Unanswered can i use sarms if i am a ocd sufer ? under ssri medication ?

Yes, IF it lowers your natural Testosterone levels which most SARMS will do. My T level crashed on Ostrine, so be careful.
 
I've never run a sarm while on it but plenty of aas I'm also on trt with wellbutrin xanax etc hope that helps
 
I have OCD and take SSRIs. I have run Sarms (S23, Rad 140, Ostarine, and LGD) and did not notice an increase in anxiety or OCD symptoms. When I ran the steroid DMZ my anxiety was increased, but not to the point that I wouldn’t run it again. This is not medical advice and everyone can have different reactions. Always best to check with a dr.
 
You are on TRT, stable hormones ,completely different, op is going to be on the roller coaster ride of hormonal imbalance if he uses SARMS without TRT and he is already struggling a bit
 
People dealing with the mental/emotional effects of using anabolics and PCTing are one of the most common topics brought up on the board.

Good point, I could tell you realized the difference, and the nuance, thats why I didn't quote you. Really, just wanted to make sure that opp had specific explanation of why trt base was important, because I am not going to assume he knows 1 thing other than DJ recommended the triple stack.

i am 40 years old and if somethink natural helps to have any progress i will do that way ... about sarms ...is a good question if i showld do ... if is any of the side efects i so here ... no is the answer thank you
 
Yes. You can. And you can run steroids on Ssri’s and most other anti depressants/ocd/anxiety drugs.
The reason I say this carelessly, is you will NOT continue the steroids or sarms if the mental effects get too unpleasant. Humans have enough self preservation mechanisms that they won’t just continue taking something that’s making them miserable. I’ve had to stop steroids a dozen times, stuff comes up and it’s not worth continuing until I get some issues worked out.

Steroids don’t make people violent or homicidal either.
They make violent or homicidal people violent or homicidal.
 
I just started a low dose SSRI BECAUSE of steroids. Just having too much OCD, Insomnia and anxiety lately and not worth it.

What I’m saying, is it’s highly probable you were going to experience those problems and hospitalizations if you had used steroids or not. Maybe it wouldn’t have been as severe, but I believe steroids only exaggerated the already present issue.

So this is much more common than i thought.

Test itself at 500mg per week increased my anxiety and gave me sporadic panic attacks. Masteron gave me horrible anxiety, panic attacks where i felt i was going to die, made me twitch in the middle of the night as if i was being zapped by 220 volts, made me paranoid thinking that all women on public transport wanted to kill me and at times i felt as if i would go mad and lose it, nearly felt like i wanted to jump out of my skin.

I suffer no previous mental issues.

This is clearly something i overlooked before starting aas. I thought only tren was able to cause this.

However, test @ 250mg/week and test @ 500mg/week for the first few weeks makes me feel like a god.

You know what man, i dont think going on ssri's is worth it those extra pounds. I would be worried about withdrawals big time. I came really close to taking them on multiple occassions, but i managed to resist the urge. I also had big plans steroids wise, but I dont want to trade my mental health for some extra muscle.

I feel the obligation to function like a normal human being towards my family, my friends, my coworkers...
It is easy to lose the sight of the big picture while you are on a lot of stuff. Suddenlly quitting your job or leaving your family doesnt seem so scary anymore. I am usually a pretty cheerfull person but now I am completely cold, weighed down by this damn anxiety.



And now I am worried that i have awakened the beast (anxiety) which will not go away.

You’ll be ok. There’s loads of stuff that helps. Obviously alcohol is hands down the worst thing for it. It’ll help for a few hours but you’ll be in a far worse position after that.
I live drinking a Kava tea every night. The ssri and a little dose of trazadone helps me sleep. I avoid caffeine after 4pm. DHTs are brutal for some of us. I avoid them most often. 19nors and I feel great and gain a lot of quality muscle. Tren I have about 3 weeks experience with and never again unless I was doing a competition and I’d have a month or two of Valium lined up if so. It’s just an increase in unpleasant anxiety but I’ve always had some of it anyways. Finding what works will allow you to continue using aas. Just requires a little extra preparation.

I will not quit aas. Not at this stage I am at right now. However, I will stick to test and will not do high dosages I intended on doing.
500mg of legit test per week is plenty.

Anyway, i call BS on Masteron being referred to as "mild" side effect wise.

Kava tea is good for Ocd ?
 
Matthersby said:
Naw just insomnia and anxiety. Irritability too. But ocd is treated very well with SSRI and tranquilizers. I hate ocd. Mine is totally uncontrollable and is usually about death, space, and time.

I don’t touch Sarms. Just steroids.
Most steroids increase anxiety, irritability, and ocd. Some more than others.

S4 intrigues me but ya, sarms are so pointless.
If they did what they were meant initially to do, minimize suppression and maintain healthy labs, I’d be all for them.

I’m on a pediatric dose of escitalopram. Seems to help massively with insomnia as I’m tired as **** by 9pm now. I can run any 19nors, Trest nandrolones and then stuff like Dbol. Lately dht’s wreck me though. Pulled the plug on Msten last week and I’m just going to stack my NPP with low dose Dbol for 5 weeks. I’m betting DHB(which I just bought 60ml’s of) will treat me ok. But until I get things figured out, not a lot else is agreeing with me.

I'm at least a month into my DHB + Anavar cycle and have noticed essentially no side effects aside from the typical ones related to suppression. When I ran a TBol cycle back in the fall, I noticed some mild anxiety at around 100 mg/day. However, the worst thing I've ever taken was RAD-140 -- I became negative, depressed, moody, had a pessimistic outlook, was borderline suicidal... and the results were only meh. @costelum, if you do decide to try SARMs (although I don't think any of them are worth it IMO), I would stay away from RAD-140 if you are prone to anxiety, depression, or other mental conditions.
