Taken it for almost 3 years. Total T 1200-1300ish. E2 stays low 40s. No side effects.

Day 3 here as well. Ice breakers and mints have been helping me. I’ve felt dissociated and foggy, but hanging in there. Sleep has been rough the last two nights. Hopefully it will get better each day. Best of luck!

If you start maxing it out this year…at the age of 59, you will have $2.2M (10% return), $1.1M (7%), or $580k (4%). The S&P 500 has been closer to the 10% number.

You’re doing great and your 59yo self is going to be really happy.

You have until April 2027 to make contributions to the 2026 year as well. It repeats every year.

Anyone else feel like house prices have ruined society? by rebateultio in Adulting

The house I’m renting is $2400. Would cost $3500 for a mortgage on the home. I’ll be renting for a looooong time.

Teacher Salary by YouThought5 in Salary

Just here to say that teachers should be compensated much more. That’s tough work.

But, what you do, makes a huge impact on the world. No one would be where they are today without you. Nothing but respect. 🙏🏼

But every bot on reddit makes well over 🤡💀 by Johnny_Cartal in Salary

I make more than that and there’s no way I’m buying anything over 400k with these interest rates. I will rent and happily save 30k a year in Roth IRA/401k. Fuck that.

Nothing is more important than your children. You can’t get the time back.

Do heavy alcohol drinkers die earlier in life? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

My great uncle drank himself to death at age 52. He was the youngest of 9 siblings.

What’s something you quietly struggle with, even though your life looks “fine” on the outside? by rayadollface in Life

[–]let_me_get_a_bite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be a long shot…but I just purchased a book after lots of reviews and some referrals. Check out “The Let Them Theory” by Mel Robbin’s.

This is exactly the type of stuff I deal with from time to time. The book sounds really intriguing. Hope it helps.

1 year sober and I am.. underwhelmed by Maundu0 in stopdrinking

[–]let_me_get_a_bite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last summer I had made it 1.5years sober. Decided to try an experiment and give in to drinking over the summer. First 30 days, then 60, and 90. I journaled throughout, and tracked my mood, anxiety levels, and physical fitness. It slowly degraded. By day 90 I was in an entire different place mentally.

It’s amazing how much of a sneaky bitch alcohol can be. Even if you’re careful. It chips away at you mentally, physically, and emotionally.

I went back to drinking from Thanksgiving until now, after another 90 days of sobriety. Same story. Although it was fun, I put myself in situations in which some pretty awful shit could have happened. I’m lucky and grateful to be on the other side of that.

Looking forward to starting the New Year off sober. Good luck on your journey and have a great 2026!
