wonderful. I had a smile on my face for days.

I remember I was in a staff meeting with my boss. He turned to me and asked why I am smiling at him. I said I am happy. He knew what was happening and we discussed it later.

In time when you start to notice some of the better affects I'm sure the excitement will come for you. It's more a less the calm before all the fun begins when things get going. I know it was for me. Hugs
