For those of you that decided to go Grey market, I have a question

[ThatNextGril]

I have hoarding tendencies (I keep it under control) and the thought of losing access to something important to me is frightening to me.

With the legal fight, I was just having to live with too much anxiety about something happening to compound and me not being able to get it without spending all my money on it.

Now, unless someone wins a court battle that allows them to poke through my freezer, I have access for ten years that cannot be taken away from me.

I don't lean towards hoarding in general, but I do tend to buy a back up of something I really like in case it stops getting made. (Random case in point, a model of Nike trainers that I bought at an outlet once like 12 years ago. They were the most perfect shoes for my feet ever - I could literally walk an entire day, miles and miles, even without socks, with nary a blister or sore spot. I scoured the internet and bought the 6 remaining pairs I could find online. Still have 2 pairs today but will mourn them dearly when they're worn out).
That said, I cannot fathom life without a GLP1 drug, specifically tirz at this point, quieting the food noise. I've been keeping clothes in larger sizes "in case" I gain weight and need them again. After all, that's what always has happened in the past when I've dropped a size or two. I have to remind myself it doesn't ever have to be that way again and I really can clean out the closet. I've got just over 5 years of tirz, but am still going to get at least 3 more kits to feel I have a decent safety net.

I can't tolerate the high doses of GLPs, but if I did, I would definitely be hoarding more with GBs for T100 and R100. There is always a GB lately for T100. And I'm sure there will be another GB for R100 sooner or later.

I can maintain my weight on less than 5 mg of tirz per week. But I have maybe another 30 pounds to lose.

At this point, Big Pharma feels ripped off if they aren't getting at least $1k or $2k a month for a medication, even for oral medications for some relatively common conditions. So they can fuck themselves, along with the insurance companies and the federal government.

Not for nothing, but every Ibuprofin/aspirin/NSAID anyone has taken this century was likely made in China/India by the same labor and infrastructure that are producing peps. Covid really opened a lot of folks eyes with regards to safety/efficacy/gatekeeping/censorship/control (etc/etc/etc). I'm freaking thrilled to have been clued into peps in general and even more stoked to have stumbled upon this amazing forum. Kudos to those who have kept me entertained and informed while I am enjoying reading old posts during my getting up to speed on becoming "Gary the Gray" and furthering the wife and I's journey into enhanced wellness.

Money is my motivation. And not wanting to spend more of it than I have to

I'm still wearing my larger clothes! I did have to invest in new belts. Jeans are so pricey and the thought of just replacing them I can't stand. Usually they would already be trashed but since my thighs have no chance of rubbing anymore they are lasting longer than three months.... Wow. Just realized my current jeans have lasted over a year. Haven't had that happen in a long time.
