In poststructural autoethnography, there is a tension between a desire to write the self and a knowing that there is no stable self to write. A few have recently attempted to theoretically and empirically work through this tension (De Freitas & Paton; Gannon; Jackson & Mazzei; Phillips, Harris, Larson, & higgins; Reinertsen). In this article, I attempt to represent a nonsubjectified 'self,' relying on the construct of hacceity (Deleuze & Guattari). Writing a hacceity is an ethical move. In consciously refusing to represent a humanist self, this project seeks to think, constitute, and represent 'me' differently in order that 'I' may come to live differently, for how I conceive myself directly functions in how I live in this world. Specifically, this autoethnography, wherein 'auto' is understood as a desubjectified individuation, will represent hacceities of wo/man in assemblages of anabolic-androgenic steroids
