Hi, thanks for that. A brief skim thru my blog will show you these crushing depressions or meltdowns occurred during the first few weeks of Degarelix. It's the lack of hormones. It's stayed with me throughout the 8months . Sometimes triggered yes but often not.
There's a piece where I was driving back from Swansea RT department and just had to slam on the brakes and stop for a good cry...minutes later....on we go .
Only a few have have been suicidal. One saw me start wrist cutting....but we won't go there.
I'm on mirtazapine and have accepted the six free counseling sessions via Macmillan and Bupa. I'm not sure they're going to help. I'm not really dealing with issues. It's all just biochemistry. It's great to have a caring guy to chat to for an hour and some positive actions have come out of this but stopping meltdowns, no.
The difference in longevity between men dying within ten years is just 3.6%....between those who do 6 months and those doing the 18 months.
My choice I know and I choose to live fully before the final bow.....
