    So you had anxiety when your test was low and you are still having anxiety since administering testosterone ?

    How long have you had low testosterone ?

    How long have you suffered from anxiety?

    Any hormonal imbalance can cause anxiety/depression. Test, Estrogen, Thyroid. Lots of factors.

    you can post your BW here, just block out your personal info, we all do the same. what is you protocol? and have you donated blood since starting your TRT? and is this doctor prescribed with pharma grade medications or UGL?

    sorry,never had anxiety before...when my testosterone was low,I didnt have anxiety...I started on the injection and was doing fine,feeling good..I was getting my blood drawn like every 3 months..everything was fine.....now almost a year later..I started to have server anxiety attack and depression....Got my blood drawn and testosterone was high and estrogen is high 59..thyroid is low...So i was wondering if the hormones could cause this...if so which ones if not all....does anyone think 59 for my estrogen is a high level??I dont know how long my t was low...My chronic fatigue dr check and the levels was really low so he put me on the adro gel,it help for a few weeks..then my testo crash so he put me on the injection...yes my bp is high 140-90.....I dont know how to post stuff on this site....if i did i would post all my labs

    have you donated blood since you started TRT? sounds like your hemoglobin, hematocrit and RBC are elevated, in other words your blood is getting very thick. high BP is one of the symptoms. donating blood will take care of this, do it ASAP, you got nothing to lose.

    here is Tommy's BW, and there were my observations,

    you definitely need to donate blood ASAP, it will help with your BP and the way you feel. I also noticed you liver enzymes are up a little, not bad but they should be lower, are you taking any pain killers? your glucose is too high, you seriously need to do something about it, drop all starchy carbs and breads. and finally your thyroid is in bad shape, have you discussed this with your doctor? you need to fix that too.

    What are your TEST levels at 125mg per wk??
    Most docs will lower your dose if you com in
    too high of range.

    Treating low thyroid often raises testosterone numbers, so please, as you work with your physician to treat your thyroid, make sure s/he keeps an eye on your T levels, MCH, HCT and adjusts your dose if needed and/or asks you to donate blood.

    Is your doctor prescribing you testosterone ? Are they doing anything to treat your high estrogen?

    What is your TDEE? What types of foods do you eat throughout the day?

    Looks like you dropped some bodyfat. Looked at your bloods, Bass has you headed in the right direction.
    It is a real balancing act to get all your hormones in range and feeling good.
    Thyroid is your first concern. Test level and estrogen balance #2. Are you inject once or twice a week? 2 injections a week will help with estrogen conversion and DIM is not a very effective supplement in my opinion. Anastrozole is my personal choice and I actually prefer my estrogen at the higher side of normal, you may feel better somewhere else in the range.
    I take armor thyroid and felt like crap before being treated for it.

    I had my first episode of panic attacks and anxiety symptoms during pct of my first cycle. I blamed it on the withdrawals from aas. 3 years later I ran the same cycle and never had any more anxiety than usual. I guess it's easy to blame these types of things...

    I had my first panic attack ever a couple months after beginning TRT. I was underdosing my AI and was not taking it as often as is recommended, I strongly believe my lone panic attack was the result of elevated estrogen.
