Post Cycle Depression

[TheStromba]

Hoping you good brothers can help.

My last cycle was Wk 1-4 30mg dbol
1-10 500mg Test Cyp
1-10 400mg Deca

2 Weeks after last shot 1000IU HCG ed for 10 days.
5 days into HCG I did 100mg Clomid ED for 1 week and 50mg week 2

I have been off clomid for 5 days.

The Clomid gave me many of the mood swings that a lot of guys report. Now it seems I'm having some pretty serious depression. It seems I have kept most of my gains, but I really don't even care. I have a lot of the "classic" symptoms of depression. The easiest thing to do is go back on, but I don't want to start that vicious cycle. I have said and done some fucked up things in the last few weeks.

Has this happened to you ? If so, how long did it last ?

Paxil and related drugs fuck with my sex function. Not what I need right now.

Help a brother out.

go to the store and pick up some 5HTP and St johns wart, begin taking that for the next few days at the recommended doseage and your mood swings will dissapear.

The best thing after a cycle is to take a one week break from the gym and do things you love.

Agreed, for me it started toward the end of my cycle(I was getting anxiety/depression from the fina I think) and lasted for 2-3 weeks post cycle. Finally my hormone levels and everything stabilized and I was alright, but it was pretty rough. I was pretty unmotivated for a couple weeks afterward because of my energy loss and gains halting. Things werent going well in other areas of my life to and it was just a mess (if you didnt notice, I didnt post on elite for a few weeks...I pretty much did nothing). Now I have finally pulled myself back together and am setting new PR's and dieting/training hard. Good luck with whatever you decide to use, and just as 2thick said, try and find something that makes you happy and just go with that.

When you feel like this, It's hard to find love in anything you do. I usually get a lot of satisifacton out of playing my baby grand, but just have not been in the mood.

It has been a bit harder to get to the gym and train hard, but I am still getting satisifacion out of getting that done.

I am most worried about this lasting MONTHS instead of few weeks. I started taking the 5HTP today, I have xanax on hand.

I hope I am rounding the corner soon......
