Do you get insomnia on T shots?.........

[Alpin]

As you guys know been off for a while from TRT. Started my Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) last week 2x week 400 i.u. and continuing...
Have too much energy and find it difficult to sleep at a stable bed time. Since doing the T shot (160 mg) last week....
feel more energy and a couple nights this week didn't feel sleepy till 7 Am...it's the second time this week.
My sleeping patterns have been messed for a while. Usually fall asleep at 2:30 AM-3:30 AM (off TRT)
Maybe the dose is much and my body is really receptive to it since I was off for so long?
I def. feel increased libido this week.
what do you guys think?

Between my job and my time in the gym I am pretty spent by bed time so I have no issues falling asleep.

I worked out too last night...felt energy after though...lol
what dose you on?
I did sleep in till 11:30 AM though...
I think it's just my schedule that's messed.
I never had this last time I was on T shots...wasn't running Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) then...
so not sure if the combination of the 2 are too stimulating for me now that I am running both.

Nope, no insomnia here, my only sleep issue is apnea which makes staying asleep difficult.
100mg/wk.

HRT definitely affects sleep. I started Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) with Androgel at beginning of last month (Sep 2013). Beforehand, I was sleeping in excess of 20-hours per day (not really sleeping...just laying around). I'm now only sleeping about 4-hours per day. Dr. switched me to weekly injection of cypionate at 200 mg per week starting this last weekend (October 5, 2013). I'm hoping I get adjusted to the rX and my sleep schedule is based on at least 8-hours per night. If not, I'll go back to taking halcion as sleep aid. It is the only thing that works for me.

That's what I thought....
T shots energize you...I couldn't close my eyes. And I have a CPAP machine too...
I think they are best taken very early A.M.
I won't ever take a T shot in the evening or late afternoon.
Some people might be able to handle it tough.

I am on 160mg a week of Test C, I as well have apnea so I am always tired because I can not get a good nights sleep. I will have my cpap by the end of next week so once I get that area of my life fixed I should be good to go.

I've never tried Halcion. How does it stack up against the likes of Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan etc.?

T shots make sleep apnea worse bro...
Get that CPAP fast!
I had sleep apnea and taking T and still felt sluggish.

Huh... Once I got on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) I started sleeping like a baby. I could finally sleep the whole night through.

OP: I suspect your insomnia is anxiety induced given your recent decision to adjust your paxil dosages. The simple explanation is often the correct one.

Given the half life of almost a week for test c, you probably would see only a marginal difference from injecting in the morning.
