Hey!

I am a newly on low dose T thirty something person. I have seen a major change in my drive. Major, major, major. I am seeking advice from others just about coping with that.

I’ve always had what I think I is a higher drive. But with T I think of sex constantly. Like I can see someone I think is cute just in public I sometimes feel a physical reaction, start feeling warm and breathing differently or just having thoughts- the ways I used to only feel if I was about to kiss someone, I can feel now just looking at a stranger. It’s funny sometimes but I also feel like I got body snatched and I don’t know myself anymore?

I’ve been late to work so many times in the last 4 months ✨doing self care✨ which is like kind of funny but also bad because…. I need to be going to work on time.

I got back on the apps. I was talking to someone and made a plan for them to just come straight over because I really wanted to have sex. I think I never would’ve done something like that before T. I found out last minute because someone told me to google him that the person coming to my apartment was a registered predator, and it made me feel kind of ashamed, that I put myself in a situation where this could happen, because I wasn’t careful because I feel so physically crazed.

I feel out of control, I worry that I’ll become “the creepy guy.” Many of the more negative thoughts I had about men in the past, I think are kind of turning around on me now.

I am wondering how others have coped with being in the world as a person with a newly much greater drive!
