I personally don't see a problem then, as long as you stick to things like test and androgens and keep your E2 in check.

I would definitely advise against anything like Tren or Nandrolone, any progestin. You may also wish to stock up on some Xanax in case your mood swings up and/or anxiety raises. Although, I'm not a doctor and I have no idea how that will react with Lithium.

Yup I'm not looking to use anything yet but I know at some point I'll need to if I want to pass my body's natural cap. Also just wondered if anybody knew any bbuilders with it

Progestins tend to mess with the head more than androgens, especially Tren. Androgens tend to be much smoother, giving a sense of well being. Progestins can give quite the opposite effect.

Androgens however will increase dopamine and will amp up the CNS a degree in some people, so it's something to watch out for. I could see how it might be possible to cause manic episodes in bipolars if not careful.

Good info GP!

Do you know "WHY" that is though. You are correct, Tren made me a complete dick and a lunatic! Just never understood the actual reason why.

I have no idea why that is with progestins. I stay away though. Deca made me feel lousy. I tried it through my HRT clinic, and did not like it one bit.

Adrogens FTW.

Deca & Tren are both progestins. Depressed, no energy, even while on lots of test.

Some people use mast with it to combat the sides, but even still, I will never touch them.

I remember when I tried deca, I was on a lot of sust + had a lot of TD test I was using, so the test kicked in real quick. Felt amazing, was always go go go, lots of energy and felt great... then the nandrolone kicked in... sluggish, crazy night sweats, dripping sweat all over my girl at the time during play time, no energy, negative thoughts... got huge though, but not worth it.

1-Testosterone seems like a much better option in terms of a mass gainer with much fewer sides.

I was also taking caber in order to counteract prolactin sides. Didn't feel like caber did a thing to balance things out. It was prescription strength / pharma grade caber too.

They tend to bring me down whereas androgens hype me up. I guess both scenarios can result in someone being an ******* though. All about knowing what to expect and how to counteract it... which is fine, but I covet my sex life too much to play with 19-nor's. It's a sacrifice I'm not willing to make.

I would be very careful and only use one compound at a time. As a medical professional I can tell you that all medications for bi polar disorder can cause increased agitation, mood swings, and increased risk of suicidal ideation especially in the first three weeks of a new medication. If your planning to take something that can cause a hormonal shift. I would be extremely cautious especially when it come to being in a manic state. Just my two cents
