Hi All, (9/22/22)
Just finished my first full cycle at 6 clicks. It has been interesting. Also, I just returned from my Dr. appt where she reviewed my hormone panel and general labs.
First, regarding the first full cycle on 6 clicks. When I first switched to 6 clicks, I really felt it. After a day, there was morning wood for the first time in weeks, but that faded over the next couple of days. Motivation and mental clarity surged, then sagged and I spent yesterday fighting distraction like I had not for over a month. So...
Question for @Shannon:
Is it possible that this volume thing where 'different volumes speak to different levels of consciousness' needs to be varied every couple days or every cycle? I was again, initially impressed with the results, but they faded. Just as at the beginning when I was listening at full volume--great response first few days, then it tapered off. Perhaps I need to jump the volume up and down from time-to-time to hit 'all the levels of my subconsciousness'? If so how frequently and what would be the target levels? Multiple levels? Just low or high?
Second, my hormone doc was super-impressed with my results. She noted they were down substantially, but that they looked good to her EXCEPT the free T... and high SHBG. She wants me to take Nettle root to help drive down the SHBG and thus free up more of the T that is bound so I end up with a better T profile. @Shannon, what do you think of that? I'm inclined to go along with it because it isn't something that is directly affecting any of the key hormones by trying to create greater T, FSH or LH output. She is fairly open-minded and is excited to hear about my experiment. I asked for another hormone panel to take in about a month to 6 weeks. She's very interested to see how the subliminal works.
By the end of this last cycle (yesterday to be exact) my distraction/focus was shot. Worse than it had been for a month. Any thoughts on that? No real changes that I can imagine affecting it other than that feeling that the effects of the sub were tapering down over the course of the cycle.
Tonight I break from the sub and tomorrow is 'date night' so we'll see how well I function this time around. The break from the T shots, etc. has made me more relaxed going without the exogenous chemicals. I would get really nervous about performing without my T, etc. but I'm not performing as well in general, BUT I am still performing adequately to my wife's delight.
Cheers,
RonO
