seishunOn Monday the 15th I took my last dose of spiro. On Tuesday I took my first dose of finasteride. Took it again on Wednesday. That was the last time I took it, because both times it caused HORRIBLE depressions, the worst I've ever suffered. On Thursday, Dr Maddie told me to just go off anti-androgens, and to call her if things got bad.
Yesterday I set an appointment with her for the 14th of April, because things are bad.
I'm reverting to the way I used to be. My volatile temper is back, in spades. I blow my top over the least little thing. I'm scaring myself. My emotions are closing down again, locked away behind a testosterone haze. And my body has started to smell male again. It's all going horribly wrong, and far faster than I thought it might. I've only been off anti-androgens for a week and I'm back to being Bruce again. It's only the estrogen that's holding off the body dissonance.
But hey, at least I'm not suffering those horrible, finasteride-induced depressions anymore, right?
