Bi-polar illness and Steroids

What are the effects of Anavar and/or low dose primo given to female who is bi-polar? Would this cause a problem to her?

Not sure with anavar specifically. Infact im not even sure how well a psychaitrist would know. Being that ive asked one of the better ones in my province a similar question. Hes a very liberal doctor, and not entirely against steroid use. However he did mention that steroids (not just anabolic) had an effect on Serotonin uptake. Which of course is what the whole issue with bi-polarism is. Too much or too little free serotonin.
So could there be something. Maybe.
Also mentioned that he had several patients suffer from steroid-enduced mania. Again, steroid to a doctor dosent necessarily mean anabolic. but cautioned that it was a possibility being that they fuck with your serotonin receptors.
Thats all i know.

Hope it helps.

I would be very leary of giving a female roids that is bi-polar. Try to find some medical research on it bro. Good luck.

a bipolar chick (or guy for that matter) has enough shit to worry about without fucking with their hormones

i'd vote no

Ahh, my next book: Mania, Depression, and Dbol: The Truth!

I have to guess that the increased catecholamines and then corresponding crash is not a good idea. Is she rapid cycling?????

i also vote HELL NO. what are you gonna do when she hits a low so low that she will make your life a living hell?

trust us on this one carth! if anything feed her benzos and her required meds!!

her strength will SKYROCKET from the roids, on top of that bi polar patients have tremendous surges of energy as it is.

again i vote no

sHIT I DONT KNOW IF I'D WANT TO MESS WITH GEAR WHILE ON MEDS FOR BI POLAR???

how many times a week does she flip out carth?

Well this person is my wife. Most of the women in her family are bi-polar. Her mother and ONE of her sisters being the worst ones I know of. They get angry and then sad and then (TRY to ACT) happy and then blow up easily. And they love to sleep! And if its not that then what they like to do is unecessary shopping sprees or substance abuse like smoke marijuana or drink. And they tend to say and/or do the dumbest and weirdest things. Sometimes to the point that it annoys the shit out of you and/or angers you and/or baffles you. And they somehow DO NOT understand what they did and/or say was wrong! I've known my wife for 10 years already. Her behaviour was never as bad as that of all the females ( especially her mother and one of her sisters ) in her family. But for the past 1-2 years...her personality has begun to change for the worst. The signs of becoming like the rest of them is really starting to come out. And let me tell you...it isn't fun to live with! Don't get me wrong guys. I love this women to death! Of anybody I have ever met in my life, this person is the only one that understands me and respects me. We think a like very much in a lot of things. And I consider her like one of the guys. She has a guy type of attitude. Feminine but not too girly like the way us guys hate. Know what I mean? She is just a sweet heart and very loving and supportive. What more can I ask for in a women. Plus she is GORGEOUS! I just love her so much. But lately for the past 1-2 years it has become hard to like her. And sex is becoming almost scarce. I know most of us guys will fuck anything that looks good. However! I am not like that. I don't think with my dick but with my brain. I'm sorry guys but I cannot have sex with someone that is gorgeous but who gets irritating. Come one guys seriously! Would you have sex with someone who is beautiful but you find has a bad personality and makes you dislike them? And its not her fault! Its this damn curse that has been placed on her from birth that is affecting our relationship. She easily raises her voice. Gets agitated easily. Says things that make no sense to you but only in her mind it does. And the worst one is that when she is not on her bad side....she will TRY TO ACT like she is happy. But in reality she is not happy and instead becomes somewhat annoying. Both her and I have noticed her problems. She went to an endocronologist about 3 months back and the doc checked all her hormones. IGF-1, Test, Estro, Prolactin, Thyroid, Glucose etc etc. Everything came back fine. So immediately the doc told her that she was depressed and didn't even know it. So he prescribed her Lexapro. But she didn't want to get on those pills because of fear of having problems with withdrawal. Or having to depend on those pills for life just to remain sane. Not only that but the two sides that really backed her off from using it was weight gain and no sex drive. I always kind of figured out she was depressed and just didn't know it. I always told her this and she said she wasn't. But the doc said that she was. So then later on she decided to get a second opinion. This doc ran the same tests. Everything came back fine. And this doc told her that maybe she was depressed and that she should go see a pshyciatrist. IT'S OFFICIAL. I have a bipolar wife! The one illness that she claimed NEVER to have or ever get from her family has finally caught up to her. And the sad thing is that she can't do anything about to cure it, or prevent it. And it is something that I have to live with for the rest of my life. And the sad thing is that its not getting better but worse. And one of the things that saddens me is the following. We are all human beings. And human beings are easily influenced by what we see on TV or hear on radio or pick up from friends etc etc. Well, I was always a calm guy. But being with her and around her family for 10 years has changed me. The way she talks to me, you know....the attitude and whatnot...well...I'm doing it back to her. For every action there is a reaction. I truly believe that if you are around calm and joyful people 24/7, then you will act and feel the same way. But since I'm surrounded by this bipolar shit 24/7...I now act to her in the same way. So if I'm nice to her but she blows up...you know...after a while your just not going to take it and your going to yell back. See what I mean? Its like fighting fire with fire! The madness isn't going to stop. I try to stop but she continues and then I can't be mister nice guy anymore. I do not have plans of leaving her. I love her and want to be with her. Besides this bipolar shit...she has everything that I want in a women. So back to the question. Should she NOT use any gear? Not even Anavar or Primo? How bout Deca? EQ? But of course all low dose stuff.

Bro, sorry to hear this.

What kind of meds is she on? Lithium? Depekote?

The majority of manic depressives respond well to one or both of these two drugs. The problem is keeping them on their meds.

I had a long-time girlfriend who was manic, but she seemed completely normal AS LONG AS SHE WAS ON HER MEDS. When she went off, she became a different animal entirely. Mean, bad-tempered, full of rage, and so sexually aggressive that, I kid you not, she sometimes scared me. Try keeping it up when your gf looks like she wants to tear you in half.

Yet despite how bad she became while off her meds, there was almost nothing I could do to get her back on. She would say they made her tired or made her feel not like herself. And then eventually she would crater, have to be hospitalized, and we'd go through the recovery all over again. She'd be fine until she went off her meds again.

I finally had to get a restraining order when she came after me with a gun during one of her episodes. Haven't seen her since.
