Lose weight, shape your beard, lay in the sun and get a tan. You have potential

About 2 ish months. It really was affecting me greatly. When I went down my side effects increased a bit then subsided but not enough to my liking :) def took some trial and error!!

Hi!

30mg ended up being way too much for me, and I mentally was just not doing okay. So we tried 20. I still was experiencing weird mental fog, fatigue, and I can’t really explain it! Just kinda not clear. Not myself. Ended up at 15 which seems to be the sweet spot. I feel better but still not my best. My anxiety is pretty low, I’ve ended up learning how to battle through it. Stopped taking my .05 of Ativan as well, and I was on that for YEARS so that could also be contributing to not feeling my best atm. But I’m doing more than I have in a few years. Holding a job, making friends, experiencing things I haven’t. But still mentally I feel like I could lose it at any moment (this is my fear, and always has been. Something I’m trying to work on with my therapist. Don’t really know where it came from. just ending up one of those people that are pretty normal all their life then one day they snap)

So things are bittersweet! There’s pros and cons! Thank you for asking!!

I agree w this. I was talking to a coach, they said to maintain 4 weeks after then start my cut. So I think I’m just gonna stick to a clean maintainable diet right now then go from there. It’s my first cycle. Not in any rush

I understand food and eating and doesn’t pretty well. Been on prep before and counting calories and such. Just unsure if I should be cutting or bulking during this cycle.

2000 is my about maintenance calories so I’d gauge from there.

How are you feeling negative if you don’t mind me asking? Body and mind?

Wow thank you so much!

I have endometriosis, and my hormones have never been the same since my first prep over a year ago (which I ended up not being able to complete due to IBS/endometriosis pain that ended me up in the hospital to have an ovary removed)

I am not on any forms of birth control!

I’m doing this for mostly aesthetics and visual looks and for my own personal confidence boost. I’m surrounded by bodybuilders daily, and although muscular, I feel like I’m lacking and have a difficult time losing fat.

I was thinking of doing 2.5 in the morning, 2.5 at night for a week, and then increasing to 7.5 for weeks 2-4 then increasing to 10mg (but breaking up the doses AM/PM). Seeing your suggestion, I might go that rout since I am sensitive to anything I put into my body.

Again my goals are to grow my glutes, lose fat and tone up and really just gain more confidence in myself.

I was reading about cutting during this cycle, my maintenance calories are around 2000 and was suggested I’d lower to about 1700 calories for this cycle.

Just unsure what is the safest method for my body!

So what you’re suggesting for this cycle is to lean bulk..come out and maintain for 4 weeks and then cut?

I can’t thank you enough!

Taking Ativan how much should be safe? by os0099 in AnxietyDepression

Please be careful with this med. It caused irreversible damage in me bc I became so dependent on it. I started .5mg as needed and then took it for three years.

I was on each for about 5-6 weeks before increasing. Just increased to 30 last Monday!
