I’m really fucking afraid Im gonna crash. It really looks like I am gonna since Im feeling weirdly well. Fuck Im tempted to go back on a lower dose and taper off slower what do you reckon ?
Don’t. Inadvisable. You could just make things so much worse. For me, taking another dose after side effects is what really fucked me up.
Thanks but I feel to good right now. Its so odd and Im certain Im gonna crash. I dont know what to do
dont even consider going back on it
You’ve already stopped using it. Taking more at this point won’t be another chance to taper - you’ll be starting it again. This is an exceptionally bad idea. You risk worsening your symptoms significantly.
Taking Finasteride again won’t do a thing for you stay well clear from it.

Would like to update on that. Been off fin since for roughly 2 weeks and today is the first day where I feel normal again. Mental dulness is gone, depression phases get less frequent and less severe. Erections are slowely normalizing and my penile shrinkage seems to be gone for now. ( was cold, small and numb before now its pretty much like pre fin ) . Erections are still not 100%
Sounds like a positive trend you got going! I hope it stays that way.

I hope I will! And I surely wont ever touch it again. Thanks guys! Will keep you updated
One more update. I still have ED on most days+ penile shrinkage when flaccid and also when erect. Mental sides are pretty much gone (experienced 2 anxiety+ depression phases since last update 2 weeks ago. Im still regrowing hair since I stopped which I find really odd. Will give another update in a few weeks time , thanks guys !
Any updates? I seem pretty similar to you but am doing ok so far, minus mild shrinkage. Did that go away for you?
- meant to hit this
Hello. I would like to follow up on this.
I believe I am 99% percent recovered although it did take roughly 10 bloody months. As I said my mental sides were the first to normalize and eventually dissapear. After around 6 months they were nearly completely gone, only coming back very rarely and a lot less intense. My sexual sides took the longest. Had trouble getting and maintaining erections for about 8 months and my weakend orgasm stayed for about 9.
All in all it was a awfully long process which I am 1000% sure wasnt in my head btw. I hope nothing is coming back and I can only advice everyone to stay patient.
I didnt do anything particular to help me recover other than going to the gym and lifting weights.
Again, i hopefully wont have to suffer anymore but this time was by far the worst in my life with the peak being unlivable ( mainly due to depression attacks ).
Ill stere here and help as best I can still because I know exactly how you guys are feeling and I wont let you down. Ill also update on my condition every so often. Stay strong my friends I am 100% certain that there is normality waiting for all of us. Some longer some sooner.

Very very happy for you. Envious too, but also very happy. 
Go live a happy life and forget about this place…
…except if you DO feel you can do this. Always nice to read when fully recovered folks return to let us know they’re still ok.

I don’t mean to attack you with this Jin, but really anyone who finds themselves here should be encouraged to stay in touch, for a variety of reasons that benefit both the recovered and those still in trouble.
Most of our accounts don’t post, it’d be good to hear from more people, but it’d also be a morale boost to hear from people who are doing better, and might help shake the accusations made by people who say it’s too negative here.
People who recover still have a sensitivity that could be triggered by a medication, cream or food. It’d be helpful for them to be able to continue checking developments, so they don’t find themselves in the same position again.
Additionally, if we’re ever looking to crowd fund something, hopefully those who recover will remember the barren hopelessness of the situation and might like to contribute to help with something so few have experience or understanding of.
