Here's @SpectrumAesthetics3 1yr ago today.

Wanted to be shredded then as badly as ever, but it was a 3-yr roller coaster with various gradations of bloatedness

What a disaster

What a complete waste of time at uni

What a complete downer knowing you are unlovable to girls without the power to change it despite your best intentions or efforts

To go out on campus or in town knowing that making great serendipitous memories only happens if you are worthy, to feel the nihilist reality of existence when unattractive

The above was with bonesmashing swelling too, so would have been even worse and less defined without that

Was hell on earth before I found new life in GLPs, which finally made it physiologically and psychologically possible to get leaner than ever before and to keep it

And this is why I’m often not bothering myself with getting out in the world rn while still in the HTN-range, waiting until true full chadlite. Absolute extreme looks outlier or just forget it. Since I come from a background where there was IMO zero benefit to existing in the world, where the “benefits” of walking around campus were just being invisible and unimportant and knowing I wasn’t a fraction of the person I wanted to be and yet wanting so badly to ascend.

So, there’s the needed help that GLPs provided and then that MAOI treatment does as well for my poor baseline neurochemistry, which also helps (this is a more recent thing I started though).

But then there’s still challenges, there’s waking up in the middle of the night despite sleeping pill use that reduces cognition and energy the next day without fully solving sleep on prolonged PSMF, and then there’s those hunger periods that hit hard sometimes.

But id rather starve through it all since any heaven on earth life quality that you can experience as a guy is predicated on having starved enough to become extreme-outlier chiseled and then maintain it forever.

So now that I have the tools to mentally and physically enable leanness, even though the process is still not exactly a picnic in the park on a nice sunny day, I am willing to suffer whatever it fucking takes to redeem the lost years, failed use of uni years, the longest periods of not meeting the job qualifications for the role of dating pretty girls.

So I’m going to use every anti-aging thing conceivable to preserve a young look and then every softmaxx and hardmaxx and fraud to become the most I can possibly be in the present. Since I’ve experienced non-existence, I’ve been the sad fuck in the first picture, and I will ruthlessly do anything it takes to get absolutely as far away from that as possible and to redeem myself.

All of this is why I can’t relate to anyone not on a sub-1000cal PSMF diet until they become Jordan Barrett. I think some people just don’t cognize how much better things could be

If you are not dying to ascend, if you would not give anything to look like the bottom pics and ideally better vs the top pic, then you are LDARing, and tremendous ascension isn’t possible for you. Since this whole business of PSMF to get more carved instead of a complacent pretty lean or even less, and then maintenance of ur Barrett face thereafter, this business of using the hammer properly 2 and often ideally 3 times per day, and the ordeal of determining what your limitations are that you can’t fix thru other things and then narrowing down your list of hardmaxxes and calling places and setting up consults and saving money and maybe flying overseas for a better value surgery, this isn’t really an “easy” business.

I can only relate w/ those who are as extreme as me ATP. This is the spirit you need to make this stuff work. There’s no other way I could live. I am giving this every fiber of my fucking being and would rather die on the operating table during an elective procedure than die the perpetual death of the "life" I had before

It's funny to start off doubting it as most of us do (which I why I quit multiple times) and then to go from flat cheekbone area even when lean to overdeveloped ones that are actually an aesthetic problem and negatively impact some ratios and harmony haha

To go from flat cheekbones to now having to morph what cheekbone shaving would look like and looking into that possibility

Are you actively bonesmashing now?

I am doing parnate. Nardil iirc has fatigue issues and marplan wasn't strong enough or something. I think this will be very good and already has raised my baseline a lot despite things like wrecked sleep sometimes and the PSMF deal in general. Also haven't gone to the gym in a month as I adjust to BP issues, which happens in the first weeks. But I think it will be a life-changer overall

I used to be bluepilled and regurgitate the stupid fucking nonsense like "people just need to go outside, get off screens" etc. – as though we would have ppl who are disadvantaged in face, eye color, height, clavicle width, intelligence, whatever, but then somehow we all would naturally have the capacity to have high dopamine/serotonin and to thrive without pharmacological fixes

What a complete downer knowing you are unlovable to girls without the power to change it despite your best intentions or efforts

To go out on campus or in town knowing that making great serendipitous memories only happens if you are worthy, to feel the nihilist reality of existence when unattractive

The above was with bonesmashing swelling too, so would have been even worse and less defined without that

Was hell on earth before I found new life in GLPs, which finally made it physiologically and psychologically possible to get leaner than ever before and to keep it

And this is why I’m often not bothering myself with getting out in the world rn while still in the HTN-range, waiting until true full chadlite. Absolute extreme looks outlier or just forget it. Since I come from a background where there was IMO zero benefit to existing in the world, where the “benefits” of walking around campus were just being invisible and unimportant and knowing I wasn’t a fraction of the person I wanted to be and yet wanting so badly to ascend.

So, there’s the needed help that GLPs provided and then that MAOI treatment does as well for my poor baseline neurochemistry, which also helps (this is a more recent thing I started though).

But then there’s still challenges, there’s waking up in the middle of the night despite sleeping pill use that reduces cognition and energy the next day without fully solving sleep on prolonged PSMF, and then there’s those hunger periods that hit hard sometimes.

But id rather starve through it all since any heaven on earth life quality that you can experience as a guy is predicated on having starved enough to become extreme-outlier chiseled and then maintain it forever.

So now that I have the tools to mentally and physically enable leanness, even though the process is still not exactly a picnic in the park on a nice sunny day, I am willing to suffer whatever it fucking takes to redeem the lost years, failed use of uni years, the longest periods of not meeting the job qualifications for the role of dating pretty girls.

So I’m going to use every anti-aging thing conceivable to preserve a young look and then every softmaxx and hardmaxx and fraud to become the most I can possibly be in the present. Since I’ve experienced non-existence, I’ve been the sad fuck in the first picture, and I will ruthlessly do anything it takes to get absolutely as far away from that as possible and to redeem myself.

All of this is why I can’t relate to anyone not on a sub-1000cal PSMF diet until they become Jordan Barrett. I think some people just don’t cognize how much better things could be

If you are not dying to ascend, if you would not give anything to look like the bottom pics and ideally better vs the top pic, then you are LDARing, and tremendous ascension isn’t possible for you. Since this whole business of PSMF to get more carved instead of a complacent pretty lean or even less, and then maintenance of ur Barrett face thereafter, this business of using the hammer properly 2 and often ideally 3 times per day, and the ordeal of determining what your limitations are that you can’t fix thru other things and then narrowing down your list of hardmaxxes and calling places and setting up consults and saving money and maybe flying overseas for a better value surgery, this isn’t really an “easy” business.

Ghk-cu injectable 3.5ish mg daily perpetually

Ghk-cu topical nightly, about 10mg

All these peptides I just ordered (epithalon for use twice a year, ss-31 or something)

Topical glutathione serum I have to DIY since you can't find it, and injectable glutathione in upcoming peptides order

Tretinoin just never worked well with my skin, so I'm likely dropping it for good

Low-inflammation diet perpetually for sure

Not getting sun on the face anymore (works well since light skin fits my high contrast look and looks better than tan, and I don't have to bother frauding with tanning drops or wtv)

Will prob add back astaxanthin (is a pricy supplement and another $1 per day) at some point and see about any other supplements

Botox to forehead muscles to stop wrinkles from tensing from being there or getting worse, and also to the LLSAN muscle to sides of nose since I was tensing it up and creating naso folds, relaxing that as well

I should add, full LHR for face and neck, many session in, has been an incredible max for skin quality and youthfullness as well, and no more inconvenience trying to shave as hard as possible and still having an uneven shadow never getting fully shaven

Taz is a lot better for elevating skin quality but at the same time your skin becomes so smooth (the stratum corneum so thinned) that applying things like moisturizer or sunscreen leaves a glowing sheen. I think even without having anything on and using taz you are still left with a retinoid glow but in my case it has had people ask me what I’ve been doing to my skin which is not always a good thing depending on the situation.

Sounds awesome
Tret I just never seemed to acclimate to despite patience, and I still have to factor in the skin looking worse the day after, yet never got to the glass skin steady state. Whatsoever, but when I stop it and just have ghk and my topicals, then it’s consistent clear glowing smooth skin
Does Taz have a bad adaptation period though etc, what about if already on tret?
Since the one thing making me guilt over stoping until recently is how the retinol pathway for anti aging is its own thing and is then not used at all
I also have the “weaker retinol alternative” backuchiol which id used some before and seems way gentler. Not sure if you know anything about it

Appreciate your insights, this has been a male skincare question for me and is high value

Less irritating than Tret by far. I switched to it without waiting. Although I haven’t had big issues with Tret you could stand to be cautious. Personally I went from 0.05% Tret straight to 0.1% no problem. Just be prepared. The glow might honestly be too much as I’ve had men and women comment on it so had to find ways of diminishing it.

If someone got dryness and dullness from tret bc their barrier couldn’t handle it or whatever, do you really think they could end up with a glow from Taz?
Because even with tret there’s that known pic circulating like “what you think the glass skin will look like vs reality”, so even for tret it is supposed to be a thing
It seems fantastic that one could not have aesthetic benefit from one and then get the full glow possibility from the other

Also can you just share a cropped pic of you that shows this glow? Or less ideally just a representative pic example from online? It’s so interesting that this can actually go too far. But we kinda need the anti aging benefit of it regardless

I’m glad you are motivated and pushing through everything.

I wish I was still like that tbh, but I’m not that crazy about it anymore. Having a gf made me a bit complacent.

When I go out and see new pretty girls and maybe talk to one, I get the spark back. But once I’m home again it’s lost again, since looking even better wouldn’t change the fact that I can never be with another girl.

Tazarotene is a lot more selective than Tret and should be less irritating. I still recommend taking it slow when utilizing a new product as with anything. I can show you in DMs?

Methylphenidate, Lisdexamfetamine, Dexamfetamine. Atomoxetin, Moclobemide, Pregabalin, Baclofen, Propranolol, Phenelzine, Testosterone

Childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, etc. --> many years stolen by being mentally ill

Insights – Fuck SSRIS/SNRIS (& in my case Amphs)
MAOIs and TRT are law

yeah it's funny this Dr. said "I'll refill the maoi but lemme refer u to a psych since these are outdated etc.", I'm like yeah but parnate is the gold standard for treatment resistant anhedonia and has been way better than anything else, let alone the self-medication with coffee or energy drinks

They're fucking retarded and I'm certain something shady is going on
Just because scientists found out about SSRIS/SNRIS at some point doesn't make MAOIs outdated – the other classes are also inferior for the majority of people. Excluding MAOIs completely screams lobbiysm or other shady shit, Idc what anyone else says. MAOIs are masterclass meds

Just because scientists found out about SSRIS/SNRIS at some point doesn't make MAOIs outdated – the other classes are also inferior for the majority of people. Excluding MAOIs completely screams lobbiysm or other shady shit, Idc what anyone else says. MAOIs are masterclass meds
Yeah this stuff has to be about money somehow, SSRIs being huge drugs, yet you think its the same generic manufacturers or brand name companies that have both, idk
then there's the conspiracy-leaning side like "they push SSRIs to have us docile and complacent" etc.

My bad if u already liked or saw my post a few mins ago, but based on our common experiences I think you will resonate hard

Here's @SpectrumAesthetics3 1yr ago today.

Wanted to be shredded then as badly as ever, but it was a 3-yr roller coaster with various gradations of bloatedness

What a disaster

What a complete waste of time at uni

What a complete downer knowing you are unlovable to girls without the power to change it despite your best intentions or efforts

To go out on campus or in town knowing that making great serendipitous memories only happens if you are worthy, to feel the nihilist reality of existence when unattractive

The above was with bonesmashing swelling too, so would have been even worse and less defined without that

Was hell on earth before I found new life in GLPs, which finally made it physiologically and psychologically possible to get leaner than ever before and to keep it

And this is why I’m often not bothering myself with getting out in the world rn while still in the HTN-range, waiting until true full chadlite. Absolute extreme looks outlier or just forget it. Since I come from a background where there was IMO zero benefit to existing in the world, where the “benefits” of walking around campus were just being invisible and unimportant and knowing I wasn’t a fraction of the person I wanted to be and yet wanting so badly to ascend.

So, there’s the needed help that GLPs provided and then that MAOI treatment does as well for my poor baseline neurochemistry, which also helps (this is a more recent thing I started though).

But then there’s still challenges, there’s waking up in the middle of the night despite sleeping pill use that reduces cognition and energy the next day without fully solving sleep on prolonged PSMF, and then there’s those hunger periods that hit hard sometimes.

But id rather starve through it all since any heaven on earth life quality that you can experience as a guy is predicated on having starved enough to become extreme-outlier chiseled and then maintain it forever.

So now that I have the tools to mentally and physically enable leanness, even though the process is still not exactly a picnic in the park on a nice sunny day, I am willing to suffer whatever it fucking takes to redeem the lost years, failed use of uni years, the longest periods of not meeting the job qualifications for the role of dating pretty girls.

So I’m going to use every anti-aging thing conceivable to preserve a young look and then every softmaxx and hardmaxx and fraud to become the most I can possibly be in the present. Since I’ve experienced non-existence, I’ve been the sad fuck in the first picture, and I will ruthlessly do anything it takes to get absolutely as far away from that as possible and to redeem myself.

All of this is why I can’t relate to anyone not on a sub-1000cal PSMF diet until they become Jordan Barrett. I think some people just don’t cognize how much better things could be

If you are not dying to ascend, if you would not give anything to look like the bottom pics and ideally better vs the top pic, then you are LDARing, and tremendous ascension isn’t possible for you. Since this whole business of PSMF to get more carved instead of a complacent pretty lean or even less, and then maintenance of ur Barrett face thereafter, this business of using the hammer properly 2 and often ideally 3 times per day, and the ordeal of determining what your limitations are that you can’t fix thru other things and then narrowing down your list of hardmaxxes and calling places and setting up consults and saving money and maybe flying overseas for a better value surgery, this isn’t really an “easy” business.

I can only relate w/ those who are as extreme as me ATP. This is the spirit you need to make this stuff work. There’s no other way I could live. I am giving this every fiber of my fucking being and would rather die on the operating table during an elective procedure than die the perpetual death of the "life" I had before

HOP ON ROIDS ALREADY AND GET FAT REMOVAL WHY STARVE:unsure:
 
I am doing parnate. Nardil iirc has fatigue issues and marplan wasn't strong enough or something. I think this will be very good and already has raised my baseline a lot despite things like wrecked sleep sometimes and the PSMF deal in general. Also haven't gone to the gym in a month as I adjust to BP issues, which happens in the first weeks. But I think it will be a life-changer overall

I used to be bluepilled and regurgitate the stupid fucking nonsense like "people just need to go outside, get off screens" etc. – as though we would have ppl who are disadvantaged in face, eye color, height, clavicle width, intelligence, whatever, but then somehow we all would naturally have the capacity to have high dopamine/serotonin and to thrive without pharmacological fixes
parnate dosage ?? is 10 daily ok?
