+ 1 EQ and anxiety
ad
How many of you other guys experienced anxiety from Equipoise? I had to drop it. I’m not prone to anxiety but on EQ I couldn’t even look people in the eye. I didn’t like the feeling so I just stopped it and switched compounds.

AnonEQ sucks. Has me panicking by week 5-6 on medium dose like 400/week I think it was.
I’d take primo over it any day.
Aurel7659Hello, I'm glad you talk about this topic because EQ is know to be such a mild and safe drug in the bodybuilding community.
In reality, every time I included EQ in my cycle, not only I experienced anxiety but also my RBC went sky high to the point I was intolerant to any effort. I didn't notice any improvements in my cardio like a lot of people do, actually it was the opposite for me...
We all react differently to any drugs but this one in particular is very versatile and EQ should definetely not considered mild in his side effect to any body.
I used from 250mg up to 750mg per week of EQ during my experiences and even at the lowest dose I felt anxious and bad in general. And because of that, I couldn't enjoy life and focus on my training and diet properly. I will never run this molecule again, there are plenty of other choices and most of them are more potent than EQ
EQ causes me to drop E2 if I'm on a Test:EQ ratio of 1:1.
And inevitably this has a direct impact on the mood and can bring anxiety. It's the same (for me) with Masteron
Honestly, the benefits of EQ at moderate dosages is so minimal that I really wouldn't cycle it unless you're willing to run at least 800mg/week.
That being said, I can only emphasize not to run anything that gives you any psychological side effects. Anxiety absolutely is no fun, and taking valium or the like to counteract will only mess you up completely.
BigCactusI dropped EQ for good probably, I realised it just makes me depressed or extremely horny. I'm gonna miss those juicy EQ shoulders though. Alsof fucked up a good relationship due to EQ (and me being stupid ofcourse).
For me, adding proviron at 50mg a day (split dose, 25mg in the morning and the same at night) kills any unwanted psychological or mood issues associated with other AAS. It also has a decent anti estrogenic effect so can allow you to reduce the frequency of dosing of AI's which can also cause psychological symptoms in some people. I'm on my second EQ cycle right now (EQ, Deca, Test, Proviron) and am totally side effect free, and I'm certain that the Proviron plays a big part in that. Not cheap, but worth the investment.
AnonGood information.
Mate i ran EQ at 600-1000mg a week for about 4-5 months one time, strictly to test EQ’s personal effectiveness once and for all for myself. I really wanted to “like” that compound. Like all my other EQ runs, i did not get much out of it in terms of positive sides/gains, but i unfortunately did experience a massive increase in general/overall anxiety that felt like my nervous system was wired and messed up my sleep for about 2-3 months.. as the compound slowly left my system.
I did experience it one time about mid cycle. BP was jacked and so I donated and got on some meds for BP. That solved it.
Bud I get exactly the same feeling on EQ - On one hand it gives a really euphoric great feeling but its constantly riding right against a constant feeling of anxiety and worry especially if you start to entertain the thoughts. Test / DBol / EQ is what I use to run also and know exactly how it feels. My straight forward advice on this is not to mess around changing doses on the EQ - just drop it entirely as it will only get worse the longer your un it and the more it builds up. EQ is useless anyway, the muscle building on it is minimal and stacked against the high BP and headaches it just isn't worth it unless you can tolerate a gram of it purely for joint lubrication for heavy lifting. Test / NPP & Dbol is what you want to be using pal - way better feeling and more productive.
The best results I ever had were either on test only or test and HGH. That’s what I think I’m going to run from now on.
Agreed brother! A moderate test and HGH dosage is simple, safe and effective! No need to run complex cycles stacking multiple compounds! ++
Thanks, and I feel really good on cycle that way. Energetic, confident and overall just happy. Every time I tried different compounds I feel like shit
Its so important to feel good when running whatever compounds you choose to be on, feeling like shit 24hrs a day 7 days a week is no good. If you rely on it for a living then fair enough but if you feel happy, confident, have a great appetite & full of energy then the world is a different place :-))
That’s the whole point. To feel confident and look good. I’m happy when I’m around 200 pounds give or take. When I run multiple compounds and come off I feel like shit and don’t work out and lose it all. When I run test solo I don’t crash hard and stay going to the gym and don’t lose all my gains.
RustyhookerEver try anavar tail end of cycle? Its impressive!
Never tried anavar. I have masteron I wanna try but I’m afraid it will make me feel like shit when I’m on and after I come off.
I love Mast one of if not my favorite compound, stacked with some test and I feel aesome
Your not on trt
Nope
I got really bad anxiety on mast.. so I’m chilling a little and putting that on hold. Bro, anxiety takes me to a dark world!!! I never want to go back!!
My anxiety is way worse on tren than EQ
AnonWhat was your cycle layout?
Test 500 mg a week 16 weeks
Dbol 30 mg a day for three weeks
EQ 600 mgs a week 16 weeks
Maybe do daily shots to keep the blood levels stable. IMO
But dropping the dosage is best advice from @tbone69
AnonI bet dropping EQ to 300 will fix that anxiety. Was the anxiety during the dbol run?
600mg for 20 weeks is bro science for typical cycles for EQ, you'll see positive results at 300 for a similar cycle length. Also keep an eye on the BP and estrogen because the rising BP can literally trigger panic attacks. I had a huge bp spike on clen, it was full blown panic attack after that. I hate that shit.
I agree with this also. These high dosages people are recomendiing are just to high and not needed unless you want side effects. I run eq at 3-400 and love it.
I’ll try it again and see what happens.
RustyhookerLotta folks have said anxiety. I typically love eq but havent had the anxiety. Bp spike alone can cause it and usually blood donate, low sodium and hydration is key.
But if its not for you....its just not
But your a midget machine!!! Great advice. +1.
RustyhookerI love eq. Its versatile but if it hits ya funky, try the basic fixes. Not every chem is perfect for all. Even some folks cant run test high. Learning curves....
So true! I have figured that out once or twice. ;)
RustyhookerI found out tbol turns me into an aggro angry yard gnome. Dunno why but i get snappy mean and i bite. Lol!
AnonPeople run it way high because they read you need a gram for 20 weeks to get anything out of it..it's bs
RustyhookerTruth!!! Top quality real eq wont need wild doses. And ive gone lot shorter too since 5wk fallout to switches on tail end.
I can relate. When I was on my only eq run. Just looking at the dr. Made my heart race so bad. The dr. Sent me to get bloods because my BP was thru the roof. I dropped the eq after that day and never looked back.
Ha! (I don’t mean to laugh), but I’ve been there. Already, just going to the doc makes my BP go up. So every time I go, I get a lecture on how I need to bring it down... but as soon as I leave, I test at home, and it’s normal... so I feel you bro!
I hope you jumped on the NPP train
Tren lol. First time. I do love NPP though. Everybody says deca makes you bigger than npp but for me it’s the opposite.
They’ve done research on ester vs ester. The longer the ester the greater the overall anabolic effect. Makes sense if npp only lasts in your system a week and deca lasts close to a month. It’s just harder to notice because the size from npp comes so quick it appears greater.
But who knows? You might be an exceptional case
It’s that people just run more Deca than NPP, they’re both nandrolone so if you take 500mg a week of one vs 300mg of another you’re probably going to get more from more
Deca is my all time favorite! And I don’t get anxiety on it, but I do want to kick my wifes dogs ass all the time!! Lol.
