First test blast....ugghh

Was really excited to do my first ever test blast. Stockpiled enough cyp from my trt and have enough to run at 300mg/wk for ~9 weeks. Basically doubling my trt dose. Thought that would be a nice feel good run, but damn if the anxiety didn’t jump on me right outta the gate. It got to me the night of my second dose. Woke up at like 4am with a borderline panic attack. Wasn’t expecting that at all. Since then been pretty edgy through the last couple days and I’m due another pin tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll adjust and this won’t be a problem. Otherwise I might have to just back off. Anyone else have bad anxiety on modest doses of test cyp? Sucks I responded to test this way 🤬

A Lot of guys don't realize that some guys have almost no detectable effects (by way of feel) to being on a Test cycle.
... And some guys have a bad reaction to it (after all, it isn't Natural to have that much Test in our system).

Of the guys who have a bad reaction, some will probably always react that way.

Others need time to adjust.

... And the rest need adjustment in other hormonal ways (Estrogen, etc... ).

I don't suppose you could check your hormone levels, including Estrogen?


By the way... I relate most closely with the group who doesn't usually notice much of a difference (as far as feel goes) from higher Test only

Yes it happens. NPP and certain other injectable made my anxiety worse. Every time I took it i had anxiety every single night the whole cycle. I decided I didn’t care and pushed through it. This is your decision to make.
 
damn, you would think that by now i would know that people react to things differently and that just because i feel like the most alpha male in the room when my test is high, that not everyone is going to feel this way.

@hyperCat maybe just ease into the higher dose, adding a little more each injection?

This is what I was going to suggest. I have to ramp up slowly most of ped's that I've used and certain types of supps. Even Tamox, if I jump to 20 mg the first day it's bad time. Have to do 5 mg -> 10 mg -> 15 mg -> 20 mg, then I'm ok and can stay there.

yeah probably the best approach.

just to highlight the variety in individual response I get virtually nothing (in terms of unexpected sides) from any compound and I just jump in at the dose
I’m running 🤷

this is why we can read all the info and hear others experiences but until we try something ourselves we really have no idea what will happen
 
Welcome to the club. I dont like higher test.

Looking like a muffin and gains suck tbh. Also increased bp.

I also had panic attacks although at 500mg. Your nervous system is overstimulated by influx of androgens.

You may or may not adjust.

Personally have way better gains on higher test and the other compounds lower (exemple 750 test 400 deca 400 primo) then the opposite which I know is the trend... lower test and higher other compounds! I understand it’s not necessarily a smooth run for everyone tho!
 
I've decided to hold off on this run for a while. Got a lot of work projects going on, so not a good time to be dealing with the extra anxiety. God I wish I could retire early! Anyway, I think I'll try to ramp up slowly when I do give it another go. Maybe easing into it is the ticket for me.
 
MK-677 caused unbearable anxiety for me. I tried to push through and it just got worse. Stopped for a few months and took a single dose to start a cycle. Anxiety off the charts the next day.

You might be able to adjust to the anxiety, but it probably won't go away and may get worse. It also may hyper sensitize you to the test and ruin your TRT abilities in the future. Personally, I'd stop immediately and return to cruise levels after a week.

I had this same happen with ugl Rad. Couldn't even handle 1/4 of a tab yielding 2,5 mg of Rad. Had to give all of it away. But for many compounds the backing off and then tapering up has worked. Interesting view on the hyper sensitizing. That would be horrible for someone on trt for sure.

have you ever heard of anyone not being able to do trt because of hyper sensitivity?

all i could find was about women.

No, but I assume that since it is fairly common with blast doses, it must be possible with cruise doses as well. Also, his blast dose is fairly low and not much higher than what many of us cruise at. He may someday require something closer to that dose for TRT.

Purely theoretical, but why push your luck? Is it worth some temporary gains to play roulette on the revolver?

calm down, didn't say it wasn't possible just asked if you ever heard of anyone not being able to trt...actually i didn't even know this was common in blast cycles, honestly this is the 1st i've heard of that.

Sorry, bud! I'm not upset at all. Didn't mean for it to come across that way. 😮
 
Anxiety is a funny symptom. If you feel it, it is definitely there, however the actual cause of it might not be the seemingly obvious reason.

I have a parent that I believe is an undiagnosed hypochondriac. I know that I have picked up some of those negative behaviors as a result. I read up on actual clinical hypochondriacs and the issue is that the person is overly sensitive to any and all health related stimulus, threat of illness, etc and believes that they experience extreme symptoms. Like if they sneeze a few times, they convince themselves it’s a deadly illness and start living as if the worst case scenario has been confirmed.

I know I’ve done this myself to lesser degrees with running gear, but I’m getting better about it. I’ve gotten paranoid by trying new products, thinking my BP was out of control or that gyno was starting. It was/is a healthy fear, but I need to manage it based on actual evidence and blood tests, not my emotional brain.

So long story short, OP might be directly getting anxiety from the higher test dose OR he spiked his own anxiety just by knowing that he upped the dose.
