My assumption is that whatever you take is what she would get, and that you've looked into the safety side properly...which makes the risk very low. Anything she doesn't already know about side effects and possible reactions, you can talk her through. Dating a dummy seems unlikely, so trust her - she's grown, she does or will understand the risks, and the decision is hers to make. Plus you'll get bonus relationship points!
Withhold it and leave her to handle her own transactions from jump, and you may also collect negative relationship points
Yes, identical to what I use, except that by now the filters and the extra sterile cartridges are fully stocked. Me, I couldn't wait around for the filters and the nice cartridges, so for my first pen I grabbed the Alibaba cartridge and filled unfiltered. She gets the filtered, nice cartridge VIP treatment. Looks like I'm the dummy in this relationship
Yeah, that one you misread. I'd genuinely been hoping she would take an interest, and now that she has, I'm a bit scared — that is the whole of it. A nice journey together is how I see it, same as you said. Cravings and food thoughts are a real struggle for her, and the more she wants to do something about them, the happier I am.
UGH...100ct steam sterilized vials just arrived from Temu...and naturally they turn up UNsterilized. So now I have to dig out the pressure cooker given to me as a wedding gift 10+ years ago, work out how to operate it, and autoclave these GD unsterilized cartridges.
@JohannesSweden77 Even when I was only talking about it at the start, my wife was all in favor. Two vials get reconstituted at once usually, one for each of us, and they've been the same. Now that different doses come into play starting this morning, the vials will need our names on them if the concentrations differ. I fill her syringe, and blast her. Not the good way. Whatever I decide is fine by her. No side effects for her either, and currently on 10mg.
Keep her start simple — Reta or Tirz, nothing from some wild stack.
yes, that was my thinking. Reta I do have, but no experience with it and neither the pep itself nor the vials in my fridge have been tried, so the safe bet is tirz. Other stuff can come later once she gets comfortable. No stacks for now.

Asked by my wife for some peptide, ill pin her ASAP no questions asked — though no kind of peptide is needed on her end right now, and getting interested in the "longevity", mitochondria or mental peptides isn't something I see happening. GHK-Cu is about the only one that could tempt her
Edibles are not a peptide, pretty sure haha.JohannesSweden77 said:
Yes for sure. That is just how I felt. Is there a good pep for anxiety?

Oh jeez that one hadn't even crossed my mind. Those she will have to discover on her own.
For my part, Selank is a favorite. Specifically, N-Acetyl Selank Amidate. Intranasally is how a fair amount of people use it; in my own case, a subcutaneous dose 4-5x a week delivers an effect that is calming (but not sleepy) most of the time.JohannesSweden77 said:

Very true...we shall see! March is when peps began for me... but supplements I take that I suggested have definitely been added by him, plus the whole ivermectin rabbithole, too. Time will tell, I suppose. Needles are what I think keeps him at bay (for now...)
Oh, for a male specimen that is nowhere near enough time. Our side is where he seems headed, judging by this. Not the dark side but the gray. How easy needles are to get used to will become clear to him. Getting past that is what delayed my own start. Scary needles turn out to cause no fright at all — needles to say. Pun intended.laansasa said:

I agree, only a matter of time. Super expensive oral NAD and a ton of other supplements are what he takes. The great results I have gotten are visible to him, so intrigued he must be. If and when he bites the bullet, I shall report back!JohannesSweden77 said:

Be sure to do that, and I'll do the same for my better half. He'll soon be even betterlaansasa said:

Spot flipping on flashbulb. Particularly true of some of the doctors in Florida, given the population older than me that mostly fills their practice.
Sharing that with her is what I bet would make things go more smoothly in your household. "You being interested makes me happy, and helping you is what I want, but fear is what comes up for me first, and it makes me prickly and distant. Your wanting to do this isn't what annoys me. Being unable to keep you safe is what I'm afraid of."JohannesSweden77 said:

Her bringing it up a lot probably comes from you putting her off rather than having a straightforward conversation about it. An honest talk with her and no reason to keep bringing it up will remain : )JohannesSweden77 said:

Sorry if I misread you — I took it that she was pestering and annoying you for access to the peps you worked hard for, and that sharing the stash was the last thing you wanted!JohannesSweden77 said:

Now I get it: the real driver is fear for her safety, which is why the juice is being held back.

Like Housecat says, the supply is your own, filtered and recon'd, so that side of things brings peace of mind. On reactions and the rest of it, you'll never know unless she tries — comparable to the leap of faith you took back when you started out.
The whole community is here for one reason: to research, and in the end to better the situations we are in.
That was simply my affectionate way of putting it that her interest is real now and it comes up constantly. The annoying part was a joke. Such a funny guy, me
Late to this story is what I am, but watching you grow personally through it has been so wholesome : )
Thank goodness we aren't stuck concealing them inside a butter container at the rear of the fridge the way others do. I also recall a different tale about going to see the in-laws and being unsure how to account for them, and a person proposed claiming a dog bite and that the injections were for rabies!JohannesSweden77 said:

Yeah, that's wild. That said, I haven't shared with everyone that I've moved over to gray. As far as they know, I'm still on the prescribed stuff. Not their concern anyway. So I do have to "hide" the supply and accessories.laansasa said:

There might be a small language gap at play, but I'm picking up a bit of insecurity in this. Not a criticism — thoughts like that do sneak in sometimes, don't they?
You went ahead and blasted first timer gray, with little to no safety protocols. Now you say you follow them. If it's the same as yours, why wouldn't the safety worry apply to both of you?JohannesSweden77 said:
