High testosterone men who are single, how do you do it…
This isn’t a post to brag about my testosterone. I’ve stayed off this sub ever since Ramadan and muslim subs in general bc they’re so triggering but I have to ask.
Alhamdulilah Allah granted me shifa from some health problems I had long term and my testosterone is now normal, actually quite high in my blood test. The extra muscle and overall mass I’ve put on is cool but honestly the urges are driving me insane. It’s the blessed 10 days of Dhul Hijjah and I feel like I’m fighting war everyday trying to contain myself.
I already have decently good habits. I pray, avoid social media (deleted IG and only really use reddit or fb occasionally), avoid triggers etc and quit PMO a long time ago but I’ll just randomly be in the library or go outside in this hot weather and all it takes is one glance and the urges go crazy.
Alhamdulilah I just started working recently and am building myself financially, I even work 12 hr days and come home exhausted. But i still have some other issues to deal with (mainly health recovery) before considering marriage. Probably another 6 months minimum.
I continue to make dua regularly that I get married asap and to stay away from zina but I feel like i’m reaching a breaking point here. I never understood why people committed zina so freely but it makes perfect sense to me now. My deen feels like it can slip any moment even though I’m trying my best to remain steadfast. I also can’t fast regularly because my doctor has advised me to eat plenty to promote healing and recovery for my health issues.
Any advice?
