anxiety and AAS

[swole]

I am about to use eq as part of my cycle and I've read many people complain about anxiety.

In the past I've gotten anxiety during a prohormone cycle. I had my bp and values checked, all normal and healthy. It happened mostly while I was sitting down or driving, my chest would feel tight and my stomach would get a little upset. The second I stopped thinking about it symptoms would subside. My heart rate was always normal, it just felt like it was beating hard. Symptoms came and went by the day...I'd say they lasted for one week out of my 8 week cycle.

is xanax the only answer?

Any suggestions to help me prepare?

Hey Bro
Everyone is different, EQ did not bother me a bit as far as anxiety, I had an anxiety issue with winstrol which does not bother most people. Try it and see, if you have issues you could drop it and try something else.

Xanies are not the answer but they sure help! I have trouble sleeping on cycle and I drop one a half hour before bed.

Good luck

I'm currently taking 600 mg eq and once in a while I get kinda like blurry or tunnel vision and a little shortness of breath but it don't last very long but sometimes can be intense.

I have been seeing a shrink for over 20 years for anxiety and depression


Have taken most gear and gear does not increase my anxiety, test actually reduces my anxiety.

Androgens can influence mood GREATLY it crazy sometimes

EQ while not like test will do this to.

Things that help are Hard core training, assuring a good night sleep, and possibly supps.

ps also dont go past 400-600 ITS NOT NEEDED especially if stacked

EQ is crazy in the endurance it gives

anxiety is a side that has been assocaited with roid use.

xanax and other benzos can be helpful on an "as needed" basis (even just the thought that you have "anxiety medicine" on hand can reduce anxiety) especially if its only going to affect you for one week out of 8 (ie big deal...just pop the pill and shush, so long as it doesnt interfere with driving/sleeping/trining) but that being said, i greatly favour non drug measures of reducing anxiety, like meditation, self affirmations, soothing music, doing things taht trigger comfort (watching favorite movie, sitting in favorite chair)

also, avoid such things as caffiene and other stimulants, since they often make you edgy and make stuff worse

either way, this isnt life or death, swole- youll be cool

I have high anxiety and take 100mg of zoloft everyday. I also take about 1450mg in gear. I feel calm as can be.but if i drink coffee i am very edgee. every body is different. know what your body can handle.

I've had anxiety issues and have Lorazepam and Xanax on hand. I started my first EQ cycle 4 weeks ago and I didn't think I had any additional axiety problems.
Someone else mentioned tunnel vision, and I have had that sensation several times recently so maybe there is a connection between EQ and anxiety.

How was that movie?

I had the same thing start in my 5th week of first Test E cycle,laid awake at night listening for my heart to pound really hard like it would occasionally,would wake me up at night as well,so after a week or so, I went to see my Dr. who is a Cardiologist,Ekg,bloodtests,bloodpressure all normal,he gave me script for a beta blocker,I never took them,but knowing everything was okay with my health,it pretty much went away.At least I stopped thinking about it so much,that helped the most.

Somebody say Xanax?

 

[DannoMight]

Oh yeah I also smoke weed daily to calm my nerves. I can't handle xanies. They fuck my shit up. But a couple hits of dodi and I'm all good and ready to eat.

I went to the doc for the same reason, but I front loaded my cycle with a prohormone that should be stacked with test (M1T). Everything was normal on me, so I decided to just stick it out. Knowing it was in my head made it easier. Like solidspine said, test brings my anxiety down anyways, so I'm sure stacking my EQ with cyp will be beneficial for that reason amongst others. I'm going to keep a few meds on hand just in case.

Thanks for all the input fellas.

im gonna be giving eq a try this time. test and primo never made me anxious, they actually calmed my anxiety down. if the q does make me nervous ill probably just smoke a little weed to calm me down. the real test then will be when i run the tren in october.

 

[all the whey]

Test brought my anxiety up my last cycle. But, I may have had my E too low.

if you recognize it as anxiety you can try to control it. i just sit back, breathe deep and tell myself exactly what it is & that it's gonna pass in a few minutes. breathing techniques and yoga are good for this.
