Eq fucked with my head bigtime and it wasnt until I went off cycle combined with low test;, EQ causes anxiety and that is scientifically proven as it works directly on the brain and not through hormones like tren/deca
Stay away from that shit

See EQ makes me feel really good, its weird how some people have completely different reactions mentally. Like tren drives me into the ground mentally but some guys theyre on cloud 9 on that shit and feel god like. Thats another reason why its so difficult to give gear advice because everyone reacts different.
I heard that about EQ also, but never experienced it myself.
Ive been through depression hell. Hormones can do it, but typically not to the point you describe. Sometimes there's 2-3 peices of this puzzle. You can do a neurotransmitter test with a good Doc too. SSRI's are not a road I've ever wanted to go down and I've tried them. YUCK. You could try just a nice low dose of 150mg a week of test to get your hormones going again. That couldnt hurt. It could help significantly. Did anything else happen that could have disrupted your system? There's some good stuff like BPC157 that induces brain healing and can help regulate your neurotransmitters. I would start that as well. Going farther check into Celebrosylin I used that to solve depression and anxiety issues.
I?ve seen hormone crashes hit months later, so the delay isn?t weird. I?d get bloodwork checked and talk to a pro. It?s treatable, and you?re not alone.
and depression popping up months later can happen if your hormones never fully settled, so getting bloodwork done is usually the quickest way to see what?s actually off. Talking to a therapist helped me a lot during a similar slump. Even simple grounding routines or browsing something chill like www.smokeday.com for a distraction made rough days feel less heavy. You?re not crazy for feeling this way, and you don?t have to white-knuckle it alone.

Low test fucks with your feeling. Mine dipped under 200 before I got TRT. Depression, anxiety, low self worth you name it I had it. Make sure they get you back to a normal level. I had to fight with my doctor because he told me I was good to go but my Test was nowhere near where it should have been.
Actually my test e 500mg/week helped me a lot with my anxiety and reflux. During the cycle it went so good that I stopped taking paxil and IPP, and the effects of the cycle lasted for more than 1 year after...
Never felt depressed on or after
I came across this older discussion and wanted to add that integrating mindfulness techniques or breathing exercises during practice can sometimes translate into better focus during matches. Have any of you had success with these methods, or are there other non-medical strategies you've found helpful for maintaining concentration in such a dynamic sport?
Getting lab work to check your hormone levels seems like a great first step. Also, speaking to a healthcare professional about antidepressants could provide some relief. On a side note, while exploring treatment options, I found it useful to check out what is fp10 as it helped me understand the prescription process for medical cannabis, which some find beneficial for mental health issues. Consulting a specialist might shed more light on your situation.

I?ve been struggling with depression for years and have been seeing a therapist for it. When I get back on track, I usually either stabilize or experience a boost, depending on whether I maintain my focus, which prevents my mind from wandering. Confidence and self-worth soar during these periods. However, when I lack a clear focus or direction, I gradually retreat into a state of self-destructive behavior.
One helpful strategy I?ve adopted is journaling my thoughts to understand how and why I reached a certain point. As humans, we experience a range of emotions and feelings that can be challenging to manage consistently, especially when juggling work, bills, family, and personal responsibilities. If depression escalates to the point where it becomes self-harming, it?s crucial to seek immediate help and surround yourself with positive influences.
The only way to overcome depression is to make positive changes and seek support promptly. If you?re feeling overwhelmed, don?t hesitate to reach out. I?m here to listen and provide a safe space for you to vent. I won?t judge you or criticize you; I?m here to offer empathy and understanding. If you?d like my opinion, I?m more than willing to share it, but at the very least, you?ll have expressed your feelings and concerns.
As men and some women, we often feel the pressure to be the ultimate leaders and conquerors in all aspects of life. However, it?s important to remember that we?re human and deserve to take care of ourselves and our well-being. Sometimes, we need to shed the armor of our expectations and embrace vulnerability to relieve the weight of our responsibilities.
