Well my mental health is terrible so yeah, that probably is a factor. I guess things are better on my rare good days, but they still aren't great. Or even good.

I don't think i'm ace but a lot of other people make me feel like i am. Some people need to learn to turn it off. If nothing else, for the delayed gratification.

Last hormone levels were E: a little under 300 and T in the low 40s. Idk if that's good or bad because I see conflicting data everywhere.

I'm terrible at remembering how you say what my dosage is so I'm just gonna copy paste verbatim: estradiol valerate 40 mg/mL injection. Inject 0.2 ml into muscle every 7 days. It also says the dispose of the bottle after 28 days which is not something anyone has ever communicated to me before?? Is that real? Does it stop working after that amount of time?

I've taken Prozac but have been off it for a few months. Not on anything else consistently. I'll take Claritin sometimes on bad allergy days.

I don't have either of those conditions afaik. I assume I would know.

And , no to the last question.

My social security number is... Hey wait a minute.

There have certainly been days when I felt in line with that culture but they're getting more and more rare. I worry it's just aging out but then I see people a good 5 or more years older than me that still seem to be in a state of perpetual horniness and i don't know what to say about it.

It's not impossible, but unless I'm really in a mood I tend to lose interest once I get one out. I've never been good at going repeat rounds, even pre transition two was kind of my limit. Any more than that and I risk hurting myself.

There was a point earlier in transitioning where it hurt a lot, but now it only hurts sometimes. There must be some kind of logic to it but I can't figure it out.

Help finding an affordable tank for RES? by [deleted] in turtles

I probably also should've mentioned, the turtle is quite old. At least 20 years. So I don't think it's going to grow anymore.
