I started T I don’t feel like talking about it with the people in my life because I’m scared they’ll think it’s the only thing I can’t talk or care about. I know that won’t happen but I’m cautious anyway. So here internet take my one week on t changes.
I am so tired. I know everyone talks about having more energy but I will sleep for like 10 hours, wake up still tired, and then fall asleep at noon. It’s crazy. I’ve never been a person who naps but now it’s all I want to do. Other than that there hasn’t been much. I’m pretty sure my acne is worse, and I might have a bit more mustache and stomach hair but. That’s it. Not much but still more than I expected to happen in a week. I’m pumped, but also exhausted. I might make this blog into a diary of sfw changes. Idk. I don’t really post anything anyway.
For the past few days some of the kids at my work have been telling my coworker (we’ll call him Sam for simplicity’s sake) has Sam disease but will not elaborate on what that means. Today they were at it again and told me that because I was standing next to him I caught it, and that only boys could catch it. My boss shut it down and made the kids apologize, but hearing this one kid validate my gender over and over made me so happy.

I'm fine with they/them but not frequently like you can call me they once a month as a treat
One Month on T!!!!!!
So I hit one month on t a couple days ago and changes are thus:
more body hair everywhere especially on my stomach and arms but I'm a little more fuzzy everywhere
enough facial hair that i felt the need to shave it and did with success
deeper voice but not that much deeper and not since about two to three weeks
I'm not exhausted anymore which is nice. I'm glad that effect has worn off
maybe a little hungrier
One more thing. I would like to put forth an unforeseen effect of t-gel specifically. I have not had a stable nigh time routine in years, and the fact that I'm taking t-gel every night and it's something I can't just skip has turned it into an actual routine for me. I brush my teeth and wash my face, then shower, moisturize my face, t-gel, and pajamas. I feel so much better in the evenings and it is so much easier to fall asleep it's insane.
