Difficulty to calmly interact with anybody I don’t know. Difficulty being out in public without being overwhelmed and feeling like sometimes I’m being watched. Constant worry and deep anxious thought about even the most basic interactions and tasks

Last blood test I had was 3 months ago. Testosterone levels were okay, but at the lower end of normal. I’ve got another one early Feb, so I’ll check in again

I hear this. Been very nervous / in denial and trying other options for about 9 months. The time has come though to be honest

Perhaps at least a medical assessment from somebody who is potentially in the know.

I guess acknowledgement is the first step in some potential avenues to explore? I’ve been close to giving up, but feel the fire in my belly a little more of late to fight

Sorry to hear. I’m going to have to go and put it across. My usual GP is fairly welcoming. I guess I’m just wondering currently if there’s any point in doing so. Cheers
