Battery Level
Energy levels, drive, and what fuels or drains you. How you manage your reserves and when to switch into low-power mode.
The Anonymous GQ Writer and Life Without Testosterone
Battery Level tracks what fuels you and how you manage your reserves. The anonymous GQ writer didn't run low — he hit zero. With no testosterone, there was no drive, no interest, no fuel of any kind. He wasn't depleted; the battery itself wasn't charging. When testosterone was reintroduced, everything came back at once — ambition, humor, envy, desire. The experience gave him a clear picture of what his battery actually ran on.
