Odd reaction to H-Drol

Well im one week into H-Drol at 50mg a day and everything was going fine. Havent really felt anything yet but i know it doesnt kick in for another week.

Then last night i just starting getting really nervous (anxious) and didnt really sleep much. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this and has any advice? I dont want to be a big pussy and abort this, im up 2 lbs in the first week :thumbsup:, but i also dont want to go 4 more weeks feeling like this every night and being useless the next day.

ive been dosing 25mg @ 9am and 25mg @ 4pm on an empty stomach. Supports supps are just CS, ala, sesamin, multi, liv-52 and hawthorne. Havent changed anything diet wise other then adding another 250 calories to be slightly over maintenance. I was planning on going to 75mg next week but if i decide to continue i think i'll stick with 50mg for now.

Any advice appreciated.
 
I just finished a cycle that included H-drol, and at times sleeping was difficult. Try using some ZMA and melatonin before bed it will help you get good deep sleep and also will help with GH levels.

Maybe a lot is on your mind right now. Just try relaxing, I never had this occurrence with H-Drol. Correlation does not imply causation.

I would first try taking diphenhydramine (sleep aid - just 50mg benadryl) 1 hour before sleep. If for the next couple of days it does not improve, I would recommend discontinuing use. Is a couple pounds of muscle really worth the sides you are stating?

Its certainly possible its just in my head, thats why i was wondering if anyone else experienced this side-effect. I know these things effect everyone differently. Its just sort of a little nervous feeling throughout the day and then when sleeping it just got a bit worse, probably cause im just laying there thinking about it instead of Heather Graham :). For 2 lbs no its not worth it, for 10 lbs though i could learn to live with it :)

Ill give it a few more days and see where Im at. Maybe play with the dosages, taking it all at once earlier in the day, etc? The ZMA is a good idea too. Thanks for the responses.

For what it's worth, i've been up to 100mg/day (planning on 125/150mg for next cycle) with h-drol. You could just have a racing mind, i've found that after reading about it and talking with people, having a racing mind is extremely more common than I thought (thinking about all sorts of things -stressful or not- keeping people up). I've had that problem before, during, and after cycle. I notice that it's less prominent after a hard days work, when your mind just wants to go to sleep!

Yea that definitely could be me :)

How did you dose it when you were doing 100mgs? With food or without? I was wondering if its better to take 50mgs all at once or split it. I imagine at 75 or above It should probably be split up.
 
I had the same problem so i took the first 50 in the morning and the next dose 6hrs later. made sure at least 8 hrs before bed. i always use melitonin on cycle too.
 
I experienced lots of anxiety with my PH cycle. I cycled Pheradrol. I didn't find much of a cure for it.. it definitely made my cycle a little rough.

25mg at 7am
25mg at 11am
25mg at 3pm
25mg at 7pm

I ate it with food if it was close enough to chow time. I took it that early because that's when I woke up for 8am classes the whole week.
 
I dosed the m-drol with it when on my 4th week @ 40mg:

10mg 7am
20mg 2pm
10mg 9pm

No problems with either. Terrible lower back pumps only one time on cycle while working out.
 
I remember being about 1 week into it and feeling very anxious while I was trying to fall asleep. It occured during that moment where I was not quite asleep and not quite awake. It was a very bizarre feeling. Thankfully it only happened twice. The cycle was great otherwise.

Anxiety is a very common adverse effect of steroid use. Try taking the full dose in the am. H-drol has a pretty long half life, and taking just 1 50mg dose shouldn't effect your gains. If you bump up to a higher dose, take the larger dose in the morning.

Thanks, was thinking i would try that. I didnt realize this was a common side effect. Does it usually subside once your body gets used to it or should i expect this to last the length of the cycle?
 
One week in myself today and can't say any sleep issues. To be honest, I feel like I need less sleep while one this!

3 weeks into my 1st Hdrol cycle. currently @ 50mgs. and 3 caps of ZMA and 6mgs. of melatonin, and i sleep like a baby. but yes, about 3 days into the cycle i couldn't sleep either. didn't know if it was the Hdrol, or the fact that my GF of 1 year and i split up. sounds like it could be a bit of both.
 
I got anxiety when taking H-Drol. I would fall asleep then wake up breathless, gasping for air. At times during the day I could feel my heart race. I don't take any stim supps other than coffee in the morning and coffee doesn't do that to me.
