Intelligent thoughts.
I realise the MAJOR DOWN is coming. The plunge has just begun. Good fucking times hahaahaa
MY reasons to come off for bit were and are legit. Ive been cycling on and off for years so I KNOW when my body is telling me things. Heart palps and mind fucks were NEVER sides that I have experienced so I decided to LISTEN.
i DO feel better....for NOW
If that's what your body is saying.. whatever works!
I know the feeling too. I still think long term, low doses are the way to go but I know what you're feeling. I got that way too, and a huge mitigating factor is the pinning and anxiety as you put it. It can and does fuck with your head a little and nothing else but some time off alleviates that in full. You'll feel great and then you'll get the itch again, and cycling will feel fucking amazing again.
Almost weird to enjoy coming off and not being on. It seems like an oxymoron. I like low dosing it too though. I sort of did it because I was poor, but also because I never wanted to deal with the big crash (mostly because of the acne, loss of sex drive and depression - in that particular order). The GOOD thing though is that when I do crash, I notice that it's only for a day or two and then it really tapers off.
What I suggest to friends is to make sure that they come off leaner rather than chubbier. Even though you'll feel like a tiny tit you'll at least feel in shape. And make sure to abstain from CNS stimulants before coming off. Not only for anxiety, cardiac and other issues but because you can really use it to jack up your workouts, eat a lot and not put on fat (allowing you to eat a lot above maintenance to stave feeling like a pussy). That's at least how I like to come off. I'm not coming off for a long while though. Taking my physique to new levels but I always go very low dose save for a few blasts of anabolics when I can afford it.
