    Yea that’s me rn. It hasn’t hit me yet (at least not noticably) but when it does I’m just embracing it. I know there’s medication/treatment but between cost and potential side effects (as someone who already struggles with mental health the possibility of Post Finasteride Syndrome scares the shit out of me) it’s not worth it.

    Plus I have a personal aversion to the idea of clinging on to youth or denying aging. Nothing against people trying to look how they want to but I’m embracing aging, it feels so much less stressful than the alternative


















  • Oh it gets worse, they’ve tried to open it up to those suffering from mental illness/depression and I believe they’re planning on re-introducing it in 2024.

    As someone who struggles with depression, this is terrifying. Just the thought of seeking out help from a medical professional and their response being “have you considered killing yourself?” really discourages me from having an open, honest conversation with my healthcare provider.
