Test and irritability

[Ashop]

Wanted some input here...test only cycle coming up, will do test 500/wk, on TRT.
I have cycled remotely (6-8 y ago) and only sides I experienced were acne and insomnia (including cycles that were test/tren/deca even). But things were different then and I have a lot of stressors now with divorce, child custody, huge work stress and not enough sleep, juggling time to see girlfriend, etc.
Even though I don't have a history of feeling irritable or having increased anger on test, I'm a little concerned about it. I thought it might help to hear what you guys have experienced, if ever you have become more irritable, what you did if so, or maybe enough positive feedback and I can stop worrying about it.

I think that the whole 'roid rage or excessive aggression is FAR overrated with AAS use. I'm not saying it cant exist but its exaggerated to a large degree. I think some people just use it as an excuse to act like an a$$hole.

I thought exactly this until my most recent cycle. I have told people for a long time that roid rage is a myth but my last cycle proved me completely wrong. Did I go around beating my girlfriend and freaking out at people? No, but if annoyed or irritated I would get angry.

Yeah, I wasn't referring to roid rage. Just with a lot going on I find I am pretty irritable at times as it is so just wanted a gut check prior to cycling. I have a good woman now and I don't want to f*ck it up, but I've heard good stuff and think it should be fine.

Irritability and anger are two distinct phenomenons, according to my experience. The former is usually more associated with stress states and hormonal imbalance. Being angry might effectively be triggered by AAS fvcking with your brain.
