forget roid rage...
I'm a college student with ADHD. To combat this i am prescribed Adderall. For anyone who hasn't had the opportunity to take this stimulant, its great. Reading uninterrupted for hours, writing incredibly long papers with little need for a break, super human ability to ignore SHINNY OBJECTS, etc etc. Its a great medicine for those who have ADHD(or who don't)
However, I can get incredibly irritable/ quick to anger while taking the stuff. I will be starting my first cycle in a matter of a week (just Test E) and was wondering if anyone has been on a cycle while taking Adderall, and if so have any of you experienced an increase in irritability or any other sides from consuming both substances.
Congruently, if i could take a substance to keep my mood relaxed would be even better; D-bol i hear has some mood elevating qualities. is this also true while taking Adderall?

Be careful when you start your cycle and monitor your blood pressure regularly.. aderal and alot of steroids raise your BP therefore the combination can be dangerous
DfizzleUmm..... Everyones different but I personally dont have short fuse issues when I run test alone. Its almost like the opposite, test makes me happy. By that I mean I feel healthy and my moods are improved positively. I experience enhanced aggression in the gym, helping the intensity of my training. No anger side effects. Just growth, increased appiete, increased libido like a mo fo, brr mood and fiend for the gym.....love it.
tread-mDbol is a no go for me in most situations but yours probably more than others A simple test only run 500 split for 12 weeks adex or aromasin on hand. Temper flare ups from gear (for me) seemed to be associated with higher bp. higher bp was due to water retention and wate retention was do to not drinking enough water, not enoughb cardio, too much salt probably due to lack of discipline in diet. This was early on and I didn't know I was even having higbh bp at the time. You don't think of those things when you are young but you should. My advice would be drink pretty much nothing but water staying away from soft drinks etc, limit salt a great deal, cardio at least 3 times a week (prefer daily) and keep a check on bp. If water begins to come on you can pop the adex or aromasin in for a bit. I check my water a couple times a day via putting my hand around my wrist. For me, we're all different, I like my middle finger and thumb to not be more than a half inch apart and if it is I know I'm holding wate and get on it immeiately. Being new to gear your finger and thumb may touch so that is your gauge. When they won't touch you know you are holding water. Control the bp and the temper is usually good for me. The other thing is I began (way too late) to recognize rage as weakness. So in doing so and telling myself it was weakness I was able to find strength to control it. Sounds hokey but its true, its not stength and it does not make you a badass it just makes you a dick. Recognizing that helped me control it when the bp was up on rare occassion and I could not get it in check. I still have the urge to break shit I PAID FOR on occassion but I tend to be able to contol it. You have to be resposible to run gear brother and I think you can handle it. Working on your masters you already have some discipline so use all the tools you use day to day and take good advice from around here and it will be a success for you. Lay your cycle out in the forum before you run so you get all the help to lay it out right and have everything on hand you need.
really great info, luckily i've got pretty good discipline so most of the time i just walk around and glare at people when im angry haha. also interesting was the Blood pressure info. I'm hypertensive as it is so I'm prescribed a BP med to keep it under control. perhaps i'll upthe dosage during my cycle
I used to be quick to light the fuse so to speak. Things would start to go sideways and I would look for using the Nuclear option first. Then I started driving long-haul and figured out real quick that blowing my top (or allowing myself to blow my top) was obviously NOT an option. Put it in a mindset that whatever someone did to provoke me was not worth it. Not going to say it was easy... there were several times I wanted to us 80,000lbs punt some moron in a beemer off into thet woods because he cut me off. Never did it tho (did do some cussing in the cab where they couldnt hear me tho). 20+ years later and still use that mindset. Paid off in the long-run too... did several stints as a bouncer with no issues, and retired as one of the top Heavy-Haulers with the company I worked with. Guess what I am trying to say is if you recognize you have anger issues, don't just think "well, thats the way it is" change your mindset and attitude to one of "they aint worth it" and KNOW when to ignore em and walk away. It's easier than you think, and is no different than anything else in setting up for a cycle. Diet, work ethic, and ATTITUDE are all things to have before doing a cycle, don't have those right and its just time and $$$ wasted.
adderall is just legal meth, prescribed way too easily. you might have a hard time consuming a good amount of calories since it makes your appetite go down the shitter and will drop pounds off you like crazy. good luck. i cant stand the feeling of stimulants of shit like that personally, makes me wanna down a bottle of nyquil if even that works just to get some sleep
In regards to getting Adderall too easily in the US, it really depends on what state you live in and it's controlled substance policies. In my state an MD can not prescribe Adderall or any other ADD/ADHD med without sending a patient for a series of very detailed psych tests. Then if you get the prescribed med you have to physically go to your doctor's office to pick up the prescription each month as they are not allowed to just call it in to a pharmacy.
I agree with you on not using Adderall while on cycle since it does kick your metabolism into higher gear which burns a ton of calories. Conbine that with the fact that it also curbs your appetite and it can make putting on size a little tough. I always stop taking my Adderall when I cycle. On the bright side though using it to cut weight is great. Between 20mgs of Adderall a day and 3IUs of HGH I can eat just about anything I want and my body fat percentage never goes over 12% even if I get lazy with the cardio
I occassionally take ritalin on my cycles in order to work more efficiently, sometimes for recreational purposes too.
I have had no adverse effects from that at all. Adderall is a bit different, but I don't see why there should be a problem.
Just leave the d-bol out, there is absolutely no benefit in using it as a kick-start over prop.
Just curious, is adderall better than ritalin? Have been wanting to try it out for some time but somehow I can only get my hands on ritalin.
I've taken both. i don't like the feeling Ritalin gives me plus it feels like the half life is an hour or two for some reason. Adderall is where its at bro
adderall is stronger imo by far
^^ agreed
D-bol and testosterone are virtually the same thing and testosterone has just as much mood improving qualities as d-bol does, I don't know why or how it was dbol that got the reputation for it.
Any strong androgens will increase aggression, in the sense that when presented with a fight-flight challenge, higher levels of androgens will influence people to take the fight option. What this means in the real world is that when presented with a situation that sparks fight-flight (and this doesn't necessarily have to literally be a fight, it could be something like a verbal argument with someone) you are less likely to back down. A lot of retards reading this will go "fuck yeah bro" but not backing down is not necessarily a good thing. Especially in the workplace environment.
Hmm knowing the flight or flight instinct is set in motion by the sympathetic nervous system, would be interesting to know how androgens interacts with the nervous systems receptors
how old are you bro? if your still in college i wouldnt suggest taking a cycle just yet....
I'm 26. got a late start and am working towards my masters. I like the concern though
oh alright my bad bro figured you were just a 21 year old looking to jump into juice too early!
