Been thinking lately, how powerful this drug really is.
It literally has the power to change your rational thoughts, to have you contemplating taking your own life or less severe, erasing your libido / sex drive like rubbing chalk from a board, with other emotions, before even getting started on physical changes to your anatomy.
Why oh why is this pill still for sale???
I remember the onset of my crash, about a week prior l convinced myself I had contracted aids/HIV and was looking everywhere else for answer except for the fucking glaringly obvious!!!
My penis had started to go red on the tip and show signs of wrinkling, why I now know is shrinkage but at the time I thought of every other possibility imaginable, HIV, STD, prostratis. When all the time it was propecia. I wonder how many other men do not make the connection? Hence why I’ve read posts on here that say… Until I found this site I had no idea what was happening to me!!!
Potentially thousands of men with PFS who don’t even know it.
I’ve spoke to other men who went through this manic state of mind, one man told me he was convinced he had bowel cancer and was saying his final farewells to his wife and kids!!!
This is all fucked up.
The point here is, for me and many other men, finasteride seems to have a way if deflecting your brain or thoughts away from the root cause, that all these irrational thoughts are because of propecia.
I’ve read a story on here of a guy who has to be rushed to the emergency room convinced he was dying. It’s beyond me how it manages to deceive our own bodies.
Any of you guys suffer with any abnormal thoughts prior to or during your crash?
My first symptoms were actually a facial rash on my cheeks and forehead, freezing cold hands, and horrible brain fog. Sexually, I was fine for a week. I thought I had Lupus.
Yes, I have zero sexual thoughts and this is a year after crash. It could take me many years for libido to come back. Still no erctions
