T = Testosterone
I've been on T for around 7 weeks now. It seems surreal. Things are changing a little, but slowly. There are a few things I wish were happening faster. I'd love a deeper voice and a prominent Adam's apple and some more hair on my legs. I'm guessing though that my PCOS and previous testosterone level is making the progression now a little slower.
Things I have noticed are that my voice has dropped a little. (I'm still working on a way to post the voice recordings I've done.) My facial hair is growing in faster. I can shave in the morning and have stubble by bed. Though I can go 3 days and still just have a 5 o'clock shadow. :)
I have also had an acne flair up from the increase in hormones. Some weeks are worse than others. But I'm not vain enough to freak out yet. :)
I've also noticed some emotional changes. Slight, and maybe not noticeable to others, but to me for sure. I'm finding it easier to control my depression, which is HUGE for me. I used to feel myself dropping into my depression and the only way to come out of it was to take my meds. Recently, I've been spreading out my medication, and not taking it every day and still feeling up. I've also been able to do things and be active to get me out of some of my bigger spirals into depression. I don't mean that I haven't been sadden or overwhelmed by things, but I always know what is making me feel bad in those situations. With my depression I get sad, anxious and an irritable and cannot tell anyone what triggered it. I am glad to be moving past those moments.
A = ADD
Oh my do I have ADD! :) You wouldn't believe how easily it is for me to get distracted. LOL And I've had so much on my mind lately.
I've really been looking at where my life is right now, and where I want it to be. I know its time to make the changes that I want to happen.
Sorry, I'm being vague right now, but I've got so much on my mind and so many things that may or may not happen, I don't want to crack those eggs till the pan is hot, if you catch my drift. :)
