Serious Problem...Anxiety Attacks

[ReggyD]

I am 4 weeks into my first cycle, and it is a deca only at 400mg/week. (I know your not supposed to run it without test, but still...I dont think that would cause the problem that I have).
I got an anxiety attack for the first time in my life last night...it was one of the worst feelings I have ever had. and it happened again at work today in front of all my co-workers.
I know anxiety is hormone related, so do you think it is the steroids that are causing this?
If so...what do I do? Should I end the cycle all together, or add some Prop to it?

I honestly would add some test prop and at least an HRT dose to combat any unwanted side effects. This isnt the first time ive heard this with using deca tho as my buddy had the same problem and it stopped when he got off. IS there anything that is stressing you out currently in your life, possibly somethign that is worrying you?

I have lived with panic disorder for years now. My first panic attack happened in university before I took any juice. I know the feeling too well bro. I am not an expert when it comes to deca but running it on its own is probably not a good idea. Either try running some test with it, or just stop it all together. Also, go see a doctor and tell them your are getting panic attacks. If you want to be really honest tell them your taking steroids and let them do some blood work on you.

I was having some serious female problems...but it's nothing new, and ive never gotten an anxiety attack before.
When I got the second attack, I wasnt even thinking too much about my problems...it just popped up out of nowhere.

I'll add some prop, and see if it helps.

Thanks for the sympathy guys

This happened to me, due to deca (well, durabolin, but anyway) when I took more of it than test. I'd had anxiety problems before, so I was able to sit down and take a deep breath, or bottle it up until I could, it didn't scare me too much cause I knew what was happening. But man, did it suck, it felt like I'd never breathe again. I was barely able to hide the fact that I was having a hard time standing up straight and as soon as I was by myself, I fell over, almost fainted. This happened multiple times a day until I balanced the test with the nandrolone.

I had these in an EXTREME way several years back. I had a couple while NOT on juice, but then I took a massive load of DECA and had several MAJOR ones!! I rushed myself to the emergency room 3 different times. They did EKG's and such, then told me I was fine. This was before panic attacks were that common back in 95-96'. I didn't talk to anybody about it because they couldn't understand how i felt like i was going to die at 27 years old with a heart attack. I think the deca amplified the attack intensity because it hurt like hell. I totally felt all the pain down my left arm and in my chest, thought I wouldn't make it to the emergency room due to passing out and could hardly breathe. It also felt like somebody poured cold water down my back when it came on. So I feel for you man, they didn't stop after I discontinued the Deca though, I delt with those for about 2 years, just not as bad once i stopped the Deca. I'm sorry you're dealing with these. I know it sucked for me. Didn't know if I was going to live to see the next day for about 18 months. And nobody knew what was wrong with me, nobody else could relate.

Dude I used to get so serious panic attacks, even without the juice. Try talking to someone or something bc after a while of the same stess and shit you just get these attacks. I feel for ya good luck

Great thread, as you can see we all share simaler deals. i always feel great on cycle, but for the first time im running 550mg Deca a wk ! with 750 Test/ 50 ed dball, and i'm like a walking time bomb..i think it is the deca, because i havnt even experianced this when on 100mg Tren ED w/ test..so this will be my last deca run, and first !

I know how you feel bro. First off, no test, no cycle! I only get anxiety attacks from juicing...but I got 2 things prescribed by a doctor (xanax or clonazepam). Both will set your anxiety attakcs straight when you feel ur gonna have one. You need to see your doc and let him know what you're doing to your body. Get some blood tests done every month. I honestly am use to my anxiety attakcs. Are you having any problems not juice related? Family problems? Girlfriend? Wife? Any little thing that makes u mentally weak?

yeah this can a SERIOUS problem when u Juice. A lot of us get really emotional easily while on gear. Heck even an estro/test imbalance can make us get like 13 year old girls on pms lol. I say you need to be in your superior state of mind when u hit up the juice because adding hormones to your body mess with your mind bro...it can make u do things u've never done before - i'm speaking for myself.
