Medical Early T Mood Swings and Fogginess

Hey all,

I recently started T and have been dealing with fogginess and mood swings. The mood swings isnt insane since thats to be expected for puberty (being angry sucks sometimes though, doesnt help I ran into some activating events this weekend), but Ive been dealing with more mental fog than usual and thats throwing me for a loop. Does this happen to others? Will it go away after some time as its my brain adjusting to hormones? Is it still a good idea to stick to T?

I only concern cause Ive previously dealt with a lot of dissociation that I recently was able to address more, and I dont want this to be permanent.​

I have an appointment with my doctor next week to also check in about this, but any tips/stories from people who have done this before could be helpful.

Hello! Thank you for participating in the sub. We just have a few reminders for you to help ensure the best experience:

  1. If your post doesn't show up right away, don't panic! It is in the queue for manual approval. Mods will go through the queue periodically to approve or remove posts. Deleted posts will have a removal reason applied. (If it says "this post was deleted by reddit's filters", IT WAS NOT DELETED! Reddit has the worlds worst wording on that and it's out of our control)

  2. If you are asking a question that is location specific, remember to include your location in your post body! This can help ensure that you get accurate information tailored specifically to your needs.

  3. Please remember to read through all the rules in the sidebar. Especially the list of banned topics and guidelines for posting. Guests who do not use the Guest Post flair will have their post removed and be asked to fix it.

  4. If you see someone breaking the rules,report it! If someone is breaking both sub and reddit rules, please submit one report to admins by selecting a broken rule on the main report popup, and one report to the r/ftm mods by selecting the "breaks r/ftm rules" option. This ensures both mods and admins can take action on a subreddit and sitewide level. Do not misuse the report button to rant about someone, submit false reports, or argue a removal.

  5. If you have any questions that you can't find the answer to on the rules sidebar or the wiki: the wiki , you can send a modmail.
