Tiredness on Dianabol

[davos82]

I've just started my first cycle (3 days ago) and am currently taking 30mg of Dianabol per day. At the moment i am sweating quite easily but mainly suffer from being very sleepy. I can have a full 9 hrs sleep but then need to sleep for another our or so during the day!

Is this normal/temporary?

Thanks

It's called lethargy. It happens and it's fairly common. Force yourself to MOVE!!!!!

 

[ricorico]

i always take xenadrine for energy before workouts, or ill just drink a pot of black coffee

i was on 50 mg/day of dbol like a month ago and i was always real lethargic but felt good too, like euphoric.

very normal, another reason dbol and me dont like eachother.. as chef said, gotta force yourself to move though..

My very first cycle earlier this year was basically:

wks 1-4: Thai dianabol (S&A) 25mg ed
wk 5: 30mg dianabol ed
wk 6-7: Clomid therapy
wks 1-5: ALA, NAC, Milk Thistle


I had lethargy into this too. Some days really bad like I felt like I didn't want to do anything at all. It was only temporary though. Note that this was my first experience with steroids.

yep get used to it, sucks big time

 

[davos82]

Well at least i know i wasn't sold fakes haha!

Another seven weeks of falling asleep like a baby - my girlfriend will kill me!

It won't last- its temporary- I also had a few days where I felt "hung over" (best way I can explain it) but I don't drink any alcohol at all- not even wine or anything like that. That was temporary too. Just keep trying to get to the gym would be my advice.

Oh I'm a big time coffee drinker though- I think coffee is God's gift to mankind... lol... actually i think coffee is great because it is a natural stimulant and it actually forces water out of your system. I had some ephedrine tabs (still do) but for some reason when I started with the gear I didn't really feel it at all (I feel it tremendously training natural though) so I just used coffee and aspirin.

Oh- I'm not sure how long you are planning to stay on it but I did alot of research on EF boards and its generally agreed that 4-5 weeks is the best.

did u guys keep any of the gains u made from a 4-5 week dbol only cycle????

yeah actually. not all but it was kind of a two steps forward, 1 1/2 step back, so no matter what im stronger now than before i did the cycle, plus coming off is awesome because you lose all the shitty water and keep most of the muscle so you look ripped.

 

[marshabrady]

Yes... Strangely I kept just about all of them- I ate alot during the cycle I think that is primarily why I made some quality gains. But also the PCT I used was Clomid Therapy and I think that helped too. I didn't lose a pound of it... I'm into my second cycle this year now- which I started about five weeks after that d-bol only cycle.

I think dianabol is really effective even at the low dosages I was using. The cycle I'm currently on I used at 30mg ed (mainly because BD makes these 10mg tabs) for the first four weeks.

Yeah, "hung over" is a good way to describe it. Very tired, thirsty, irritable and a bit of a sore throat.

I am planning; week 1-6 30mg D-bol, week 5-8 20mg Winstrol, week 9 30mg Novladex, week 10 + 11 20mg Novladex. (your input would be appreciated as i'm a steroid virgin!)

I must admit i drink a fair bit of coffee especially at work when most tired. Once i get my lazy ass in the gym i'm fine though!!

try 500mgs test weeks 1-10
30mgs dbol week 1-6
.....gotta have that test

I am new to this also although I have been training naturally since the late 1980's. I always enjoyed training naturally although I knew about steroids I steered clear because I was enjoying myself. That five weeker I posted was my very first cycle.

Check out the Nolvadex thread here I also posted in it... I think its a few threads down from this one- its relatively new.

Hey if you are not running NAC, ALA and Milk Thistle go to your GNC and buy them now! Those vitamins help tremendously during d-bol cycles (do a search on EF boards). They are extremely beneficial and affordable add-ons.

 

[boogersnax]

My experience has been the stress on the liver from the d-bol is the cause of the lethargy. I would recommend adding milk thistle to your diet. It is good for you. I like taking orals at bedtime. Your liver goes through a natural detox process while you sleep. Taking milk thistle at bedtime will also do a lot of good.

This works for me but I don't suppose this will work for all. I'm starting my 4th week of anadrol and have not felt better.

if it lasts for a longer time have your liver values checked

Afraid of needles?

 

[bigmann245]

thats why i switched to anadrol. big difference in my opinion. not as tired anymore.

 

[davos82]

Afraid of needles? - YEP

Might try the Milk Thistle!
