I had issues for years before I was diagnosed with TRT, had to rule a lot of other things out. It is literally a life sentence for me.

Seeing people run TRT "for fun" is a total joke to me.
It certainly is a life sentence. I would rather have prescription regulated TRT if it ever came to it. I've had several of the symtoms low test provided many times before ever trying AAS and now that I have, I still experience it of course when coming off, but I feel ok until I'm ready for next cycle but I can see my test is "low" as in 300. Last couple recovery I actually went up a bit.

Now I drive it like I stole it.

I was diagnosed with low test, levels under 220 and free test was at the bottom so my doc said HRT was a good option, these days I've seen a lot of good benefits from running my first cycle and I feel like I did make the right decision, thing is it bothers me since maybe I could have worked on myself a little better before starting with it and jumping straight into HRT, maybe I could have gotten my nutrition in order, go to the gym, stop focusing on negative things in my life, but I couldn't do it, so I jumped on HRT test cyp 1ml a week and things have been going good so far. No regrets so far, maybe just wish I started this journey before things got so bad...
You make very good points. It can be difficult to make the final decision and it's very easy to not regret it, but maybe look at it at a different angle. Thanks for that. I certainly don't want to do something I am not ready for.
