Closet is safe and does not put me in the firing line depending on an election (fed gov job in red state, wooooo.)
Apparently, my family has a hereditary blood pressure problem treated by Spironolactone, so I probably would've ended up on that no matter what. Only took my mom 30+ years of doctors failing to treat it before it was found out! One of these days I'll go for my first doctor's appointment since checks notes 2018 and bring up my long list of shit to discuss.
For now, I will try to be content with occasional full body shaving and wearing skirts at home (very comfy, long one is like wearing a blanket constantly), and save money to make moving to another state (a goal of mine) possible in the future.
