emotional issues, post-cycle..HELP!!!!

dotcom · #1 (**permalink**) 07-29-2003, 02:18 PM

alright alright..I've been off the cycle for about a month and a half (Deca & Sust x 8 wks)..just wondering about how to get rid of these.."feelings" of re-occuring depression and being over-emotional about things which started approximately 1 month after the last shot. I must say I wasn't like this before. Pretty much being a little bitch about everything. Is there anything that can be taken for this? I have and tried using clomid for post-cycle therapy but didn't seem to help a whole lot. Any suggestions on what to do or is this normal or what??? Thanks for your help.

Its soo bad I think my marriage is at risk.

try novaldex instead of clomid on your next post cycle-i've heard other people complaining about this who were taking clomid..

Hey dotcom, have you sent out your blood to a lab? You may have very wacked T/E, free T, progest, etc.. Have you tried the Trib, Avena, Maca, Mira Puama stack?

Life extension is one but I have not tried it. If you are taking clen or ECA that may be making you feel like shit too.. Curious as I want to avoid this too. l8ta. TW

I don't know alot about the stuff you were taking. But I do know alot about depression here are a couple of simple things you can get first there is a dietary supplement called Focus Factor this will help you with motivation and mood and if orderd right you can get your first bottle for like $5 then look for another supplement called SAMe it will help you with your depression it runs like $25 a bottle these together should help you for not much money try them for a month or so if they are not helping you will need to see a doctor cause it can destroy your life trust me I have been there

Thanks for your help and suggestions..I'm taking Macapure and some other "male performance" increasers which are boosting my libido thru the roof. The problem is my emotions....Is this something that will go away naturally and my body will overcome this? I'm not all about seeing a doctor and spilling reasons why I break down crying about not having enough milk for my cereal in the morning (its not that bad). Thanks for your help! Oh..and I think I learned my lesson about messing with my body and emotions. If it works well for others....good luck!

Yes it should go away in time! I am usually a head case for 3 months after my last shot. the body takes a long time to get back to normal. think about it you are pumping hormones into your body for months on end, when you come off your body does everything it can to get your natural levels back but during that time it is confused so you go through tons of emotions until your body gets back on track! I usually just wait it out. This is one of the reasons I took a year off gear. after 3-4 months iwas back to normal and feeling good!
just my .2 worth!

Try to get Paxil or another mood elevator. You can be weaned off and of all drugs, Paxil is not addictive, you just have to decrease when you do go off it. KH

Take care of yourself. I am a gay man and want to be held when I get like this, or I want wild sex. Get your wife to pleasure you big time so enjoy it and make a positive out of a negative. I am there too and know exactly what you mean. You will be ok. If you have a situation you think you can't control, see a supportive doctor. The best to you man.

Carthaginian,
Any reason that you just blurt out that you are gay. Not trying to be a dick, just wondering what that has to do with the response???????

I apologize for being too comfortable with myself. But the guy was hurting and in instinctually, if not unwisely, said what I said in order to let him know that I truly had unconditional regard for his anxiety or pain. I hope he is better. I am sorry if I offended but not sorry for being open--I thought he might grab onto the idea if I startled him with openness. Sorry Max

wow..this thread kinda flipped topics...but back to the original..MAXM: thanks, all I really wanted to know is if I could wait it out or if I was stuck like this..thanks again..I think I can wait a couple of months for this to leave. Carthaginian: I have been using this to my advantage when it comes to my relationship with my wife..being more open with her and such..I'm hoping to create good habits from these next three months or so of this emotional trip that will stick with me throughout my life. Things that I have never felt...not saying that I'm turning into a pussy, but for once, I really do care.

I will openly say Carthaginian pmed me from here when he found out i was going to cali and gave me his name and # and said come visit him so he could get me off, hes here for the eye candy and using this as a dating site, mods if foward his pm can u ban his ass, this isnt the first gay banned for this, another started it with me on PM and was banned for doing it to others.

btw my girl is very "sensative, and emotional" so she loves when im clomid thinks I relate to her more I assume.

Daveb19,
Dude I thought this shit sounded weird. Same thing happened over at Pm the otherday. My thoughts exactly on the the whole dating site thing! STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM HERE! if you are her for a legit reason fine, if not LEAVE!

This is a little disturbing. Listen, for what it is worth I think most guys on this board are secure enough in their sexuality to accept a gay man that is here to learn about chemical muscle enhancement. I for one actually have dear friends that are gay men but they would never think of hitting on me (at least they would never ruin our friendship by tellin' me). I think that if what Daveb said is really true... then Carthaginian please leave (or the Mods will ban you either way) as that is completely out of line. This is a learning community not a dating service. I don't think many here have a problem with you being gay and staying here if you are merely interested in bodybuilding and simply share the same passion as the rest of us. On another note... your openness and self comfort is commendable in todays homophobic world but common sense would dictate keeping your sexuality to yourself unless asked or challenged.

This is by no means a personal attack but my attempt at a rational response to posts in this thread as I care very much about this board and this online community.

I guess my point is WHY come on a forum and tell everyone 100 times you are gay? To me it sounds like an advertisement, I dont see where that has anything to do with bb or anything we have to talk about for that matter! If you are gay fine but why put up a huge flag about it every time you post! not starting shit here just dont see the point!

dotcom · #18 (**permalink**) 08-15-2003, 02:12 PM

ok..lets get off the gay matter..altho annoying, those who flaunt this strange attraction to guys should be locked up. Those who keep quiet and respectful about their...hobbies or whatnot are fine by me. anyways...thanks for your help. Another week has passed and I'm still wigging out about the small things.."head case" as I read earlier in the thread clearly explains how I feel. Just have to wait it out and keep my mouth shut about the way I feel I guess.

MAXM · #19 (**permalink**) 08-15-2003, 05:04 PM

DUDE it will pass! just take it a day at a time right now!
