WTH? White Dude Turns Into A Black Dude After Taking Prozac

A Caucasian man's skin has turned black after a mystery reaction to a commonly prescribed anti-depressant.

Tyler Monk, from Louisiana, was prescribed Prozac in May 2021 following a diagnosis for depression and anxiety.

Within a week, the 34-year-old's his skin began changing to a grayish-blue color, even though it was having little effect on his mental health.

Mr Monk, a pest control field inspector, claims he stopped the medication after a few weeks — but his skin continued to darken.

First, his ears started to change color before it rapidly spread to his neck and his face - before affecting his arms and hands.

Mr Monk also experienced other symptoms such as extremely red, irritated eyes and his skin becoming very sensitive to the sun and feeling like it has been burned.

He admits to initially being 'in denial', but after speaking to two of his co-workers, Mr Monk accepted he was actually turning black.

Mr Monk has visited several specialists near the couple's home in the small town of Kinder, since the discoloration, but they have all been stumped.

Doctors have ruled out any serious diseases, poisoning and autoimmune conditions – but he claims they still can't tell what is causing the problems.
