How about some of the thoughs from fairly recent experiences. I am very near the first anniversery of my casatration.
in general, this change has been good--and what I expected. There were months of hot flashes(a hellish time). There has been some serious depression. There is continuing concern about energy level and muscle tone.
But, the fact is, I made this choice. It is not reversible and I live with it.
And I am quite happy with it. I like having control in my life. I like knowing that I am not subject to the outbursts and sexual drive I experienced most of my life.
Hell, I even like the looks I get in the locker room/showers at the gym.
My partner is happy. Our sexual cadence is set by my partner--not my own desires (largely gone now). That is different--but I have learned to like that.
Any other fairly new guys care to share experiences?
One year club?

Re: One year club?
Yes, I was chemically castrated for a year first and I also had the hot flashes and night sweats, weight gain, body hair loss and decided yes to be castrated. September 6th I made it permanent with no regrets. I also have had depressions and joined the gym, I try to hide the fact that I dont have any balls hanging there but I am sure that some one in time will see me. Oh well.
I guess most of all I like the new me, without a sex drive I have taken time to smell the flowers. I think I am a nicer person all the way around. Now if I can learn to control my road rage I will be there.
