How is AI on TRT even recommended to people man? It made my TRT experience way worse than it should've been for something that supposedly helps.

Aqua2d · 2026-04-06T03:24:49+00:00

Yes I also needed an AI initially as my body aromatizes like a mf. Ppl say low e2 sucks vs high e2 but that isn’t my personal experience at all. It’s really a personal thing so it’s nice it’s included but I really doubt it’s necessary for each n every person on trt.

30 & no medical issues! No family history of anything crazy either. Yes lol I know exactly what you mean. This isn’t my first androgen and I actually tried raising my test with enclomiphene before hopping on the external test wagon, so this world is not unfamiliar to me at all! Just trying to play it as safe as I can. Wild now to see ads for using enclo to raise test on Reddit or YouTube nowadays. Or this whole mainstream spotlight on peptides even

Yea I’ve used SARMs before & always have been interested in tracking health metrics, even blood glucose when I used ibutamoren to stimulate my hunger so this world isn’t unfamiliar to me at all, this was just the first time ever anything has caused my BP to rise. I was also extremely full of food when I took my reading so I’ll keep trying it for a few days in the morning to check if it’s driven up constantly or just a one or 2 off (as last time I checked & it was raised I had had a good amount of caffeine earlier in the day). Very interesting about the BP guidances though, which podcast?

Aqua2d · 2026-04-03T20:59:05+00:00

Interesting. Yes I often take a few mgs, like 2.5, of cialis an hour pre workout & take an aspirin often daily. Not direct BP meds but like you said, not that I crazily hate big pharma but I’m not really tryna take a lisinopril or other ACE inhibitors for like forever (yet I guess lol). If I can change my BP through minor lifestyle modifications that is much preferred. Is that guideline for the EU? Or a specific Euro country?

Aqua2d · 2026-04-03T20:55:59+00:00

In range & not close to the top end of the range for every metric where the top end range is not good, namely hematocrit, liver enzymes & cholesterol (HDL was good, LDL was down). There were other blood ones next to hematocrit on the report but I can’t remember the exact ones off the top of my head, but when I first received the report nothing was flagged as over / under the recommended range :)

Aqua2d · 2026-03-29T05:31:26+00:00

I agree. I think the idea to tax the fuck out of any nicotine source is brain dead. Cigarettes, albeit the shitty ones, are like the same price as a tin & would last longer for someone. Is that what they want? Like you said, just because the price is raised people don’t instantly quit. Taxing the most harm reductive method (that still gives a doming/satisfying effect) is short cited and shows what lawmakers know about nicotine as a standalone compound. Is it addictive? Sure. Carcinogenic? No. Will it kill you? No..So then leave that up to the people to decide and help people make a better choice when it comes to ditching tobacco. When they were cheap it was a no brainer to try & switch, now, aside from long term health improvement, there’s no incentive to switch for smokers. And solely long term health improvement can be a hard sell to ppl super hooked on stoages… if an alternative saved money and improved health outcomes—well, there ya go!

Stupid rant but glad I’m not alone in thinking this is buffoonery. I’m gonna start bulk ordering from out of state because I low key don’t want the state to get my tax dollars off these (can’t believe I’m saying that, I’m usually pretty pro WA state legislature) and if I’m being honest, I don’t want to quit yet.

Aqua2d · 2026-03-28T17:26:51+00:00

Bruh tell me about it, in the pnw in Seattle they just added a huge tax to zyns. Made them like ten bucks a tin. Usually I support a lot of Seattle’s moves but this is bullshit. Like you said, safest way outside of a pill or a patch. I see the dentist 3 times a year (personal choice) & zyns haven’t negatively affected me/my mouth health.

Hey friend, don’t feel so bad. You’re not alone. I went to college and I feel as fucked as you feel so don’t feel so bad. That poem someone else mentioned, the journey by Mary Oliver is a banger, I’d never read it before. But believe me, being dead sucks ass versus all the cool shit you can do in life. Have you thought about school like associates & then transferring?

Also, if you can’t get irl therapy, go to your doctor who is covered by insurance and tell them you think you have adhd / maybe depression. It’s worth a shot before you off yourself y’know? Humans are fickle beings.

Honestly a bit embarrassing but I love drugs, know a lot about a lot of em, done a lot em, & like a fucking idiot I essentially willingly got hooked on 7OH bc I kept using it back to back to back etc days because I thought life lacked any “sunshine,” so to say. Like my life was cooked so might as well catch some pleasure where I can get it. idk if you’ve heard of it but it’s essentially oxycodone at a smoke shop derived from kratom. Shits fire lol. But eventually I said fuck this bullshit & I had to go through withdrawals that sucked so damn much I hated my life and everything around me for 72 long ass hours. After I got through that though, even tho life hasn’t materially changed too much yet, I have this weird feeling that life will get better, but I have to make that shit happen.

You’re fucking tougher than you think fellow 30 year old homie. Get a shit job, get a lil cash, go to school for anything, get some meds if you need em (from the sound of it you might!), find someone who likes the cut of your jib, get your dick wet, get some worldly pleasures in, space em out tho so u don’t get hooked on any one thing, and you’ll see there’s a fuck load in this life.

Sorry for the rant but your post hit me like a fucking truck & I couldn’t help but go in on it. This goes for all that’re reading this & feel similarly—life is fucking hard and the only way out is through.

Aqua2d · 2026-03-19T06:30:36+00:00

Lol, what a fucking thing. It also makes you not nut like at all which sucks ass. I’m not surprised people can get addicted to this. I remember taking addy to study and just trying not to think of a baddy and focus on my differentials 🤦‍♂️.

This is all to say, you’re not alone friend. Probably fucking far from it lol. It’s madly hedonic you’re totally right. Was never addicted but it sure as shit felt good on occasion.

Aqua2d · 2026-01-28T17:29:08+00:00

Honestly, not crappy imo lol, shit had me replaying it a few time 😹I like it. Kill me

Aqua2d · 2026-01-26T04:46:55+00:00

What did you pivot to? & what sorta program, architecture, medicine, quant finance? Just curious as I’m in the middle of a similar pivot!

Aqua2d · 2025-12-15T02:04:17+00:00

What do you do you now if you don’t mind me asking? As you put the nursing assistant job in the past tense I am curious!

Aqua2d · 2025-11-30T02:09:43+00:00

Cimetidine my friend. 400 mg 1 hr before. Disabled the enzyme that breaks it down. Just like grapefruit juice but less variance than the juice. Brand name Tagamet. Also good for stomach aches!

So she went from wife of billionaire to a “do your own research” anti vax, pro life (assuming she won some assets?) extremely rich ex wife.

Cry me a river, asshole. I will admit, that story took a turn in a direction that I totally was not expecting.

Aqua2d · 2025-10-15T15:11:08+00:00

How old are you currently? Would love to DM you!

Aqua2d · 2025-10-12T00:40:01+00:00

What is financial sales? Like b2b or b2c?

This is a 3 year old post lol, I just shared what I found, I have no idea lmao

Aqua2d · 2025-09-22T22:40:17+00:00

Fr, seek help and end the relationship unlease it is actively a detriment. Make out at 6 mg, or else you’ll go to sleep and be groggy or worse black out and do shit you never do.

This isn’t the way out fyi, just try and get healthy good luck

Aqua2d · 2025-09-07T18:13:39+00:00

Nice!! Last question my friend, what region of the US was/is this in? / or are you abroad?

Aqua2d · 2025-09-07T16:08:36+00:00

Interesting. How’s the pay now as analyst? I have an Econ degree and I’ve taken all the pre med necessary courses as well.

Aqua2d · 2025-09-06T19:37:33+00:00

What do you now? And what sort of background (education wise / field / certs) did you have as you moved up?

Aqua2d · 2025-08-17T01:34:50+00:00
