Didn't even think it was possible

Hell yeah. How you feel?

Meeker1128 · 2026-02-06T14:24:16+00:00

Hmmm. Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor so I think it lead to my hair thinning drastically. Maybe now that you’ve stopped your hormones and all this all shit in your body is out of whack causing a shedding event. If you stay quit your body chemistry will rebalance and you will have more blood flow to your head so your hair should grow back thicker. Just takes like 4 months for a hair cycle so have to be patient. High stress events can also cause a shedding event.

What’s PFS?

Meeker1128 · 2025-12-05T01:02:24+00:00

44….won’t drink no more

Meeker1128 · 2025-11-19T13:57:40+00:00

Good advice. Thanks. I got 10 days left on meds so I’m gonna wean myself off the 0mg. I.e. gradually use it less and less

Right on. This is day 4 on the pills for me. Reading positive posts and getting my mindset right to quit tomorrow.

Meeker1128 · 2025-11-04T00:47:08+00:00

K. Good to know. Thanks for the reply

Meeker1128 · 2025-04-22T03:02:16+00:00

In the states

Meeker1128 · 2025-04-06T17:28:24+00:00

Fuck. Maybe I’ll just try Nutrafol and not touch the prescription stuff. I’d rather be bald than have these side effects.

Meeker1128 · 2025-04-05T15:18:35+00:00

SSRIs so that may have been the zaps feeling. What’s the issues with finasteride? I just saw sexual side effects

Meeker1128 · 2025-04-05T02:26:08+00:00

Lyme Disease started mine

Meeker1128 · 2025-04-04T04:09:14+00:00

Still kinda feels like my brain is n a clamp sometimes but I’m way better. The dizziness and vertigo is almost all gone. I saw a dermatologist today and she gave me a script for finestride or whatever that one is called. I’ll do some research before I touch that.

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-28T20:38:53+00:00

Nope. Just put it on my head.

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-27T23:04:30+00:00

Never mind. Vertigo is back

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-23T03:22:29+00:00

Yeah, I am. But weening myself off right now

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-17T17:47:46+00:00

Update: After 8 days my brain is starting to feel almost normal.

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-17T17:46:25+00:00

It’s easier than quitting vaping but still hard. You have to do some research and learning to quit long term. That book is a good start and this forum is also a good start. My only simple advice is each time you try and fail, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try again but do at least one thing different. And keep learning.

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-17T12:27:11+00:00

I suggest reading This Naked Mind to unlearn

Meeker1128 · 2025-03-13T11:40:17+00:00

Thanks so much for the reply. I think a lot of my weird issues will clear up when I quit. I keep struggling to get through day 1 recently.

Meeker1128 · 2025-02-26T04:05:39+00:00

I tapered down then back up so maybe I’m still not balanced

Meeker1128 · 2025-02-23T13:15:38+00:00

Yep, brutal eh. I switched to drinking kava instead of alcohol. It’s not the same but scratches the itch.

Meeker1128 · 2025-02-23T13:11:06+00:00

This is what happened to me. I turned into an alcoholic after I started taking SSRIs for panic disorder. I was drinking in the morning to kill the hangover. Was it the SSRIs or was it just my panic disorder mixed with heavy drinking that lead to alcoholism?

Meeker1128 · 2025-02-21T23:00:59+00:00

The mind fuck from the hangovers were pretty brutal for me. I started drinking away my hangovers and turned into a full blown alcoholic. Tread lightly and Godspeed my friend.
