Depressed after cycle.

[jwoody]

I have been off now for almost 4 weeks. I was on a cycle of test e, 500mgs a week, for 10 weeks. Pct has been 100mgs clomid, 40mgs nolva for the first 2 weeks, and then clomid 50mgs for the next two weeks, with 20mgs of nolva. I started pct 2 weeks after last shot.

After giving you the info, I have to say that even though you see the posts by Bouncer or some of the other guys talking about how gear can affect you psychologically,I guess I didn't realize the weight of this statement. I have become to apreciate the want or need to stay on long periods of time, and only staying off a short while. I will not be going back on for a while, but I would definitely love to be on right now. I just have no will power or drive. I also got diagnosed with acid reflux right after coming off, so it has been hard to keep food down, which hasn't helped the matter. I lost 10 pounds in the week after starting pct, which was mainly due to throwing up from the acid reflux. I have since gaind back 6 pounds of it. So it is coming back. There really isn't any point to this post, other than to vent, and share my situation to you guys. Seeings how you guys are the only people I know who can relate to the ups and downs of being on gear. Thanks for listening.

So as far as PCT goes, I should just continue the nolva at 40mgs a day for the rest of the second week. Then do the 20mgs a week for 2 weeks. The only reason I did the clomid was that I had read that both is better. I was actually using Rocket's plan.

Stay focused and back down your training.. Make sure you are getting in adequate food and rest... You will come back around... Did you use any HCG while on??

That is what I would do. clomid is basically estrogen and it works like it. You are in effect making it that time of the month for your self.

I know what your going threw bro. No matter what I did or what anyone said I couldnt get out of it. I just wasnt getting better after 5 months of being off I finally went to the doc and got some medication or as I call it, "my nut pills" lol.

yes thats the same plan i use and it always works for me. i dont get depressed but i do get a lil emotional(sp) ill tend to get watery eyed over something stupid on tv. that being said it might not even be the clomid. you could be depressed just cuzz you dont feel like superman anymore. remember you were sick also losing all that weight and strenght can have a funny effect on people. how many cycles have you done?

This is the first, and yes, you tend to feel like you are on top of the world, so that is a little hard to get use to. Also to pumpdogg, no I didn't use any HCG. Thanks for the support guys, I knew you would understand what I was talknig about.

[Bouncer]

What were they and did they work?

Cymbalta is what they put me on and yes it worked. Its a new kind of depression med. I was having bad paines in my upper back/trap area and it was all connected to depression and stress. Its amazing how powerful your mind is.

I never use clomid post-cycle, just nolva. Try some st. johns wort, it takes awhile to kick in but it helps big-time. I get real moody on tren....
