@Dubya_B Shocking. I like to think people generally have good intentions but stories like that are seriously challenging to explain.
@Ukguy82, thanks mate. I felt like such a mess making that video so I appreciate the compliment. Yeah, the drugs industry is a sick joke, no pun intended. You’re right though, it’s encouraging seeing patients coming together, that’s surely the key to our strength.
Dear Luckydevil,
Thank you for your activism. What you do is very brave and may contribute to awareness of persistent side effects from Accutane in particular and our condition in general.
May I kindly ask you to consider referencing this forum and our survey in the info box below your videos? As you may know participation from Accutane victims in our survey is too low and you may reach some individuals that are not on this forum.
Thank you,
Northern Star
Thanks, @Northern_Star. Yes of course I’ll do that, it’s a great idea. I’ll update the videos now and refer to it in the next one.
Drafting a quick blost post to promote the vid.
Again, brill work @luckydevil. This is really the kind of thing we need.
Thanks. I’ve subscribed to it, and will be sure to watch it later when I get a chance.Have you also posted about this on the “Repairing the long-term damage from accurate” thread at acne.org by any chance?
Welcome, @forgotten_dreams! If you haven’t yet, please consider participating in our survey. We are behind schedule for people who took Accutane, so it would be great if you could help us by participating. Please see here for more information: Post-Drug Syndrome Survey FAQ. Survey NOW LIVE - Please Participate
A silly video about a serious subject. Because laughter is the best medicine… apart from Accutane of course 
oh and Propecia
@forgotten_dreams I haven’t put anything on acne.org. Tbh I find that long thread kind of daunting and unapproachable, but maybe it’s worth me overcoming that to connect with victims who aren’t on here. It’s a shame we’re all so scattered.
This is amazing!
Awesome! 10/10. A must see for anyone considering Accutane. Not sure how much time you put into making this, but it was well worth it!
Thanks people! I wanted to make something a bit more shareable than my other long videos. I know it’s fairly rough and ready, but hopefully it works for what it is.
I’d be happy for someone with greater artistic/technical/whatever skills than me to polish it up if they liked the concept.
@Dubya_B, I wrote the script a few weeks back and have just been sitting on it. Had a free day yesterday and decided, you know what, I’m going to make this thing. Hashed out the drawings, stitched it all together, hey presto!
Its great that you decided to be a public face of PAS. I think its reassuring to see a normal, good looking guy that is secretly impotent due to accutane, its something that I can relate to all too well. If I saw you at a bar, or in some other public setting I would assume that youre a normal young man leading a healthy romantic and sexual life just like everybody else, but seeing that this actually isnt the case and that you are suffering in silence makes me think about just how many other guys (and gals) are out there that appear to be leading normal lives but are suffering in silence just like us. Im really glad that you decided to make your channel, keep up the good work man
Thanks for the kind words. If I can help to humanise this condition, then that’s great. Anyway, I’m going to keep on putting myself out there.
wow, just brilliant
Latest vid is a conversation between @Dubya_B and I. A very interesting chat which I’m very grateful to have had.
We talk about our respective stories leading up to, during and after Accutane, as well as sharing reflections on some of the wider issues surrounding Accutane/Propecia/SSRI victimisation.
Many thanks to Dubya for agreeing to this.
Agreed! An absolutely great conversation. It’s difficult to cover 20 years of PAS in a short time and be thorough.
Perhaps another video in the coming months to hear more of your continuing story and touch-upon some of the less personal aspects of the PAS realm.
Thanks for putting yourselves out there guys.
Tremendous courage in coming forward and talking so openly about what has happened to you in public. I’m so sorry you had to experience that at such a young age @Dubya_B. Thanks for making the video.
Shared it on my PSSD campaigning Twitter. Anyone written about PFS on medium? I just wrote an article including PSSD that I will upload soon. Medium is a popular self publishing platform. Keep up the good campaigning.
This article has a lot of likes on medium
