@VyrCossont I'd been trying to find a different paper, which originally alerted me to the whole P->DHP->allopregnolone chain and its GABA-A modulation, but this goes into much more detail about the mental effects vs merely chemical!

Good grief! It wasn't my imagination. I knew after commencing progesterone that my nighttime anxieties - those lovely last minute worries as you try getting to sleep - were all but vanquished.

"endogenous estrogen and progesterone levels also may affect different cognitive processes such as decision-making, emotion recognition, consolidation of emotional memory, and fear extinction"

@masklayer **hug** Very good to hear. ^_^

@masklayer Yipe! Are you back home safely now?

@vy @cassdoodles Aaaah, too adorable! ^_^

@Qwyrdo Any chance a friend or neighbor could manage a ride, maybe?

@andi *scratches at your door*

@SuperCee Oh, so cool. =:D In just a few weeks, you may feel those first growth pangs.. !

@masklayer Eep! **hug** Take it easy, do - if you need to call in sick, by all means do so.

@spottyfox One of them is honest about seeking the destruction of humanity.

@jocelynk Colored pencil or graphite? =:)

@fountainofwonder It's possible that may have to be the way ahead, indeed. Sometimes, spouses /do/ come around after some weeks, but sometimes, there's no viable path remaining together - r/asktransgender has quite a few similar tales.

The common factor in every story, though, is that the need to transition never goes away. It can be repressed, but that's as far as it goes.

@zigg @moiety It's helpful. The HD25s work very nicely without, fine for use on the bus and train - the Studio3s are just better still, to the point I'll often wear them on the bus even if I'm not listening to anything. ^_^ Would like to try some others as well, for comparison - the Sony equivalent always stacks up well.

If Sennheiser came out with a wireless HD25-1 II.. that'd be really nice; but I'm definitely not going back to wired.

@cinnamonvector Could be amazing. 2018 saw a big shift for me, and I’m looking forward to building on that. ^_^ All the moreso if I wind up in Montréal or Mutton Vieux.

@mystic *hug!* So happy to hear it. Doofus. ^_^

@sinvega I laughed, and was reminded to swap my Estradot. ^_^;
