If I don’t work I can’t buy beer or viagra so life is worse. I don’t wake up every morning feeling motivated, but there is no other choice

From How long have you been suffering of this?..
10 months only … but im a very heavy case i would say.
ah yes that sounds logical. but im living at home so i can buy these things without working 
oh jesus. this is so hard
i think the best is to kill myself. i mean im useless for the world now . i only make my family sad right now . i wish you all the best and hope you find a cure soon ! i will get my relief now .
Do anything mate, get drunk, cry, write all that comes to your head, but don’t quit life. We don’t even know if there’s anything after.

Suicide has not fixed anyone yet. This is not your fault, but you are still responsible for finding a way to live your life. You’ve only been 10 months. Give it some more time and try some new things (treatments, experiments, excercise, psychotherapy, etc.).
Fight for yourself.

you dont have any plan how i feel. chronic prostatitis , no sexuality at all. cognitive impairment (cant read books even) and yeah , all caused by a hair loss drug i thought are vitamine pills ( i got it without prescription from a friend of my relative and without the drug information about sides) . so its definitely not my fault. but its too late. i know im fucked forever now.
Hang in there! You are still young and have plenty of time. I know it is tough, and it is unfair, and it seems hopeless. But you never know, hope may just be around the corner.
There is ongoing research, our condition is increasingly recognised by the medical and scientific community, there are plenty of community projects in the works for which we will need input from as many people as possible including you, Sage-217 is in advanced clinical trials and may provide relief for some mental symptoms, everyday someone here could accidently find something that helps with some symptoms. There is no reason to give up.
If you are worried about making your family sad, imagine what suicide may do to them. You are not only taking your chance to get better away from you, you may as well hurt your relatives forever. If you want to be of value for this world, stay alive and support this community!

I agree with you in principal. But I’ve been hit with the worst of this. No emotions, no libido, severe insomnia, numb and shrunken penis, skin is dry and thinning, dry mouth, memory loss, no taste or smell, etc. There’s a limit to what a person can take. It’s just hard cause my life even leading up to this has been tough. OCD, anxiety, Accutane causing severe Crohns and fatigue, Cipro causing damage, subsequent addiction. I’m 37 and I’ve had enough. I do have a wonderful mother and some good friends and I am trying to hold on for them. I am lucky enough to work with Dr. Goldstein and will try some protocols but if it doesn’t work I have to call it a day. I can’t live like a lobotomized, castrated zombie either. I feel stuck.
