    Problem--Steroids + Antidepressants

    I am a 45 year old man who has been on paxil and epival for 13 years for bipolar. It has been a godsend for me with no problems really in that time. Well For the last 12 weeks I decided to do a cycle of testosterone cypionate . I have been off of it for 10 days now and am in absolute suicidal depression and a complete mess. I also have a gastric ulcer. 2 doctors have told me the steroids need to metabolise through my system and then all will return to normal. Thats all I want is to feel normal again---does this sound reasonable that it just has to work its way out of the system? I feel like a menopausing 50 year old woman

    You need to look into running a PCT

    There have been a few people here who once they got on HRT/TRT they got off all the antidepressants.

    Your doctors are clueless. This has nothing to do with the test needing to clear your system.
    You fell like crap because you now have low testosterone levels .
    As lovbyts pointed out, you need to run a PCT.

    That's not enough.
    Try:
    Clomid: 50/50/50/50/50
    Nolva: 40/20/20/20/20/20
