How do you explain this hobby to friends/partner?

Wife finally asked about the vials in the fridge last night and I realized I've been quietly building a pharmacy while telling her it's 'just supplements.' The look on her face was not favorable.

How do people actually talk about this IRL without sounding like a weird biohacker?

I'm a doctor and I still get the eyebrow from my partner. The truth is the healthiest option โ€” 'these are peptides, they're legal research chemicals, here's the benefit I'm targeting.' Short and boring is best.

I tell my wife they're 'doctor-prescribed recovery injections' and technically that's not a lie because my buddy is a doctor and he prescribed them in a group chat.

I showed my wife the MRI before and after my ACL. That settled it.

My wife started on GLP-1s six months after I did. Problem solved.

Mine just says 'you and your little injections' in the same tone she uses for my plants. I'll take it.

I don't explain it. I keep one mini fridge in the garage. Problem doesn't arise.

I just lie. I'm not proud of it but it's working.

This thread is the most useful non-useful thread I've read in months. Thanks team.
