PCT's got me in a deep hole (not the good kind)

[jwcool000]

Hey guys,
Y'all have helped me before and I really appreciate it. I am reaching out to you from a bad place, unfortunately.

6'3"
250#
16% BF (a little chunky, I know)
Pristine Diet
5 days lifting, 2 days cardio

First cycle, I ran 12 weeks 500mg/wk Test Cyp with Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and an Aromatase inhibitor (AI). Kicked up the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) for two-weeks between last pin and post cycle therapy (pct).

Started PCT feeling fine and now I'm 3 weeks in and I'm a total disaster. Lack of enthusiasm, no confidence, terrible sleep, depressed, and most of all, anxiety like a motherfucker. My initial PCT was Clomid 50/50/25/25 and Nolva 20/20/10/10/10 alongside arimidex .5mg EOD. The Clomid wrecked me, so I tapered down after 2 weeks and increased the Nolva to 20 mgs for remaining 3 weeks. I feel a little better after stopping the clomid, but I'm still depressed and anxious and have ED pretty bad.

Side note: I'm on welbutrin for minor depression normally, been on for years.

Bros- I need you now more than ever, please come through. I am willing to try most anything at this point.

Heard the expression "going through hell"... if you stop taking steps forward you will be in hell. Only way to get past it, is to carry on taking steps forward.

No matter what, even a full successfill pct restoring natty level s..will not mimic 500 mg of test and the resultant sense of well being and invincibilty that go with it.

That s where ADDICTION starts. I KNOW this...it almost cost me my life although it was other meds that did it.

You ll be fine.Stay busy. Eating, resting and training sensibly are a must.

Lethargy only feeds depression.

Only by accomplishing anything will you get a handle on this..DO NOT fkn gear back up or turn to other compounds...

Have faith.

Gods timing is perfect...wait.

But he also helps those who helps himself.

Go do anything.

Completely. True.

TRYing is dying..you ll be fine..focus on keeping busy..take a walk..do not sit still as the bad vibes will break over you like your a rock..and drown you.
Instead ride the tide man..life goes up and down and we who augment ourselves with anything...have a wilder ride...

Relax..but do anything but dwell.

Success!

Thanks for all of your help, guys! I did just as you recommended and stayed strong through the trough, kept busy, and avoided the lethargy. I feel 10x better now and am back to pounding it hard in the gym and the bedroom. post cycle therapy (pct) is a motherfucker, but thankfully it's not much longer than a month or so. Gold stars for all of you.

Some advice: try Toremifene next time instead of clomid. You won't get all the shitty sides. Start your Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) 5 days after last pin and run it for another 15 days. Then start Torem at 120,90,60,30. You can add nolva if you want.

Use igf lr3 the entire post cycle therapy (pct). Mod GRF and ipamorelin aslo.

LR3 for sure... the other peps are not nearly as anabolic. MGF should be in there before Ipam/GRF

Glad to hear that you pulled through.

Teutonic's words were moving.OP Thanks for updating us on your well-being. I am in week 6 of my cycle, and was starting to freak out while reading your initial post. If I may say so, Weed does wonders for my well-being when I'm down, so I think I'll stay solid on the green during PCT.

 

[tod36]

Glad to hear everything turned out fine!

Hang in there man. It just hits harder for some. Continue working through it and force yourself through your workouts. It usually lasts a few weeks for me. And then starts getting better.....
