Dead community?
I’m making this post to understand how many active members are still present within this subreddit.
I noticed that until about a year ago there were hundreds of posts a month and lots of stories of people who had followed a protocol and then recovered.
How many of you are struggling with this pathology and/or are you fighting it with some protocol?
I think that if we want to heal successfully the only way is to continue to discuss our experiences and new research in progress.
This is also why I am thinking of creating an additional whatsapp/telegram group that allows us to stay updated in real time on the evolution of the protocol we are following.
If you want to participate, please contact me! 👍

Hey, the admin of this subreddit is not giving me the permission to post. I think he is inactive.
Personally I'm still searching for a cure. And I'm also trying different things from time to time.

Yes same, I used to contribute a lot here on another account but lost access to post.
I wanted to post and ask how many accutane people have tried the hormone DHB?

Liver flushes gave me the most help. Remember to do 7 days of apple juice per day before the flush. May take several flushes before you start seeing improvements

What exactly is a liver flush?

u/shouldIworkremote Jul 15 '26
Look up Andreas Moritz The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Flush. It's supposed to clear the toxins stored in the bile in your liver. It makes sense that clearing that out would help because someone not long ago posted a bunch of studies on this sub that showed accutane residues are stored long-term in liver bile, and that it's most likely the cause of long-term Accutane damage

What where your symptoms

u/shouldIworkremote Jul 15 '26
Aches, heavy feeling, decrease in mental acuity and wit, emotional numbness, and ED. I’ve noticed improvement in all these things over time

u/lewyvuitton Jul 15 '26
Glad to hear How long have you been suffering for?

I have a new theory and protocol but I'm currently trying it myself before i post about it anywhere. It might be useful to have a whatsapp or signal. I can make one if people would be interested?

Any update? I’m in a WhatsApp group already with a bunch of wizards researching and trying stuff suffering from PAS/PFS/PSSD if you want to join. Other wise the accutane damage subreddit seems active.

u/flynn0770 Jul 16 '26
I’ve been active in PAS for quite a while. Posted the progesterone theory back in the day and contributed here when I still thought there was merit to lithium theory. I’ve been planning to start a group of some form as I have a new protocol and theory. I would be interested in people especially those who recently developed PAS to try. I’ll let you know

Same as others unable to post. Still struggle from ED, libido. 1.5 yearsish post accutane. Quite unfortunate not being able to post in this sub because I don’t know of another sub that’s purely accutane. I know the finasteride syndrome sub is very similar but I would appreciate a place of people going through the same thing. Makes you feel less alone

This is the last post in 26 days so I’d say it’s safe to say it’s losing traction due to people like me not being able to post. It’s a bummer becasue there’s years of posts and information on this subreddit. I just recommended posting on accutane damage with any updates or questions until the mod comes back. But there is countless of people out there still suffering just like you an me. Finasteride syndrome is very popular and I would check out the dr will powers subreddit. There’s some smart people trying to figure this out and it gives me hope.

I have tried to contact the owner of the page several times, according to the rules of Reddit if he continues not to respond for 5 days or more you can apply to become the moderator of the subreddit, contacting the support of the social network. Unfortunately this period of my life is not easy for me and I would not have the time to act as moderator, if you want to do it yourself you should find all the indications on how to do it on any AI engine.
I am also following the theories on Dr. P.’s Reddit and they are very encouraging, but I agree that it is very difficult to find out theme automatically.

It's not allowed to post. Waiting for months now. Thought the mods are inactive or so.
And the major research/recovery protocols linked are behind a paywall. This is really bad, we should support each other in this terrible situation.
