<h2>How is it this bad?</h2>
<hr>
<h3>endocrinological</h3>
I take estrogen (tablets, 2mg, 3/day), spironolactone (tablets, 50mg, 2/day), and progesterone (gel capsuls, 100mg, 1/day) because I am transgender.
here are the associated costs for the above medications:
<ul>
<li>estrogen: $14.05/month, $168.6/year</li>
<li>spironolactone: $6/month, $72/year</li>
<li>progesterone: $15/month, $180/year</li>
<li>total: $420.6/year</li>
</ul>
you will note that estrogen and an anti androgen are responsible for 57.2% of the yearly cost.
this is ridiculous.<br>
I did some calculations:<br>
cost of diy estrogen injectable solution (estradiol enanthate, 40mg/ml, 10ml): $70-$100<br>
necessary doseage for estrogen monotherapy: ~.13ml<br>
injection timing: every 7 days<br>
10ml/.13ml = 74.9 weeks of estrogen<br>
52 weeks in a year.<br>
100*1/(10/.13/52) = $67.6/year for estrogen (upper bound)<br>
70*1/(10/.13/52) = $47.32/year for estrogen (lower bound)<br>
<br>
why is diy cheaper than having healthcare?
this does not account for cost of needles and alcohol wipes, but that is negligible.

<h3>neurological</h3>
the psychologist that did my autism evaluation thinks that I am depressed.
this is based on 0 evidence other than my consistently high score on the PHQ-9.
I contend that the PHQ-9 is not a useful tool of assessment for neurodivergent people.
<br><br>
apparently, it is somehow more conceiveable that I am autistic and depressed than it is that I could be autistic and have adhd.
I am very clearly not depressed, in fact, I would say that other than the negative impacts of the very obvious and DSM-V compliant signs of ADHD I exhibit, I am doing quite well.

foot supports the relevant escape codes for vim's spell hlgroups. this is ideal as now misspelled words are underlined in red, whereas improperly capitalized words are underlined in yellow.
