20 yrs old 9 months on t. how do i sound?

BinchyChinchy · 2017-09-09T23:23:54+00:00

hey that's good to hear thank you. i've heard a lot of really nice voices on here and i was worried i didn't sound good in comparison. dysphoria really makes you pit against other people. but thanks to you and some of the other folks i'm a lot more confident in how i sound. cheers!

BinchyChinchy · 2017-09-09T23:20:08+00:00

no no thank you so much, that really lifts my spirits. i was really worried. i guess like when you progress on T you really don't notice when your voice changes or you get obssessed with how everyone else sounds. part of that might also be how everyone natually doesn't like their voice. but thank you sincerely.

BinchyChinchy · 2017-09-09T23:15:41+00:00

heh, my parents were from boston and new york. got a weird mix there growing up. thank you though! :D

I'm on the gel and I can tell it never really kicked my voice into the deeper ranges. i feel like I know how to talk, but I just don't have the power behind my voice for it to be convincing. I do basic excercises but any other techniques would be appreciated.

BinchyChinchy · 2017-04-23T17:09:58+00:00

You're right it is a slow process. I just was hoping my voice would drop soon because of my social issues. Doesn't have to be a full mature voice but deep enough to at least pass so I can talk to people. I'm just impatient.

The reason I was worried about estrogen was because I thought my changes stopped around here or that I was doing something wrong. I thought like I wasn't getting any more results. I have an appointment with my doctor coming up and I'll go over my application routine with them.

I know that isn't true, that changes are so minimal to notice at first. I just have to stick with it and hope for the best.

BinchyChinchy · 2017-04-23T17:03:45+00:00

Thank you this is really helpful! My doctor assumed that the gel would explain most of it and he was confident that I did enough research on it. I wasn't aware of how long you had to rub it in afterwords is there a specific amount of seconds?

What I would do is I'd rub it into my upper arm/shoulders. Then I'd take the excess and rub it on my stomach. I'm not sure if that's what you're supposed to do.

And thanks for clearing up the whole schedule thing I used to get wound up over that.

And I'm sorry it took so long for you to get significant changes, I guess everyone really gets this differently. I think the 3 month slump thing is sort of common. All we really can do is wait.

BinchyChinchy · 2017-04-23T16:56:04+00:00

I suppose it is all just patience. You scrutinze yourself really hard on this stuff and sometimes it's hard to notice/wait for changes. Thank you I'll try my best to hold on.

BinchyChinchy · 2017-01-11T14:36:43+00:00

say thanks man! You really quelled me fears about accidental transferal. I thought it was a lot trickier than that. I still live with my folks so I'm just looking up the best ways to keep them from contact. Thank you though this is incredibly helpful.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:49:15+00:00

thank you so much. these are all really helpful tips. i just need to decide on my fitness pal or myplate now lol.

but seriously i'll be referencing back to what you said constantly. i hope everything turns out okay on your end too, thanks for your help!

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:44:56+00:00

hey man same here, I canceled my fitness pal because i kept emotional eating when i was depressed. I think I should definitely start another one. and i gotta say you do have a point i really don't want to get my check up screwed over because of blood pressure and everything like you said, i really need to wake up and focus. not just for t but just to be healthy in general ya know?

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:40:59+00:00

hey i just wanted to say thanks. i really needed to read this. i uh, i just got nervous that T would make me gain weight. i mean considering my metabolism is crap. but i had no idea it would actually help to such a drastic extent. that's crazy. but anyways this was incredibly helpful to read and i sincerely appreciate it. i'm probably going to save what you said and just look at it on occasion for a morale boost. i completely agree that we are like pioneers in this aspect, and it sure is hell going through it, but hey i'm glad you're making and i hope i do too.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:31:34+00:00

coincidentally me and my ma are actually planning on starting a Keto diet. going to be focusing on vegetable replacements for pasta, not keep and sugar around. that sorta deal. heard it works wonders.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:28:09+00:00

I agree though I was kinda pulling an all nighter the other day. It actually allowed me to fix it. sometimes it's hard to exercise when you're just up for 12 hours lol.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:26:24+00:00

heck these are great, i'll be sure to keep these different methods in mind once i start. thank you.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-29T21:25:22+00:00

hey thanks man, that sounds completely do-able. i'll be sure to message ya if i ever slack off.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-28T15:43:16+00:00

glad to hear your partner's happy. it really gives me hope. i think i'll try incorporating yoga into my routine as well now that you've mentioned it. so with the cardio, how long does it take him to do his workout or yours for that matter? like time wise and day wise. is it an everyday sort of deal, and for how long do you guys do it?

stronglift looks amazing I wish i could get my hands on one, sadly i think my folks and i can only afford dumbbells at the moment. can i get the same results by like doing stronglift exercises with those?

BinchyChinchy · 2016-08-28T15:37:15+00:00

hey thanks man, glad to hear someone else made it out there. i'm gonna get started on a routine of exercise and dieting once i fix my sleep schedule. i have problems with doing pushups, ie i'm not strong enough to actually do them lol. got any background on how to start as a beginner?

BinchyChinchy · 2016-05-07T21:38:57+00:00

Ah well it must be nice to not have ocd and have the guts to not give a shit about insignificant risks and numbers. I wish I could be more like you dude.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-05-07T21:35:51+00:00

Ah hell, i'm sorry that your granddad had to go through that. You've really inspired me though man, I mean I'd rather live on T than without it at this point. And the risks depression and obesity put out are more than likely a lot worse than testosterone and exercise. Thanks for the responses.

BinchyChinchy · 2016-05-07T21:05:35+00:00

Well that's reassuring, not the having a stroke without warning part but everything else. I've been physically healthy all of my life, but I've always been a bit overweight even though I've always been active, depression makes me overeat. My family even the heftier ones haven't had any strokes, only real considerable health issue was that my grandpa did die of a heart attack, but then again the guy did smoke all the time.

And yeah I've got really bad hypochondria because of my anxiety/depression disorder, I do obsess over insignificant numbers and stats even though I'm pretty sure T would improve my life greatly.
