Me. Right, when I hit 18. Any studies? You just scared the shit out of me.

I originally started at around the same time, I’m 21 right now and I can’t say I’m experiencing the same issues post-fin as you are. On the other hand, there are much older members than you who have talked about the exact same sort of symptoms, e.g. personality changes, disinterest in music etc. I don’t think this has anything to do with youth in particular, I think it’s just post-fin syndrome in general.
I have most of the same symptoms, but I started in my early 20s…
Well the brain technically never stops developing in a certain sense but defineitly teens to early twenties seems to show growth and maturation but there are a lot of variables out there. Consider these, the amount of finasteride you took and the duration. For me it was Proscar at prolly a 1.75mg for over a year. SSRI’s I took a powerful SSRI while on Proscar for a month. And alcohol use. Alcohol is proven to be deleterious to brain growth in fact halting it in most cases and it really inccreaes E levels. I drank like a friggin sailor while I was on Proscar.
From what i have read 25 and below show evidence of steady brain growth tapering off as you reach 25 but growth and maturation nonetheless.
