No, this isn’t some miracle cure, but I think it’s something we all could benefit from.

Before anyone gets worked up reading this, I would like to preface with this: This was merely an observation I made, followed with some of my own opinions. I’m not stating them to offend anyone, so please don’t jump all over me if you don’t agree. If you have something constructive to add, by all means do so. I really didn’t want to add that, but after reading some of the other posts lately, I thought it to be reasonable.

I was watching one of the news channels the other day and they had a psychologist on. He must of been in his 70’s and worked with politicians and olympic athletes, not as a “shrink” but to them improve performance. I wish I would of caught his name, but didn’t.

He said there was no hope for the politicians. Just kidding, really.

When he talked of olympic athletes, he said there was always a difference between the ones that were just athletes and gold medalists. He was unwavering, and remained steadfast in that statement, he said there was ALWAYS a distinct difference.

He said the ones that are just athletes, concentrate on the gold medal. The athletes who win the gold, concentrate on the PROCESS of winning the gold.

I know personally I’ve been mired in that rut myself, and from what I’ve read in here, I don’t think I’m the only one. I have noticed in the past, the few ( very few ) times when I could COMPLETELY put my problems aside ( or focusing on the end results I wanted ) , I did feel better. Cured, absolutely not, but you have to start somewhere. I know myself, I tend to be much more stressed when I think about my symptoms/ end results I want versus the process of fixing them. At times, I’ve been so stressed and depressed I doubt anything would of healed me. It also seems that those who were able to cure themselves, seemed to be very focussed on the process of fixing things, and of lower anxiety than some.

I am NOT saying it’s all in our heads, that theory is ridiculous. What I am saying is that focusing ( perhaps, worrying ) too much on our “gold medals” isn’t the best means for recovery.

Did I mention he said ALWAYS?

Peace

so It’s IS teh process!!11… lol

Thnx for the food for thought, it is a bit interesting. Focus more on getting yourself healthy via routines rather than fixating on a different state of being cured. That’s how I roll anyway.

It’s interessant the psycological aspect of this issue. It is well know that we are able to recover from catastrophic events that happens with ourself in some relatively short time. Individuals that became paraplegic in accidents would recover their general satisfaction of life (grade of felicity) in about one year. Probably, it happens because they know they are “really” paraplegic (there are no doubts…) and any improvement would be great. But what is happening is different : there are doubts and uncertainty around the problems caused by propecia. Nobody knows if the problem is really irreversible and in wich time after stop the medication we could expect some improvment. All this uncertainty lead to a very high grade of stress. The doubt is a very difficult feeling to live with. Obviously this stress worst the problem.

it’s not ridiculous - until you get some concrete evidence that the stuff does do damage, you CANNOT rule it out as a possibility.

(rolling eyes) okay dude.

Listen, congrats on your recovery, but you obviously didn’t have going on what I have going on. I can tell you, IT NOT IN MY HEAD.

We do have concrete evidence that this stuff does damage. Check out the fin studies section. There’s all the evidence you could ever need.

And as far as coaching is concerned, I don’t think any amount of coaching will undo the PHYSICAL changes that have happened to my cock.

Lol. (sigh)
