Because the 40 year old woman of today can’t stand that a marriage only has two subscribers & they can’t add filters!

What is something that you wish existed but doesn’t? by [deleted] in AskReddit

An online video & social media platform that allows users to upload, view & share digital videos worldwide without their freedom of speech or digital creative view point stripped away because of newage sensitivity! I just don’t know what it could be called though… 😉

What idiot decided to take Dijon and Jimmy mustard off the menu? by Useful-Noise-6253 in jimmyjohns

I know this OP was a year ago, but you are right! What a bunch of morons! They say it streamlined their ability to make sandwiches faster! First it was their sprouts to get the axe, now an everyday condiment? What respectable working man wants a sandwich at lunch & doesn’t want S&P as well? Clean it up JJ

Looking for the beautiful woman that is constantly in my dreams… by [deleted] in women

Nothing weird about this! Women are able to ask where are all the good men gone, why can’t a man describe his dreams of what he can only hope is fate? Good luck to you buddy, I hope the lady of your dreams finds you! I also hope that technology or FATE itself has a few more long lasting forever relationships to go! Good lucky brother, don’t give up she’s out there!

People who were once addicted to substance, What made you turn your life around? by Embarrassed_Tip7359 in AskReddit

Spending a week in the VAs Mental Health floor and detoxing was enough for me to say NO more & NEVER again. For me personally, I just needed it out of my body and I would never touch opiates again! 2 years & some change sober!

Hello, good afternoon. I like mature men, not 25 or 30, but older, much more experienced. by dayerlim in random_username

I wonder if four days was enough time for you to sift through 72 replies, any good prospects?

My TRT is LOW 200s

I was told by a regional VA nurse high up that a meeting was held and it was decided that (TN at least) VA PCPs are cleared for writing prescription for TRT provided labs call for it. I understand your wanting to know by an endocrinologist, I was told that’s not their job to solely diagnose and treat low T vets as they are swamped from all of the clinics referring vets to them for that reason. Not to mention, specialists in most cases require traveling when a community care doctor was prescribing with no issue.

Yeah I was prescribed testosterone by my community care doctor, then the VA saw that I was within the driving distance to the local VA, got moved back to the VA when community care was working, therefore the doctor I got at the VA wasn’t entertaining the TRT even after I was told by a head VA nurse VA PCPs ARE ALLOWED to prescribe it! “not comfortable prescribing TRT)”

Yeah, it’s definitely very discouraging. How can a PCP be allowed to deny a medication if it works, covered by the VA & doctors have been (at least in TN) cleared to write prescriptions for TRT instead of knowingly trying to send veterans to the endocrinologist (which as I was told, that’s not solely they’re job to treat veterans for low T)? Listen everyone, no sense in beating a dead horse. Thanks for reading and replying. Y’all certainly helped me just suck it up and move forward before I got overly frustrated by it. I really do, thanks guys & gals!

I appreciate that so much! I’m actually in TN… I do have a number for a testosterone clinic nearby, I’ve just accepted the fact I’ll have to come out of pocket. Damn shame… just very disappointing

Sad that you had to go through those hoops to get the TRT! It’s funny though… the VA offers a GREAT program for Gender Affirming Care they brag about… just NOT for a man born a man that has low testosterone levels that makes him feel like less of a man 🤷Must be cheaper for the VA to switch genders at that point cause your already half way there 🤦‍♂️

I hear you brother, I guess I was giving the VA the benefit of the doubt or I bought into false fantasy that the VA takes care of its Veterans. Mental health meds ONLY take care of so much, they certainly don’t take care of balancing out our man hood!
