      Moreso stringing together thoughts and remembering words, and being able to flow through the conversation instead of like, starting on random bullshit then like quieting down because brain no worky.

      Idk, its hard to say for your case. its not like, perfect, as i get anxiety spikes, and am more likely to have cardiovascular issues due to estrogen. Its not magic, I got diagnosed at like, 22-23, and I still made stupid choices due to other issues like dysphoria, overwork, and bad environmental upbringing. its moreso giving yourself ammo to use in case of something worse and being able to not worry so much about keeping routines and less “it fixed me and everything’s better”.
