PCT and very depressed. When will it end...

[singletonin2013]

I recommend meditation my friend, it has helped me tremendously, as the matter of fact it makes all the difference in my life, I don't mean anything too complicated, just pretty much, close the door, turn down the light, close your eyes and clear your mind, the trick at the beginning is that you can't stop thinking, and if you tell yourself to stop thinking, then hey, you're thinking!! Clearing your head is key at the beginning, then you can move on to other forms of meditation, it is difficult at the beginning as anything else, but with about a month of practice you'll be a pro, you will be able to close your eyes anywhere and enter into a small trance where you clear your head and only think positive, great things of how you want your life to be, I understand this sounds weird to a lot of people, I know there is so much taboo involved in all this, specially for those whom have been diagnosed with clinical depression, but the one typing this used to be severely depressed for so long it got to the point that I was convinced that I would have to get used to living life in those conditions and had very negative thoughts about it, not anymore, not at all, not even a little bit, I've done 5 cycles so far and only equipoise gives me anxiety but again, I recognize where is coming from and stop the process on the spot, but I still try to keep equipoise to a minimum (don't wanna tempt the devil, namean??), only reason I am taking the time to write this and don't really care about what people say is because I understand what you are going through and in my case, single, I was open to any and every suggestion anyone gave me to get through that hell my life was, boy am I glad I listened. Good Luck!!

Im actually in psycotherapy man. A little hookie but I always come out relaxed!

Im thinking about ordering some Aromasin right now and throwing a low dose of that in. Good idea? or no? I really dont want to start adding anymore compounds. Just keep the nolva going at 20 mg i guess

As menetioned in the sticky, PCT isn;t a sure-fire thing. And if you do it half-assd you can't expect much. UNLEASHED is just one PART of PCT. It gives you the most FReeT possible, but if your HPTA isn;t producing anything, that won't make much of a difference.

I'm not a big fan of Tribulus, unless it's the bulgarian.

All in all, it takes time. Recovery is all about not abusing the cycle, not doing to much or the wrong compounds and implementing PROPER PCT. It isn't just taking a few pills and expecting to be 100% right away.

Give it time.

I forgot to mention my nipples are hard and my cheeks are starting to feel bloated... has the estrogen rebounded or something?

I suffer from depression and it does get nasty for about a week during my PCT.

It may be your PCT.

What I do is run HCG M and Th after my last shot for two week. I then start clomid 50ED for for 4 and some supplements like Unleashed. Nolva is good but I do not like using it in isolation. Everythign I have read, including talks I have had with HRT docs, states that HCG is a necessity for PCT, that is why I use it. (I also use it 500ius during the cycle on Monday and Thurs).

Other supplements that have helped are 5HTP. St. Johns Wart takes about 30 days to kick in so if you use that in conjunction with AAS start using St. Johns wart at least 30 days before you end your cycle.

I also use other supplements during PCT. Like phosphatidyl syrine for cortisol control and Vitamin D. Also I use some nootropics like Piracetam, choline bitarate and vincopitine. These supplements have some ancillary benefits by increasing mental cognition and blood flow to the brain etc. Also take fish oil. That has cognitive benefits. Play around with the nootropics and the dosages. They have different effects on each of us.

Stay active, stay away from activities that increase or trigger depression, and try to keep a positive attitude.

Yes, 12.5mg ED of aromasin would be beneficial.
Should help stimulate some LH, lower estro and increase total test.

It may take a week for the positive effects to unfold, give it more than a week..

Aromasin is a great PCT item.
