Any thought on PC depression?

i myself never have experienced an PC depression but i hear about it alot, most in (negative) studies or cases. One such case was when that boy Taylor Hooten out in Texas supposedly commited suicide due to coming off of juice. I dont know the mental or physiological reasons as to why this would happen. Im wondering if anyone here has experienced this or if anyone knows the physiological reasons for this to happen.

A lot of it comes from because after your cycle is complete and the compounds you have ran reach thier half lives your natural hormone levels are extreamly low because of your HPTA functions being shut down. With out a normal hormone level you will feel depressed, bad mood swings, get acne (or more), maybe see gains fade............... so with all that for some it's a hard time to deal with.

Running a good PCT will help get HPTA functions back up faster and help alleviate some of the sides of having low hormone production.

the problem with the kid, was he was a KID. teens hormones are already crazy, and gear (especially coming off) with totally throw those levels out of whack.

responsible adults can handle this change much more maturely.

This is true............... but many adults do go through the depression he was talking about. Just like oldef males that need HRT. There hormone production is in the dumps and they are walking around depressed, mood swings, libido problems........ Then they get on HRT program and they feel great.

things lke htp-5 i think it is called (which you can get in any supp store) tribulus,zma and other things can help fight off the depression,alot of the depression is mental too,.losing some size,strenght and of course the naturally lowered test levels..

i'm thinking this might fall in the same cat. as roid rage in that it effects a small percentage

roid rage is a thing that dickheads use to act even more like dickheads..if your an asshole off gear your going to be an asshole on and when on many find that they now have a viable excuse to act like fucktards..though some compounds like halo,fina,cheque drops can increase certain aggressive tendancies..

I have some input, might not be much but. The only pc depression I suffer from is knowing I lost 10lbs in a few weeks while eating like a horse and working out constantly and taking clomids and all the other shit. That sucks, your still 10lbs up, but your 10lbs down too. Suck it up. All, and I mean all 3 of the cycles I ever did were gained back, within a few pounds! Took a while but I bounce back. Three or four months with proper diet. Can't wait? As far as the other shit? Testosterone is a powerful drug my man, I can tell you that. I don't condone any other shit. Some will take antidepressants, I don't but then again they may suffer more than I do. I don't feel on top of the world either but oh well. I see it as just another tough few months to get by. Not like I have never been there before. In your world your a rich man loosing a fortune man! Take a step back brother, take a step back. Your just a rich man posting a buck to gain two. The real failure starts when you throw in the towel bro.

thanks for the input, and yes i agree with with IP cause no matter how much gear ive been on, i never felt any roid rage. If your an asshole, youre gonna be an asshole on gear as well. Well put homie lol.

and ill never throw in the towel bro. I work my ASS off on gear or not. Either way lifting and bodybuilding has become a major part of my life in the past 3 years and that my friend, will never change.

Not sure about the whole depression thing. I think it has to do with your condition going in. I get depressed but that’s a fact with out gear and I imagine that that is the case with everyone who claims to get depressed as a result of gear.

It really comes from those that don't know proper PCT regimen.
Most don't even know what the hell clomid or nolvadex is.
Unfortunately its a lot of non-informed users.

i think that if you get depressed enough to kill yourself because you lost 10 pounds then you had alot more serious problems before that. ive never been depressed ive lost weight and size but that just made me want to get back in the gym that much faster. hell i lost 15 pounds after i tore my bicep and im still down 10 of them and im not depressed i just cant wait to get the diet together and get my body ready to get back on. Its just like roid rage people cant control there hormones and actions just like previously said.

With proper PCT you shouldn't lose too much unless you're not eating enough to maintain your bodyweight. That's why most people lose so much. After cycle they let everything go to shit and wonder why they've gained nothing in the end 2 months post cycle.

Take your nolva, proviron if you got it, and most importantly up your food (protein) intake a bit. Using this formula I've gone 2 months post cycle without losing but 1-2 lbs and keeping strength at about the same level.

If commiting suicide was due to comming off the juice then there would be a lot
more dead guys around. If you have thousands of guys juicing and one commits
suicide, is it the juice? Mabey it was just the guy. Like when Lyle Alsado got
brain cancer he said it was from steroids - If that was the case there would be
a lot more football linemen w/cancer. His doctor even said there was no evedience
it was from the steriods. A guy could be juicing and taking every other drug available,
if something happens to him "it was from the juice" - It's the media bro.
