DESTROYED BY FINASTERIDE - My Story 

No problem matthew gotta keep eachother going!

thank you bro and no i am not brave, just desperate.

god bless you bro, thanks for that comment!! mate i will tell you... just let your hair do its thing. save up for a hair transplant! im glad you found this video. never take finasteride. its russian roulette and you might end up dead from it (no joke, it will make you suicidal and want to die). nah man, there are millions of lonely damaged men out there. you are not alone. cherish and be happy that you have a well functioning body! the rest of your issues you can allways work on to improve :) best regards from norway :)

Thank you for the comment man i apreciate it

New study: "Data obtained after finasteride treatment showed that 186 genes (i.e., 171 up- and 15 downregulated) and 19 (i.e., 17 up- and 2 downregulated) were differentially expressed in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, respectively.""Conclusion: Some of the genes reported to be differentially expressed (i.e., TTR, DIO2, CLDN1, CLDN2, SLC4A5, KCNE2, CROT, HCRT, MARCKSL1, VGF, IRF2BPL) and GSEA, suggest a potential link with specific side effects previously observed in patients and in the animal model, such as depression, anxiety, disturbance in memory and attention, and sleep disturbance. These data may provide an important background for future experiments aimed at confirming the pathological role of these genes."

Could be, but of course the more logical explanation would be that balding men are more likely to be depressed and suicidal

@@goofybaII balding men don't have the detrimental neurological issues dude, the drug causes that and then the bald guys don't care about hair anymore because they just want to be well again.

100%. I had no idea it could get this bad. Everyday is a nightmare tbh

Sucks bro

happy to hear u recovered mate! enjoy life !

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway Thanks, I had PFS symptoms for around 6 months in 2016 and recovered. Then I had good 3 years with no problems until religion triggered psychosis in 2019 and I got schizophrenia diagnosis. Now I have many of the symptoms you describe in the video, but it's from psych meds instead of finasteride.

@@HuskerYT sounds rough man. do whatever u think is best. and i hope u feel better soon !

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway Thanks bro, I hope you get better too.

thanks man . 100%

100%. if i only had some minor ED issues like some have from PFS, thinking about it would def make everything worse.

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway your biggest issue is the brain fog, if you can fix this, everything else will correct itself. i did Mdma sometime ago, and i had brain fog for almost a week, i could not function at all, you'd be surprise how much daily focus you need for EVEERYTHING.... so i truly feel your pain. I was petrified, but thankfully it went away after a week, i will not be touching any type of drug ever again, gone are the days in my 20's where Mdma did not impact me at all, the older you get, the side effects become 10x worse.

@@au10666 this is not just brain fog. Its complete cognitive decline. Ive OD on mdma prior to pfs and yeah the brain fog recovering from that was quite alot

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway that's scary dude, but don't give up, find a way, no matter what!

@@au10666 i will man, im allready 4 years in i can handle abit longer :)

100%. lev så likt som i naturen som mulig så er du foran 99.999% av befolkningen.

yeah done it several times. almost everyone with pfs has normal bloodwork, yet feel fucked

mhm. any anecdotes specifically u could link me? i did read about it but i was like. fuck man i gotta atleast do something for my hair u know :P im not sure if i should use it or not. gahhh damn.

⁠absolutely, especially if you are using sodium valproate to open your epigenetics to change. Google minoxidil and androgen receptor

Stop minoxidil man just google minoxidil androgen receptor you will see that minox screws with your androgen receptors

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorwayhow can you even doubting to still keep using that dangerous garbage. What does shedding hair matters over those devastating side effects. Minox, saw palmetto etc can all cause it. Not wanting to sound rough. But pharma=poison

great comment. i wish i knew this earlier. never go against nature... if im going bald, so be it. accept myself for who i am. thank you brother

Depression is the least of my worries. But i get ur point 100%.

Because the so called depression from this drug is far beyond depression. People with preexisting depression know what actual depression is and what this shit does.

​@@dukenukem69 Still it is strange to blame the drug right of the bat, while there could be million things that could make depression worse, considering the drug was used way-way before and there is a lot of studies that show that there isn't really side effects that persists.

@@ashenmint absolutely right after few weeks it's effects wears off, so the side effects aren"t permanent, yet many solely blames finastride.

not medical advice. possibly if a new batch comes in and i do another run of valporate. i have some plan B if things dont work out this time around.

I don’t agree. Based on his story and testimony of symptoms, there is almost ZERO chance in my opinion that Russo’s protocol is not what made him and his friend Jasper better. Go watch all of his videos, and his symptoms and the specific things he did to improve his symptoms. There’s almost no way in my opinion he got better on his own.

im on animal based and it helps maybe 10-15% at best. yeah i followed goatis for years now.

Yoga can help, and excercise too well someone said this to me. I quit fin 5 day ago and I am facing some side effects like ed. Well can we get connected ? Like telegram, insta, whatsapp? And where are you from dude ?

had 0 depression before taking the drug. thank you man !

possibly. atleast if i went to the doctor they would have told me: hey your hair is fine theres no need for finasteride at this current moment. and then i would possibly give it enough time to make a proper decision to not take it. like read up on it etc. sad life man....

@@kevinwilson7318 yup. Do not take this. My life is pretty much over at this point. Half my 20s spent alone isolated, no career, no friends, nothing. Live as naturally as u can brother

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway I’m very sorry to hear about this man. I hope you eventually come out of this. A lot of research says 2% of those taking finasteride will experience the side effects, but I think it’s probably more like 20%, while only 2% admit to it. Those who don’t admit to it continue to take it because they are willing to sacrifice optimal mental and sexual health for hair. *Do you think there is any truth to that?*

@@kevinwilson7318 100%. A 70% reduction in dht and alloP levels is bound to fuck someone up.

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway Makes a lot of sense. Keep sharing your story and warning others man 👍

@@msh_4442 some weeks in 2021, and then aug23-feb24

its like inducing chemo in your brain it feels like. its expensive aswell yes. im waiting for more stock then im continuing the protocol.

i dont understand ur comment sorry, could you rephrase? you dont beleve PFS sufferers stories or?

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway I don’t understand why you say you have post-finasteride syndrome but you still have your hair, it’s weird, that’s all.

@@OGReuben PFS has nothing to do with hair. i suggest you read up on it. here f example: www.pfsnetwork.org/ themenshealthclinic.co.uk/the-devastating-effects-of-finasteride-post-finasteride-syndrome-pfs/ best regards

this is a joke comment right? or are u actually serious XD

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway your mockin my comment when Im just trying to help. w/e, it feels so hopeless when you believe your stuck like this forever but you can make it out of it but you have to believe it urself even if its hard.

@@philipsundqvist2546 ive had depression prior to pfs. This is 100x worse than just plain old depression mate. If u had PFS u would know its not just «all in my head». Go to «cortex labs» youtube channel and watch his newest documentary on PFS if u want. Loads of good science based info! I apreciate ur comment. Ive been to the doctor, they say the same as u. I dont want to use ssri due to pssd risk or watever. I dont wanna band aid my issues with pills u know. Depression is very common indeed! Pfs is not. Quite few % get it. Id say maybe 1/100 get it? Best regards

Depression? Cognitive issues aside how would you explain that the condition caused me muscle wastage, nerve pains, tremors. Depression also doesn’t include severe cognitive disability that is commonly associated with this.

This is ridiculous, and SSRIs can themselves numb emotions and cause the same problems. Depression also does not come on so suddenly. And most depression does not have anhedonia of the blunting kind at all, low mood or motivation s NOT the same thing as not feeling emotions.

Even if u dont, thanks for the kind words brother🙏🏼 have a great day

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway thanks ❤️‍🩹

check my shorts videos my whatsapp is there

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorway uhh which one? You have a lot of shorts videos brother

@@user-ri9cn2rs5i i dont wanna type it here it is one of the shorts videos the picture has my phone number.

Whatsapp

@@PostFinasterideSyndromeNorwayhi guys, keen to try the protocol also but not sure where to source everything and would be good to maybe start a small WhatsApp group between us ?

Thanks for being so honest and transparent guy from Norway. Incredibly relatable content - no longer feeling social in social situations etc since PFS - really keen to get back to who I was

@@RichieD-s6s contact my whatsapp

@@RichieD-s6s same bro i cant even purchase groceries cuz my body goes into panic.what a waste of life
