Drol will mess with my head even when on it. Short runs 2 weeks max w/ the Drol.
Post cycle? I'd say anyone w/ serious depression has no biz CYCLING AAS. If the have a med issue to be on nonstop and Dr care is another matter.
Coming off a big load hard is no joke. I've had WAY better results tappering down to 200mg wk prior to PCT. I got lab work to back it up too. Everyone is different though.
Agreed...long hard cycles are the toughest to come off of...particularly long hard diet/comp cycles. In that case, you're already completely run down, and then you abruptly remove all the drugs...this can be miserable for a short while. But a good PCT, keeping your food intake solid and just simply "manning up" is the ticket to getting around this.
BTW, subpop200, low sodium diets are asking for trouble IMO. The only time you should be messing with your sodium levels is at the end of a diet right before a comp, or if you're having blood pressure issues. Your body needs sodium to function properly, otherwise your setting yourself up for some serious cramping problems, by way of causing a unbalanced electrolyte flow in your body. If you're worried about excessive bloat because of your cycle, having a good AI as you do will take care of this...also, as long as your diet and training is on point, you should be fine.
This past year I started getting some horrendous cramps all over my body, all over, bi's pecs, lats, thighs and forearms. I discovered by way of a little help that m electrolytes were way off...my sodium was way too low, and I was supplementing with potassium to help with the cramps. My thinking is that the potassium would help this, after all, you always hear that you should eat things high in potassium to relieve cramps. This may be true, but if you're sodium is too low, the added potassium will only make things worse...as I found out. I then dropped my potassium pills, and upped my sodium intake tremendously, and low and behold, no more cramps.
