Can people compare there symptoms during fin and post fin

General Discussion
#1

There is no point to compare them pre fin as this can be very depressing, but I am just interested to know whether they were better during the drug:

During
-Can have and maintain an erection
-Slightly less mental abilities
-Looked like shit and lost lots of weight
-Depression and No motivation
-The hair was maintained but there was no growth
-Urine Dribbling

After
-much better mental abilities
-Look better
-Feel more driven and more motivated
-Lost some hair
-Libido and Erections were great until the 8 month mark (???)
-Penile pain, lower part (Dont know the cause and noone else does :frowning:
-Youth Impotence
-Slight muscle twitching
-Dribbling is gone

Well basically my mental sides are perfect and my sexual sides are shit…And i haven’t experienced a crash

on(about 8 weeks)

  • Sweaty nose. Beads of sweat all the time on my nose.
  • After a few weeks - loss of libido
  • after 7 weeks - feelings of depression. This made me quit.
    At one point in time while I was on i got send a email “Porn from Africa” It was a joke type email with big fat african woman. But It really aroused my desire. Perhaps abnormally so. :neutral_face: I cant explain this

Off(4 years)

  • After a number of weeks - Skin on scrotum become red and has remained this way the whole time.
  • After a number of weeks. Servere dandruff.
  • After a month or so. Teeth become sensitive to cold
  • After a number of months. Love handles expanded.
  • After 2 years cystic back acne with situational anxiety - low cortisol symptom
  • Loss of libido the whole time.

Recovery of libido on arimidex for a few days. Felt back to normal. Sexual desire back. Was unable to replicate this. But it gave me some hope that I can be normal.

Ok, here a sort of timeframe too.

On propecia:

2 weeks in: Mild insomnia/anxiety set in.
2 Months in: depression sets in and anxiety becomes worse.
3 Months in: had some very weak erections and decided to come off the crap.

Off Propecia:

Week 1: felt horrible, extreme anxiety (twitching)
Week 2: started to feel really good (hormones kicked in, thought I would be ok)
Week 3: Crashed, penis stopped working totally, no sex drive what so ever, extreme anxiety/insomnia/depression and neck pain (strange)
Week 4-6: depression/insomnia got slightly better, testicles and scrotum shrank, no libido, severe ED, severe anxiety, flaccid penis shrank considerably.

1 year off: depression has gotten somewhat better, anxiety has faded considerably as well as muscle spasms. Still no libido, still shrunk testicles and flaccid penis size is smaller. Still have problems maintaining erections but am able to get them, and occasionally have morning erections. Insomnia isn’t as bad but no deep sleep it seems. Lots of headaches, jock itch, get sick easily, feel crappy a lot. Liver/testicle pain from time to time.

Basically one year off somethings have improved slightly while other new problems have appeared, and other side effects have stayed the same.
