Re: Raising Money to Cure PSSD

There is no way to raise €10m just like that, unless a member here is exceptionally wealthy and willing to donate such an amount. But that is not necessary. At the beginning five digits or low six digits can be enough. It is important to raise awareness of this condition and to establish it is real....

Re: Raising Money to Cure PSSD

Nobody will be able to tell you that. You can only quantify the costs if you know every step of the way from today's almost complete lack of understanding to a full understanding of the condition. But if you knew the way already, you would already have that understanding. In science, taking a step c...

Re: Jrums81 has passed

I would say all the very severe cases lose their depression and get the killing anhedonia and emotional numbness instead.

Re: Jrums81 has passed

Sad to read. :( To prevent more tragedies it is important that victims of these drugs don't stay within the confines of forums like this one. It is important to speak up and organize. Report your side effects to the authorities, speak about your experience on YouTube, approach the media, approach do...

Re: Reporting to European pharmacovigilance agencies

Absolutely. This problem will only be addressed if the authorities are aware of it. They can't be aware of it if the problem is not reported. It's the least everyone can do. Everyone can find their local pharmacovigilance agency here: https://www.propeciahelp.com/report-your-propecia-side-effects-to...

Re: My introduction, encouragment and support needed.

Dear FinnishGuy96, I am sorry to read that another person is subject to these awful persistent drug side effects. Unfortunately, such persistent side effects from various drugs are under-appreciated, under-researched and under-reported. Please consider reporting your persistent side effects to the a...

Re: Ideas of what's involved with not getting boozed

There is no way to overcome this currently. First, we need to understand this condition better, before we can think about effective treatments.
