this drug should be categorized as a dissociative

Symptoms Neurological
#1

i feel a great disconnect between the outer world and my inner perceptions. being off the drug for two weeks, thankfully my thought processes have returned, but the association to my body is definitely impaired… i still feel the propeciated outer coating.

“brainfog” got pretty intense during my third month… so i tried quitting, but felt such an incredible loss of energy i figured it had to be withdrawal.

now having 4 months under my belt, i’ve lost more hair than ever before… and enough is enough.

caffeine is my only source of energy, and if anyone has an alternative i’d appreciate a suggestion. but more importantly i wish to regain a sense of connective wholeness to rid this crest of damage left from the receded wave that was propecia.

Quit caffeine now. It is only pumping energy from your already exhausted adrenals. You can use l-tyrosine pills to build dopamine and to give you energy.

Buy these books and follow the instructions:
Adrenal fatigue - 21st century stress syndrome (Dr.Wilson)
The Edge effect (Dr.Braverman)

You will see a difference.

after being to 5 VERY BAD psychiaterists im seeing a psychologist , …if any consolation - it helps …everyone suffring from the “down like” / “panic” / depression effects should consider trying to see one

also tried a “prozac like” pills which were very bad …it was like being on X , and other benzodiazepine based pills which were temporarly helpful…

thank you for the responses. i took your advice Dynaaminen and quit coffee. at first i tapered down with the caffeine from tea… but now i’ve gone without that too.

l-tyrosine has definitely made a difference in my mood, but not in the energy department. maybe my body just needs more time to adjust.

impairedhair- IS ME

4 months ago i went on proscar. side effects were not as bad as propecia so i had high hopes. but holy shit now i’ve lost more hair than ever before and again i feel the disconnection to reality. i thought i could handle it but life feels too out of control.

i officially quit proscar 1 week ago and experienced intense anxiety/depression. on the up side… reality felt real! but tonight after randomly crying i decided to go back on it… which immediately leveled out my mood? after that week of sobriety, i can acknowledge the difference in mental clarity. on the drug i perceive at maybe 75% and i can’t believe i went for 4 months like this. i’m a fucking idiot for screwing up my body so bad… and i’m still fucking losing hair!!!
