Hoping anyone will tell me depression and anxuety really did get better over time. Im now 7 months off. Im afraid that if anxiety doesnt improve, life will be very diffucult. Not sure i want to live through years of this. Thanks.
Sometimes things seem less real. Houses in the distance look like toy models. Moving cars seem more like a fake movie set. Reality just seems less crisp and real. Its disturbing and frightening to me. It could also be from my zoloft. Wont know until i taper off, but i had it before starting zoloft after my crash. Also, my depth perception seems to be a little off.
It did get better with time in my case but the anxiety still comes around once in a while. I’ve been off a couple of years.
I was on Zoloft as well roughly 2 years ago and didn’t feel much better at the time either. I’m on a small dose of Lexapro currently.
Please hang in there and do what you can to challenge yourself and build self confidence (exercise, mentally challenge yourself, etc). Also, try to do things that you enjoy and socialize.
My PFS depression and anxuety are completely gone if I get depressed now its for a reason and is nowhere near as deep as it was when I was on Finasteride.
The problems I have now are physical and sexual.
You should have your B12 levels checked low B12 can cause depression.
Mark. I am doing ok, thanks for encouraging words. I am slowly getting to more solid ground. Had a bad withdrawal from antidepressant, causing me to feel like hell. Feeling much better last few days.
