Absolutley Wonderous

[Scottie0007 (imported)]

Hi! Just some thoughts about what is going on here. It is absolutly amazing that here in Eunuch land we all have such a desire to rid ourselves of those nasty hormones. The extent to which i went through and others are going through shold truly amaze anyone! The battle to be in control of our sexuality and our emotional makeup needs to be noted and understood. The laws as they are need to be reviewed and changed. We must obtain the right to live with or without testosterone in our bodies!

I remeber when I had my testicles, I had a burnning desire to have sex and or masterbate all the time. My focus was always on sex sex sex. At times my arms and legs where on fire with lust and passion. In fact as a result of that and some creative thinking, I went and wrecked a marriage of 28 years. I coulnd'nt live without a release or a series of them in any one day. When I finally found this site, I watched and listened and decided that the only way to live would be by controlling my testosterone levels and live without them too. I have been living as a eunuch now for several months and all I know is I am finally at peace withthe process and myself. I no longer have sexual uncontollable anger and the desire to fuck anything that moves and is fuckable. I do have a strong desire to be loving and caring but I am not driven and it's all finally controlable.

I understand the quest that we are all on. I find it wonderous, I find it needed and I find a certain saddness of the lack of understanding form the medical community. I do find hope ... here in these pages with the friends I have made and the support that you can find here. What makes me concerned is the need to go to any length to get what we want. We and I include myself, can and do get wreckless and forget about our health and what can happen. This concerns me.

As a result (and I know I was lucky) I found an MD that helped me through all of this and then did my surgery. I was lucky and I am greatful. I can only hope and pray that we all should use some common sence and ask questions and get help before we rish our lives.

I also have found that before I did what I did, I used anti androgens and lived as a chemical castrate for 9 months to make sure it was what I wanted.

So please think think think before you act act act. Scottie

It definately would be nice if Doctors and other medical professionals would start taking us seriously.

I would definitely recommend that anyone seriously considering castration first at least give chemical castration a shot, to give a better idea if you can handle living without testicles.

Also try to learn as much as you can and learn from other peoples mistakes. Feel free to ask questions in here so that others can help answer them and make suggestions.

The best advice I can give is no matter what you try, make sure to have someone there, and don't hesitate to call 911 or drive to ER.

Thanks Scottie for your posting. I found the Eunuch Archive In January 2002 when I stated a course of Zoladex LA as part of my treatment for prostate cancer. I joined and have read postings regularly since then. They have been a great help.

I had a full year on implants of Zoladex LA. I liked the way that I felt as a chemical castrate.

I live in England. I am scheduled to be castrated on Monday September 22. This will be done by a urologist in a private hospital in southern England.

So, again, my thanks to everyone who makes the Eunuch Archive such an important source of help from men who have actually been there.

I must agree with everyone here that there definately needs to be more awareness in the medical community for persons seeking to reduce, or eliminate unwanted testosterone. I, for one, have been actively seeking a local doctor for castration (see my post at: http://www.eunuch.org/vbulletin/showthr ... eadid=3812 ).

I know many of you might feel scared to bring this subject up with your doctor for fear of ending up in a psychic ward. Being well informed may be a plus, but it doesn't guarantee you'll get what you want. I felt a little more confident talking about this with my doctor armed with a letter from my psychologist. After my last visit with my GP (who had consoled with the urologist), I walked away with the feeling that I had been "put off" by the both of them.

By no means is a safe, legal castraion by a medical professional going to be easily obtainable for a non-transgender everywhere in the near future, but if enough people make it known now, perhaps someday it could happen. I would like to think that my actions today, can make a difference one day for everyone. Not only for the non-transgendered, but for my transgendered sisters as well.
