it has been my experience that dogs generally don't like men who have low T. they feel they must dominate such men. that is what most dogs do to me.

I have never heard of that before and I have no idea what my T. level is but I but I just read that hypogonadal men are more likely to suffer from anxiety and depression disorders , I'm wondering what my levels are ??

As I have OCD, I'm scared of inappropriate parts twitching and end up doing them as a result. It doesn't help when others notice it and spread rumors about it, making me even more scared, which makes it even worse.

low t sufferers also tend to have higher levels of stress hormones. the dogs sense this olfactorily and it reminds them of low-status mates in the pack, which they dominate.

I don't know what my stress hormone levels are but if I had to guess they appear to higher than normal ( I just don't do stress very well at all ). It makes perfect sense what you say about dogs and the pack/hierarchy mentality though.

I have always had a love for cats and they have always known that I was a cat person.

Doctors, dentists, airplanes, heights, getting blood drawn, people coming into my home and crowded places.

Wouldn't say i have a phobia of doctors, though dentists i am afraid of. Doctors i just hate because they think they're gods and know everything. Afraid of heights to a point, though i love rides that shoot ya up in the air, but absolutely shrink from the Ferris wheel. Don't think the heights are necessarily what get me but more the faulty engineering or old rusted out parts etc. Have a huge fear of bugs, the way they feel, the way they move and fly and buzz and crawl in orifices - my brother had to go to the Dr to get a democrat removed from his ear. Hate raw meat too, snakes, pretty much any creepy crawlies. Roomie says i need aversion therapy.

Hmm. I have a few and there are days where certain ones bother me more. Clowns. Airplanes and airports. Rollercoasters and most motion rides. Being forced to do something I'm really anxious about. Roaches. Spiders. Germs (which I've gotten better about - I used to wash my hands so much as a child that they cracked and bled). Vomiting, hence the germ obsession.
