equipoise and anxiety problems

I';m currently on 1g test/week, and 700 mg eq/week, I don't get any sides from test except occasional headaches, but lately since i added the eq (about 2 1/2 weeks ago) I've been waking up in the middle of the night with severe anxiety problems, It's so bad I cant;' sit still in bed, keep tossing and turning and finally have to get up, go downstairs so i don't keep my girl up. I've actually had to take a sedative to calm down the past 4 nights in a row after waking up. its weird, i can fall asleep fine, stay asleep about 3 hours, and then the anxiety hits. jsut wondering if its the eq and it anyone else has had this problem with eq or any other aas, and what did you do to fix it? thanks for any advice you can give, I really need some help here.
 
I had the same problem when I upped my dose from 600mg to 800mg/wk. I would try backing off a bit, try 500/mg wk and see if you notice a difference.
Good luck.
D
 
Never had this prob with EQ, but winny on the other hand really messed me up. Could not fall/stay asleep, anxiety... I ran it for 8 weeks and hated the feelings of anxiety but got great results from it.
BTW, I know that this is rare for winny but it did affect me like no AAS I have used in the past.

peace

I had this problem at 800 mg/week. It was so bad I just stopped. I'm currently giving it another try at 400 mg pw. Hopefully I can avert the sides. It was pretty bad and I don't have access to xanax or anything like that.
 
wow, i didn't know you could wake up in a anxiety attack. maybe thats what it was a few weeks ago with me, i woke up with 165bpm hr and went to the er. they said my magnesium and potassium was a little low. was on test prop, i thought the juice was killing me but it wasn't the juice. psvt, low k and mag, and or anxiety? now im wondering cause i have anxiety. eq fucked my brother up, couldn't sleep for shit
 
I had this problem on 600 mg/wk for the first few wks, but it went away around the 3rd wk. Give it a little more time.
 
I remember having additional anxiety and panic attacks on EQ, and eating a lot of cheesecake, although both unrelated to each other,

The anxiety subsided after about 3-4 weeks, the cheesecake dilemma, well I think that is permanent.
 
In my younger days if I went past 600 mgs of test every 4 days I'd get heart palpitations and anxiety so bad I thought I was having a heart attack. After 2 trips to the ER in one month I had spent $4000 in Dr Bills and tests saying I was totally fine. The drs said it was all in my head. The $4000 bill immediately cured me of all symptoms from then on. lol
 
thanks for all the feedback guys, last night was the first night since the anxiety started that I slept through the night. Maybe my body is adjusting to it. I'm going to stay at this dose for a couple of more days and see what happens. If it doesn't subside considerably, then I'm going to lower the dose. I reallly appreciate the advice.

No problem, that's what we're hear for. But Cracker brought up a very important point. Much of this may be in our heads. I know sometimes when im lyin in bed at night watchin the idiot box my mind starts to wander and I'm like "hmm, yeah I'm on like 2500 mg of gear at once" then I start thinking about the thyroid stuff and stims I'm on and guess what, BAM, anxiety comes on full force. So just keep that in mind. Try and relax and come back with any further issues if they happen to arise. Best of luck

yea i agree.

EQ can really send you to the looney bin

i remeber driving 80mph on city streets to get the closest store cause i thought i was going hypo and needed sugar, but it was just part of the 12 weeks of sheer hell i had on eq

yuk!
 
I am running 600mg of EQ every week and not having any problems at all. Sorry to hear that you are bro :(
 
not trying to hijack your thread. but what other sides have you guys noticed on eq?
and what did you do about them?

doesnt it suck!


As much as I hate EQ I have 15 cc that im using up in a 2 phase cycle (just to spite myself I guess). I'm very aware this is nowhere near the normal length of an EQ cycle, but I've been hearing many things from competitors that I train with about alternating deca with eq 5 weeks/5 weeks/5 weeks deca/EQ/deca. Honestly, I'm just trying to get rid of it without trashing it, and at the very least I'll interupt the deca from it's quest to give me limp dick. But the point I'm trying to make is that I pinned 400 mg a few days ago and yesterday most of my day was full of intense anxiety. Probably all in my head, but man, I'm such a f'in masochist it's crazy.
 
My friend is running 600mg's for the first time and is going BONKERS. Just started today too (the symtoms), I'm gonna try to see if he can ride it out for awhile, if that doesn't work he'll have to ower the dose.

Ever since this thread surfaced I've been searching for a physiological explanation behind th anxiety linked with EQ use in some. Couldnt find anything. Anyone offer some hard facts??
 
EQ was terrible for me...the anxiety stayed with me for months post cycle!!

i had acess to valium or xanax at that time i could of nurtured myslef but didnt, i should have!!

Bro that's probably one of the best decisions you could have ever made. Those drugs you mentioned have been the downfall of so many guys I can't even tell you. They work sooo great but are so addictive. Bad news in the worst way.
 
Great. I have been on my first EQ run @600mg/wk for 5 weeks (of 20 weeks total) with no remarkable sides noted to date.

After reading this thread I am worried sick now about becoming anxious. When's it going to kick in? How long will it last? Is it going to affect my gains? Should I throw out all of the benzos in the house? What if my EQ is bunk and that's why I don't have the anxiety....

It's going to be a long night.

lol, alot of stuff running through your head. You sure its not giving you anxiety.
 
hmmm this is thread is putting me off eq.I am currently on 400 mg deca 500mg test cyp per week and i cannot sleep for shit. i was thinkin of using eq and cyp on my next course but im having douts. i might jus do a test only course or is this a bad idea? and also eq is very expensive compared to test around here
 
just to update everyone, the anxiety I was having subsided gradually over a few days, I guess my body was just getting used to the dose, but I'm ok now, and sleeping like a rock!

Great news, glad to hear it! Good luck with the rest of you run with the EQ!

Sweet. Looks like you averted the anxiety sides. I did 400 mg last week as part of my crossover from deca and back, and planned on continuing for 4 more weeks then hop back on low dose deca. Seeing someone with pre-existing anxiety avoid the sides at the same dosage as I'm using is encouraging. Thanks for sharing. How's the cycle going? Using anything else with it?
 
i think its a lot to do with reading these forums. One person has anxiety, then the newbies read it and assume the worst. Then go on all the boards and post how they had anxiety .... now EVERYONE has it.....bullshit....its fucking equipoise....RELAX. Get anxiety? GO TO THE FUCKING GYM AND TRAIN
 
I started out 570mg/week of eq - two pins per week to break it up. On the day of each pin, within a half hour, i felt like my bp skyrocketed and i was having anxiety attacks for the rest of the day. Heart rate was over 100 and nothing i did for the rest of the day would lower it back down or make me feel better. It would subside the next day. After the 3rd week, the feeling wouldn't go away the next day. It lasted for 3 days (up to my next pin), so I didn't use any EQ on that 2nd pin of the 3rd week and only got a half dose for the week. I felt better. I'm in my 4th week and cutting the dosage down to about 270mg for this week and will slowly raise it and see at what point the anxiety comes back. It was debilitating, so i can't deal with it again. I couldn't even work out. It felt like i'd have a heart attack and my body was already racing.

That sucks, and so does bumping old threads. Next time just start your own.
