I have had pfs for over a decade and one of my worse symptoms is the lack of motivation for work and general anxiety about life and my future. Is this most of us? Is having children a bad idea for us? Every day I change my mind about whether I’m capable of being a father or not. Are there people here able to maintain a professional job and have had kids since getting PFS without struggling terribly?
The list of symptoms and their severity—in other words, the extent of the epigenetic alterations incurred—will likely determine this. If PFS symptoms are mild, amounting only to a certain degree of decreased libido, it seems possible to lead what is considered a normal life with work and family, albeit while harboring dissatisfaction. I know one Japanese victim in such a situation. But, only one case, as far as i know. Conversely, it would be difficult for those with moderate to severe symptoms.

I guess another question is how many of us are trying to retire asap? Before I met my current girlfriend, all I wanted to do was be free from work and be a hermit doing my favorite hobbies. Are the majority of us like this? Should we listen to that gut feeling or try to do what society tells us and get married and have kids?

what do you mean? Your words are vague and I don’t really understand what you mean. Are you really a patient?
First of all, I would like you to write your member story.
What do you do for work?
