Depression Prevention

[DHew]

Last PCT I ran was pretty tough. I had anxiety and with that some depression but im not sure if most of it was because my girlfriend and I broke up, or the test suppression, or possibly both. Im hoping the next pct is better, because the last one sucked. This is the cycle im thinking of running...

Test prop 100mg ED 6weeks
Anavar 50mg ED 6weeks

Im trying a shorter cycle in hopes that if it really was gear related hopefully a shorter cycle wont shut me down as hard. I ran test enth @ 500mg/week for 10 weeks last cycle. Would the short cycle mentioned above make for an easier PCT maybe? Also, anyone here know or use some sort of depression prevention, or do you just deal with it til its gone?

Step one to prevention is awareness. If you are predisposed to depression and it worsens after a cycle and you know this..... Make sure you have a plan in mind. Shorter cycle, better pct are options.

I use my mind to help control my aggression when doing tren, I love the benefits, but I have got a little out of hand in the past. Now I know unless I control my aggression during cycle I can never use Tren again. Good Luck!

Try a clomid free pct.

This is based on Hooker's pct -- a sticky in the pct forum.

Weeks
1 - 6: Nolva 20mg ED
1 - 5: Aromasin 20-25mgs ED
1 - 3: HCG 500iu ED
1 - 3: Vitamin E 1000iu ED

I am also going to run proviron at 50mg ed for 5 weeks.

ya i have never used clomid before, and dont think I will just because of the bad sides people tend to get with its use.

Paxil et. al. will help with this stuff....

Try 5-hpt, start a week before pct and the run it in your pct. I did 400 mg ed my last pct and for the first time ever I didn't feel down or got a "light" depression. I actually felt really good during pct mentaly. But my apetite sucked and I got constipated due to the 5-htp. But I can deal with that, beats feeling like shit.

[DHew]

Anything beats feeling like shit. Whats 5-hpt and where can i get this?

Not to be an ass, but if you are this worried about depression during PCT, then maybe aas is not for you. I'd see a doc, and get your depression under control first.

If you have serious long term depression problems see your doctor and maybe try antidepressants. They work real well but do have some unfortunate side effects. If its a short term problem related to your cycles you might try cabaser for deprression and xanax for anxiety.

Ive never been depressed until PCT came along, and about 25 days after the test ran out of my system i felt fine. I dont think I have a problem with depression, maybe just during PCT?

If you don't have a history of depression, then I'm sure it was just an isolated event due to your break-up.

try some ephedrine hcl (VASOPRO). Helping me a lot during my pct 3rd week.
25mg /50mg 8am. 25mg / 50 mg 1 pm. Enhances norepinephrine. TRY IT!!! Anti depressants take 2 weeks to become effective. Ephedrine hcl kicks in in 20 minutes. Sharpens focus . Give a good sense of concentration.
