I know roid rage is a myth but i have a question.

**dehollister** · 03-09-2011, 10:25 PM

I'm on my 4th week of my h-drol cycle, it's my 2nd cycle ever. 75/75/75/75/100/100

I'm not gonna get into it as it's sort of a personal thing, but someone has done something to really aggravate me. Now normally, I can easily keep my cool, even on my last cycle i never lost it once. However this time I was "raging". This thing REALLY got to me. I'm losing it, I have a feeling in my gut the feeling you get right when your about to get in a fight with someone, or when your about to jump off a high object into water, the anxiety/pent up light feeling. I feel like I should go up and teach this persona a lesson, or at least go and yell at them for a while. It's been around 2 hours and i still havent calmed down and i still have major adrenaline running through my body.

Heres some other details.

Diagnosed with ADD/ADHD and am taking Adderall 20mgXR and Dexedrine 10mg
Past history of drug abuse but clean now(MDMA aka Ecstasy- may have caused emotional problems?)

Any idea why I feel like this? Could it be the h-drol, or something else?

While Roid Rage is way overblown in the press, taking any form of AAS or anything else that affects hormones can have an effect on ones behaviour. Certainly if you have a borderline personality disorder then anything that changes your hormonal balance can have bad effects that are not seen in most. That said in your particular case give it a good nights sleep and you should find that the problem has subsided, or in the meantime do a long workout to shorten the amount of time you will feel the way you do. Anytime you get really jacked up like that for whatever reason it take the better part of a day to restore you normal emotional balance.

Also as a side note, I suspect you are probably too young to be usiing steroids or H-drol and even if age is not a factor since you have a dual diagnosis this is still a problem. Do youself a favor and drop this stuff from your routine and get back to eating and lifting.

It isnt a myth..

But the emotional sides i find ar emore e2 related then actual Test.

**dehollister** · 03-09-2011, 11:00 PM

Dual diagnosis as in having ADHD and history of drug abuse?

How is this a "problem" now ,as I'm totally clean?

**27300man** · 03-09-2011, 11:02 PM

I would channel that aggression to a punching bag or lifting weight, thats what I do

**bobshoe** · 03-10-2011, 12:18 AM

Just to reassure you it's not a myth. Happened to me also once.

If one already has anger issues, AAS will magnify said issues.

"Roid Rage " might be a myth, but increased aggression from Anabolic -Androgenic Steroids is not.

**BJJ** · 03-10-2011, 07:23 AM

Testosterone , Nandrolone and related steroids cannot, repeat CANNOT alter one brain's synapse in any way simply because hormones do not work that way.

What we may experience it is an increased level of aggression given by the raise of androgens mostly.

indeed

**5x10** · 03-10-2011, 12:09 PM

good thing your aware of it, thats the key imo

i do remember on tren , getting pissed about something and just focusing on it, not letting it go, etc

just understand that although what they did may have been wrong, your going to have to deal with it like an adult
confront them when youve cooled of(perfect timing for me would be post leg day when i feel exhausted)

Interesting that you said you're taking ADHD stimulants... It may be those causing it. For me I become a horribly irritable and aggressive person from just stimulants alone. Adderall, ephedrine, caffeine, 1,3-Dimethylamylamine, and just about any stimulant makes me more irritable and more aggressive than any steroid has ever made me besides tren , tren was just a notch above what stimulants do to me.

**jimmyinkedup** · 03-10-2011, 12:36 PM

Both meds you are taking are known to cause increased aggression , anxienty and hoslilty. Hdrol is not very androgenic at all...so its less likely to cause increased aggression. Id look to the meds first ..

**dehollister** · 03-10-2011, 11:30 PM

Allright, thanks for the input guys.

I'm going to drop the ADHD meds for the rest of the cycle, they are causing me some BP issues as well, nothing major, just uncomfortable when I can feel my heartbeat.

Also, today was a good day! No temper issues, as well as the overall sense of well being that comes with h-drol.
