Anxiety/panic attack

Hey guys yesterday i got my first shot of sustanon at around 2 pm, but at night i experienced an anxiety panic attack, my heart palpitations whent sky high, my breathing rate increased, i thought i was going to die really.

I live alone so i was was scarred sh*tless for about 3 minutes then the panic attack was over.

So im thinking here, could this be anyway related to the sustanon since i only took the first shot today ?


Should i take my other shot of sust on thursday or will it result on another anxiety attack ?
 
I used to get anxiety every time I did a shot. A couple hundred shots later and I barely even think about it. For me it did help to not look while I was pushing the plunger down, and stop half way through if necessary to calm down while leaving the needle in.

Good luck bro
 
Yes this could have a lot to do with it. I think you should talk to swole. He has been dealing with problems like this for a wile. Or hard rock he seems to know a thing or 2 about it.
 
Hmm, I never had a panic or anxiety attack from the shot itself...shit I get excited when I plunge myself :evil: I only had major anxiety issues on EQ, but if you're prone to it then I would assume any AAS can trigger anxiety. There really wasn't much I could do except tell myself it was in my head. The chest pains and heart palpitations sucked, god I will never touch EQ again. After I got off that cycle I hopped on some derma then went on an HCG regime. I felt amazing, like a new man. Now I'm on test enanthate and primo...I feel like a fucking gorilla.

If you assume the problem is the sus shot then you're likely to have another attack whether it's the true culprit or not. I know test levels elevate even after long-ester test shots so maybe it's your body's method of reaction. Try it again and see how it goes.

How's the bp? A visit to the doc doesn't hurt...no need to tell him about the juice just yet. See if there's an underlying problem (most likely not) besides generalized anxiety. Maybe hearing a doc say there's nothing wrong with your heart will help alleviate the problem.

Feel free to PM me with anything bro.
 
My thoughts are that this ANXIETY/PANIC that everyone talks about is merely adrenaline. I don't have the time to get into what I've been through in the last 9 months, but testosterone, and the adrenals are very interconnected. Not just testosterone but any anabolic/androgenic agent. Don't worry, you will not Die, and you are not in any danger. I've recently been put on a beta blocker. It seems that I have run on adrenaline or much larger amounts of it my entire life, due to low dopamine/norepinephrine levels in my brain.

Here;s a little cut and paste for your reading enjoyment.

Norepinephrine (INN) (abbreviated norepi or NE) or noradrenaline (BAN) is a catecholamine with dual roles as a hormone and a neurotransmitter.

Norepinephrine is synthesized from dopamine by dopamine β-hydroxylase.[2] It is released from the adrenal medulla into the blood as a hormone, and is also a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and sympathetic nervous system where it is released from noradrenergic neurons. The actions of norepinephrine are carried out via the binding to adrenergic receptors.

As a stress hormone, norepinephrine affects parts of the brain where attention and responding actions are controlled. Along with epinephrine, norepinephrine also underlies the fight-or-flight response, directly increasing heart rate, triggering the release of glucose from energy stores, and increasing blood flow to skeletal muscle.

You're pretty much right on the money Monkey. There can be a million things that trigger it, but it is a response from the adrenaline release. If you were about to jump out of a plane, it would feel normal. But when you are giving an injection, driving, or just sitting on the couch, it feels like you are going to die.

They treat panic many times with SSRI's. But for me what worked best is Adderall.

Regardless, what you had goodbro was a textbook panic attack. I have had hundreds of them and they suck. This may do little for you if it happens again, but just remember that they won't hurt you. Don't further it by fighting it or panicking worse. Go run down the street or do as many pushups as you can or anything to take your mind off it. But something physical at least will utilize the adrenaline.

Relax your breathing and just chill. Try not to worry about another one happening. That's anticipatory anxiety. You almost worry it into happening. Am I going to have one here. Will people see me. Good luck.
 
I think he's saying he took a shot at 2pm and then at night had a panic attack. Most of these answers assume he paniced during or shortly after the shot. He needs to tell us if he is prone to these attacks or if this was the first one he's had.
 
wow thanks for the answers boys. I never had a panic attack in my life so last night was a pretty hard hit on me. And as swole said the hard palpitations and chest pain are really a big motherf*cker.

I dought it was sust, because that was the first shot of my cycle, maybe too little t start any reaction.

And i not gonna lie, i have a 'weak' mind and all the problems just made it worse, last year was a dificult year, and this year i have just been thinking alot, specially when i hit bed time.

ST8grad, thanks for the advice too, when it occurred, i just start walknig the whole house about 5 times and i could come to a chill.

my next shot is on thursday, and im not worried, now i know what happened to me, and that im not gonna die, FRIDAY i will let you guys know how it went for me, maybe it had nothing to do with the sus right ......

thanks anyway, and for all of those who have or had panic attacks, they suck, but be strong.
 
Take it from a panic attack veteran, panic attacks are hit or miss for sure... they can happen moments after a shot, even if you're perfectly calm...or excited (in a good way)... they can happen an hour later or a day later... there is definitely a connection between the entire A A S process and panic attacks... best thing is to convince yourself that you're truly not dying (because that's what it always feels like)... drink some water...walk around... call someone... a neat little trick is to pinch yourself in various spots a bunch of times... the pain from it detracts your mind from the actual attack.

If you're prone to attacks or anxiety in general, keep that in mind when considering A A S... it likely will get worse.
 
You're probably just psyching yourself out bro. Sust doesn't cause anxiety so its most likely all in your head.

Someone told me once that 99% of your worries never come true. Hope that helps.

you my friend are prone to bouts of anxiety, talk to a doctor or rough it out.

its not easy i know
 
better yet try a little clonazepam, like zan-x its made for anxiety, but has a gradual build up, and come down slow, unlike zannies which spike high then drop like a mofo....clonazepam is good if you experience attacks on the regular if its just from the shot try zanx
 
Dude, I know EXACTLY how you feel. I was diagnosed with severe panic attacks years ago. It had gotten soo bad that i actualy passed out on 3 seperate occasions. I know for a fact that aas can make it worse. But, now I carry one zanax in my pocket all the time, just in case. I have gotten to the point that I can usualy tell when I am going to have one. I try to get to someplace cooler, not so crowded and noisy and drink some cold water. It helps. I have actually had to leave the gym during some kick ass workouts from anxiety attacks. My advice,... see a doctor. If nothing else, you can start understanding what is triggering the attacks and keep lifting. Take care. Good luck.

I've been taking clonazepam for a few months now. Before that was on Xanax for about 2 years and Paxil for 6 years prior. SSRI's suck. Xanax feels good, but you get withdrawls daily. Clonazepam works best for me.


I have had panic attacks so bad that when I was in my early 20's I once went to the emergency room in tears cause I thought I was having a heart attack and dying. They told me take a seat and an hour later when they called on me it was gone. Fuckin ER'

Best thing is to keep your mind occupied. Do math in your head or on paper. Play video games. Do smething physical. Just don't think about it or it snowballs. I KNOW it won't kill me when I have an episode now, but every now and then I still get a good one that scares the shit outta me, but mostly it's just a tight chest and hard to swallow. Almost choke. Feel like my throats closing off.

Good luck bro, and don't let them put you on any SSRI's IMO.

Agree!
You can learn when you are about to have one. THINK positive!!
 
Are heart palpitations anxiety related? When I did my first cycle with test cyp I woke up in the morning at around 4 and it was the heart palpitations that woke me up. They scared the shit out of me. I took an asprin and went back to bed and they finally stopped. My point is I was sleeping, can you have an anxiety attack while you are sleeping?

exact same thing happened to me a while back

i thought i was dieing..pretty freaky..while im sleeping my heart was beating so hard that it actually woke me up..i woke up the way people get up in the movies when they have a bad nightmare..felt like i was having a heart attack ro something
 
Does anyone else get panic attacks when they get a haircut? lol

Sounds funny but years ago when I had bad anxiety I would always get them while in the barber chair. I think it had to do with the sound of the clippers or having someone stare at me. I don't know. lol

For some reason I don't have anxiety anymore. I think I more or less learned how to control it. Never took any meds or anything.
 
To have them while asleep is more common than you would think!
Certain things will trigger them. You learn to live with them and how to control them..

Used to happen to me all the time. I've had to many panic attacks in my time, and each time you think this will be the one, game over, but that never happens. You learn to just wait them out. Now even in the midst of them I try and laugh at myself because I know how ridiculous it is, even as real as it may feel.
 
Heart palpitations are skipped or irregular beats not just a racing heart, so it does not hurt to get checked out for arrythmias or some other potential underlying problem.

Completely agree with this....I still get them now...and after all these years, they don't get any less scary. They often happen with no rhyme or reason, even when calm. Just have to cope.
 
Its good to know im not the only one around hehe. That was my first and only panic attack, i did get anxious on wensday night when i hot the bed i started thinking bout a million things, so i turned on the tv and managed myself.

Today i will get my second shot of sust, in bout 1 hour, not nervous just scared that when the night comes i get surprised by another attack. Its horrible....
 
I used to get panic and anxiety attacks so bad I would totally freak out.
A Dr. should really do a work up to see if something is up with your thyriod, BP, heart. 75% of the time it's your brain playing tricks on you. Unfortunately when that happens the body react and shoot out some extra go juice
Your heart rate goes up. Start to sweat. You get major nervous....

It certainly could be a chemical imbalance. It was for me. But most the time it's in your head .
 
Wow I didn't realize how many people are having these problems. I personally haven't had any thank god, I think I would freak out. I wonder how many are having this problem and how many aren't ? I would like to find the relation to the problem, what kind of diets are being consumed? and how much juice/body weight? I bet the underlying problem is diet and overdosing, IMO. I know people that had add/adhd and would suffer from such attacks, it was fixed by eating a balanced diet. They had a chemical imbalance from not being able to rid toxins which was caused from not eating the correct things

No brother, see in my case i have a clean clean diet, i mean really really clean, and for the amount of juice, im sure im using as little as you can, you see, this is my second cycle, and the first time im using sustanon, and im in my second shot of 250 mg week. SO 500 mg of sust week is as little as you can get.
 
You should definitely check your blood pressure and resting heart rate to rule out physiological causes.

Panic anxiety disorder is pretty mysterious. We don't really know what causes it. It can appear out of nowhere and, fortunately, it frequently disappears for no explainable reason.
 
UPDATE !

yesterday (friday) i took my second sustanon shoot, and when the night came a was ok no panic attacks at all, but i did feel anxious for a long time, chest pains were the bitch, i woke on chest pains today aswell....

In my previous cycle of anavar i had no such problems, so i kow itis sustanon the cause, so should i change drugs and see how my body react ? i cannot get hand of test ethan, but i can get test cyp, should i try test cyp ?
