Test issues/confused

[Brain5ick]

So, story time! I wanna talk about my first shot of test because I have questions and concerns.
I was gonna start a cycle awhile back of Test E, 480mg per week. Things didn’t go as planned though.
I’ve never ran test before this so I didn’t know what to expect and I’ll admit this story is a bit embarrassing for me. My test on average is around 300ng/dL so it’s already low, just a background about me.
So! I pinned 240mg of Test E awhile back hoping it’d make me feel better since my test was rather low to start with. Felt fine afterwards but got kinda anxious as the night went on. No big deal though. Went to bed and when I woke up I was a sobbing mess, depressed as all hell, anxiety through the roof, having panic attacks, and the entire time I had literally no idea why! I felt tired as hell too! It’d been less than 24 hours since I pinned and I couldn’t figure any of this out! I thought maybe estrogen was peaking but this is Test E, long Esther. No way my E could be spiking already right? I didn’t feel right for days, felt like absolute trash and couldn’t figure it out. Also felt slightly euphoric and disassociated which was reaaaaal weird. It took over a week to feel like I got most of my sanity back but I’m mostly back to myself now. I’m just so confused as to what this may have been! A few buddies of mine say everything I describe about it sounds nothing like test and they have no clue what I got. They don’t even want to touch the stuff. It was so crazy to me, I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m about to have to go on TRT from my doctor but that last experience freaked me out. Can anyone out there shed some light on this for me?
Thanks to everyone who replies.

Maybe just test flu, but we need more info. How did you obtain your gear, no sources, but you know, online, some guy from the gym, craigslist, mexican pharmacy?. Is it labeled? What is the concentration? What color is the oil? How did you Pin? Where? People react to test with flu like symptoms commonly, basically your body having a heightened immune response. I get sort of a flu from new compounds on occasion. It probably is not heightened e, but could be. Maybe you are estrogen dominate and already on the hi end with a strong propensity toward estrogen converison, and he 240mg of test added on top pushed your normaly high e above a comfortable level fast. I would use Aromasin at 480 a week test.

Buddy of mine gave it to me from one of his orders. It’s Gym Labs Test E, pinned in the glute after warming. No pip or pain during injections. 300mg/ml. My test being so low maybe my E is a little high but idk.

That was my thought. Men get low T ususally becasue they have high E. So if your E is high already...Though that is quick to be experiencing symptoms, not really considering that the Test E peaks at 8-24 hours. I personally think that a 2X week injection schedule is too spread out for Enth, I am a fan of eod.

But people get sick from test all the time, Test flu. I have felt like **** for days from it, but I always feel better after some time on.

I mean it’s not as fast acting and prop, but I haven’t gotten my estrogen checked because my doctors refuse to test it for some reason. It was just so fast though, I felt something hit me within an hour of injection and I’m not a placebo guy. I couldn’t focus on anything at all. It was so weird and I still can’t shake the feeling that I may not have gotten what I was supposed to get. I also didn’t experience any physical suppression oddly. I’m not sure how quickly you may see shrinkage on test but I usually see it quickly on some sarms.

How are you feeling mentally before taking steroids? Do you have low confidence? Depression? You're anonymous so spill it out. everyone reacts differently to gear but it could be something as simple as you feeling anxious about not getting the results you want, you could be feeling bad about injecting a compound in to your body.. People get anxiety from anything but they don't always know what causes it so take a look at yourself and think if there's anything else that worries you.

I’ve had depression on and off my whole life, a little bit of anxiety here and there. I was excited and happy about this though. Maybe it was just me. Not sure.

Yeah so I think you have an anxiety because you're not sure this will make you happy. Listen gear will make it easier to build muscles and I bet you'll be happier with the look afterwards but then you have this little anxiety in the background they you will have to face. This might improve a part of your life but most likely it won't change you and I'm saying this because it's important to know that it's not the juice, it's something else that's the problem. Try to enjoy life and do the best you can for now then after the cycle you come back and tell us how you feel alright? Feel free to pm if you need some feedback for whatever reason. Depression sucks but trust me you can snap out of it.

Thanks man! Much appreciated!

 

[Brain5ick]

So I talked to some buddies of mine that were blown away that I started my cycle at almost 300mg my first shot. They said I should’ve started at a much lower dose like 75mg and worked up to that over time. Anyone wanna chime in?

I want to add:
Hormones may work both ways.
I had panic attacks in the past, test almost entirely cured it. Since I'm on TRT/cruising , I get only sporadically brief episodes of anxiety, before that, it was a daily struggle, incapacitating me. My problem was low test.

My doctors are talking about putting me on TRT even though I’m young so now I’m anxious to go on since I had this bad experience.

I would try anyway, if it works, like it did for me, your life will change for the better. My guess is, your reaction to your first pinning was entirely psychological -not making fun of it, as I know how debilitating anxiety can be. It was the typical "expectation feeds anxiety loop", if you know what I mean. After pinning you expected a reaction ---> causing anxiety.

I do believe my anxiety played a big roll. I gotta day though, I didn’t feel right for about a week. Weirdest feeling I’ve ever had.

Because you knew the test is inside you and you "listened" for changes to your body = feeding your expectations = anxiety loop.

If I were you, I would try proviron too. Test converts in parts to DHT, DHT can cause -or cure anxiety, often dose dependent. If low test is your problem, DHT would shad a light on it.
Goggle a bit about Proviron and anxiety.

Is it something I could talk to me doc about or do I need to source it? I’ve heard of it before.

Talk to the doc first. If he is stubborn, source it. Docs will hook you on benzos, the worst you could take. Same here, doc prescribed benzos and a ****load of beta blockers and whatnot. Did not take any of it and cured myself, using all info from the net.

Haha my doc did the same to me. Problem is my age though, a lot of docs are hesitant to help me out though they admit I’m a candidate.

 

[hairygrandpa]

Your age is indeed a problem.
I managed my symptoms first with phenibut twice a week. This way I had 2 days per week without episodes. After a while fiddling with bacopa, phosphatidylserine and noopept, I finally jumped to testosterone.
If you go on TRT, use HCG regularly. One day, when you wish to have kids, it could be beneficial.

Already have one! Lol but I do plan on having more so I’m definitely going on HCG. I’m not gonna lie I have no idea what a lot of those compounds are. Gonna have to run to google.

Yes, google! Even after years of reading, I still learn almost every week something new.
