Long story short I have never been successful in dating in any shape or form and it’s starting to really affect my everyday life. I have been in therapy for over 7 years (recently quit) to no avail. I am already on antidepressants which thankfully dampens my libido a bit but I now I want it all the way gone.
So anyway, should I tell my family about this? Nothing will really change if I do, but a part of me is telling they ought to know, you know? But I am not sure if I want to.
Edit: I have decided I am not going to tell them.
Sorta. My psychiatrist has recommended me to try some different medications first. But he’s pretty open to the idea.
You told your psychiatrist you want to chemically castrate yourself and they had no objections?
Well the guy said he thought it was a little too soon to be talking about total castration, hence he recommended me some other medications first. (To which I have forgotten the names of now)
I guess I wouldn’t personally describe that as “open to the idea”
My unsolicited and non professional advice is to not get chemically castrated. Work on the things that make you feel unsuitable for a relationship rather than giving up on it. You’re young as hell still.
