how do you guys feel on low test?

[Dr.J]

I've been off for 6 months.  Feel tired all the time, lost muscle, gained fat, also depressed.

U?

[Henda]

Shit, tired like you say, no enthusiasm, lazy. I'm pretty sure physically softer (as in cuts and knocks hurt more) or maybe that's age

[NaturalWonder83]

If I choose to take test is this what I have to look forward to?

Only if you stop taking..

[Waller]

Shit to nothing. My emotions slowly dissipate. My gf calls me flatliner.

The exact same way. I'm actually going to start slamming again soon 

[Competitor 9]

I think the worst part is the worse I feel about the way I look the less I want to diet and the more I lake motivation to get at it again. Maybe im alone on this

No you are not, I'm also upset alot and don't look forward to much, amazing what a huge part it takes of our daily well being and outlook on life.  I also take things alot harder,  intstead of shrugging things off.

U?

I need something more in my life...


I still get excited about intellectual shit, sometimes. Philosophical questions and all that. Questions of mortality get me more freaked out and feeling more alive than I ever have before.

But something is still missing

Bottom line: The Grim Reaper's approach is more exciting and more life affirming then I ever expected.

But I still really, really miss the warm glow of having a surplus of testosterone. I feel saggy.

At age 27, I had a blood test once and came back 150ng/dl (normal range 300-1000 or something). I was still horny and had morning boners, etc. But mentally I was moody, depressed and anxious.

I had it retested a few weeks later and came back 350ng/dl in the afternoon, so maybe 400 ng/dl if blood was taken in the morning. Still too low for a 27 year old. Doctors wouldn't do shit about it, so I just experimented with low dose clomid (10mg every 2 or 3 days), I made some new muscle and strength gains on the clomid, and got hairier.

When I hit 35 I decided to self-medicate with test. Mood and muscle gains improved but nothing mind blowing. Just feel more "alpha" and in control.

How the fuck do women function with 30 ng/dl of test? Or children with zero test, though kids have high gh levels, less insight into the fucked up nature of the reality we live in, no responsibilities, and a brain like a sponge soaking up new and novel experiences an information on a daily basis.

My theory is that testosterone is an addictive substance that you become dependent on, after it has been in your system a while. Testosterone causes permanent changes to the brain and body, and when it is removed the system doesn't work properly anymore.

I like this theory!

[Coffeed]

Definitely.

Side effects include rage and criminal behavior, unfortunately.

[Papper]

Damn, doesn't sound that appeasing.

I am that way when I am hungover.

Terrible situation to be in come an end-of-days scenario. Also would really be an uphill battle should you make it onto Naked and Afraid.

[Svengoolie]

My experience was it was the same mood as when  you have a really bad flu. Don't care to eat, Fuck, or do anything. There was also a day or two I couldn't get hard to save my life. Pretty scary crash, that I'm just recently slowly feeling like my old self.  not sure I'll do it again, even though the on cycle experience felt incredible. I just hated the feeling after like I had made a small deal with the devil.

I think that makes sense. Even though your body produces it naturally, you are still introducing a foreign amount of it into your body, and after you stop things naturally take a while to recalibrate. Same reason opiate users/addicts feel lethargic and depressed after stopping due to depressed dopamine levels (the rest of withdrawal syndrome notwithstanding).

This thread has become very pathetic. Lots of estrogen in this thread.

Before I went on "TRT", I was tired, low energy, low libido. Just kinda "old" in general.

Even at low doses, there is a definite difference in mental acuity and drive/toughness, even if the muscle-building effects are negligible.

[The Grim Lifter]

I cycled for 4 years. Came off at 24. Hated Cycling and feeling crappy then going back on and feeling 'uptight', my Red Blood Cell count was climbing higher every cycle. Took maybe a year before i felt completely normal even though i remember having blood work done 4 months after and my test levels were normal. I feel much better now i have never had any desire to go back on and it's been almost 12 years. I was shitting myself i would lose all my muscle but i didn't change. I had 4 years natural training before i juiced so that obviously made a difference.
