depression and anxiety when coming off.

[BIGBALLS]

has anyone experienced any of this when they come off a cycle...I do not mean depressed from losing size I mean do you ever feel like your body is all out of whack??
I have been off a major cycle for about a month now and I am starting to feel unhappy during the days and depressed at night...and I am in the prime of my life...good money good women good job...!! what the fuck??/ Do you think it is steroid related??

Post cycle depression is one of the common side effects of using gear. I get depressed after hardcore cycles high in androgenic compounds. I feel unmotivated, unhappy, irritable, decreased libido, etc. Sometimes it feels like I gotta push myself through the day. GOD I HATE It....But what can you do? Good news is it goes away afetr a month or so. Just hang in there, bro and wait it out.

 

[BIGBALLS]

thanks bro!!!!!

HCG works well for me at bringin the natural test levels back to normal and helping with post cycle depression. Maybe you should research it?

 

[MaxBiceps]

No prob

 

[BIGBALLS]

I am using proviron right now but i will look into hcg!!
I havnt had to deal with depression since I quit nubain so this is freaking me out a little....sucks when nothing gets you excited you know...o.k. off to research it...I have some profassi 5oooiu too!!

 

[Darksun]

It sucks the big one...
I suggest about 250mg a day of Tramadol (Ultragan)... While this is a non-opiate pain relief derivative... It has been show in a study in Spain to significantly enhance Dopamine secretion...
No fucking shit bro -- your enthusiasm will increase exponentially...

 

[M.O.D]

the more cycles you get under your belt the better you will deal with these affects.

think positive

proviron is far from your best choice when coming off . Use your HCG and get some clomid ( drop the proviron ) . Get that Profassi into your system ASAP and youll start to feel better. ( I like Horny goat weed / Maca from Pinnacle performance also ) .

 

[str8cubano]

yea, once you get the clomid and all that good stuff, just think mentally that you'll be ok....hit the gym even if you dont feel like it, and remember mind over matter, your test levels will get back to normal and you'll be fine

I think he said it best. BTW, stay away from anti-depressants and st john's wort.
That stuff sucks.

 

[BIGBALLS]

Thanks for the help guys...
no anti depressents either...my doc tried to get me on them mos ago when I quit the bain but I am glad I got thru without...one less thing to feel dependent on!

I feel post cycle depression until I start the Clomid. It's amazing how it balances me out!

 

[skippy]

I have been through the same thing, my last cycle was the worst...gonna get some HCG for the next one....it's gettting better slowly...just gotta will your way through it....and get ready for the next one

 

[BIGBALLS]

It has been about 4 weeks since my last injection of primoteston, is it to late to start clomid?

Anyone that needs info on post cycle care ( ie clomid, hcg etc) do a search on mustang18. He knows alot about this. Helped me out bigtime.

With the right attitude you can come out on top everytime.

it dewpresses me when I know I have only 3 weeks more to go

 

[thefacelessballer]

after my first cycle i was a wreck.. i lost alot of weight and strenght.... after this cycle that i just finished.. even though i was sick right when i started clomid.. i feel great.. im not depressed. im really happy, and have lost hardly any strenght.. i

 

[Spunky]

u need to start clomid ASAP if u haven't. I still feel depressed and get anxiety symptons after every cycle its almost a paranoia feeling.. hard to explain. But it eventually goes away.....

Good luck!

Hey Bro, I deal with the same shit........it sucks but you can Beat it......My best advice is to break the cycle of negative thinking and push your self to go workout ..whether it be lifting or cardio.......I was told that it is p impossible to be phsyically active,as in some form of exercise, and remain depressed for that period.
My oersonal experience is that this is true...No matter how down I get or how tough it is I make myself head to the gym....the results are worth it.....I take prozac which helps...but it is not a cure and often when you first start a med it can make you feel funky then the sides will let up.....


Take care Bro and remember you count.

Hey Bro, Great Post!....I thought I was going crazy, I have been of my cycle for a few weks now and I have the same feelings..I have been very depressed and tired and I have definatley had a decrease in sex drive.....I have missed a few days from the gym as well, because of lack of motivation....I am glad someone asked...It is posts like this that educate......

 

[BIGBALLS]

I am starting the clomid tonight....
I have 20 tabs...any ideas how the best way to use them effectivly? do I have enough to help me feel better?

post cycle depression

The post cycle depression is mostly a function of low testosterone levels. Start hCG about a week after the last inj of test for about 4 weeks, then begin clomid and taper the hCG. You should be fine. hCG gets the testicles going and clomid gets things going at a higher level to reset the system.

Bigballs,

"The" Clomid program is as follows - straight from m18:

day1: 300mg ( 100 in am/100 at noon /100 at dinner )
days2-7: 100mg/day
days 8-14: 50mg/day
days 15-21: 50mg e.o.d.

Even with this , my sex drive and motivation was fucked up for the 1st 14days. Next cycle I will do 5000 iu on same day i start the clomid. I think i'll pick up alittle viagra as a security blanket just in case

I've heard heavy squats and deadlifts help kickstart your gonads - we'll see.

goodluck

i think too many people on gear think more about what physical side affects they could get than the psychological affects
