do AAS make you "feel good"?

[SpecialK]

This may sound like a strange question, but I have read on this and other boards people posting how a certain AAS (test or dbol, for example) makes them feel good. I have also read that higher testosterone levels are related to feelings of "well being". Do AAS have a noticeable effect on your general mood?

yes...because for me it is a lifestyle thing...you can't bring me down when I am on a cycle because like I said it is a lifestyle thing for me

[Gabrielle]

damn..that was some gibberish..yes...it affects my mood in a positive way

High testosterone levels are correlated with improvments in mood and well being. This is seen when T level move from moderate or low into the high levels. If your Test level are already high taking the dose higher does not effect mood in the studies I've seen.

This change is gradual and will not improve psychological conditions like depression.

I can't say my mood really gets any better. I notice a slight difference with injectable B12 but no positive changes from androgens. Plenty of negative changes from anadrol though.

The only real difference i noticed is being exhausted a lot (growing is tiresome). The feeling of well being I get is just in response to better gains and progress overall. I'm pretty much always in a good mood, not even tren at high doses can effect that.

I always feel pretty much that same way when I'm on a cycle. For some reason I seem to stay tired while I'm on. Like I've just come home from a 16 hour work day. I dont feel that way ALL the time, but towards bed-time, wake-up, and few hours after workout - definately feel wore down.

I do see my confidence level rise while on the gear though. That could be becuase I get into better shape while on though...

I definitely don't feel tired while on gear. I'm always rarin' to go.

[Big J]

Maybe its because I'm rarin to go a little too much, and I get tired easy, lol.

[ryuage]

it will make you stronger and bigger, thus making you feel a lot better :)

[POPS]

hell I'm glad to be off my cycle. I felt like **** all the time. Probably cause i didn't listen to the board and my first cycle was to high in dose. Sus 750mg/ew, deca 600mg/ew

High androgen levels are correlate with sleep apnea so you may not be getting as much quality sleep at night which is making you tired.

i find it extremely hard to sleep on high doses and it definitely ****s with my mood hardcore....on low doses i never felt as moody as i feel these days but lately my life has been stresss and then some.

[Big J]

Yeah ST, I can never get a good night's sleep while on. I get like 5-6 hours tops, when I normally get 8-9. Either that or I'll get like 3-4 hours 2 nights in a row & then finally be tired enough to get the normal 8-9.

Hell I dont know what I'm talkin bout, lol :).

Yes, steroids often give the user an increased sense of well being, depending on which drugs they are, what they are stacked with, or what the persons reaction is to them. Most of your testosterones are going to give you the "high on life superman" feeling. The drugs that are most associated with fatigue are drugs that are highly androgenic like d-bol or anadrol. An increased amount of androgens in the body is directly correlated with fatigue. When I'm stacking dianabol I'm constantly tired, even with test. Another reason for being tired is all the stress your body is undergoing from growing so fast. Every drug has its different effect for me, but I'd have to say single ester tests(not sustanon or t-400) are the mac daddy of good feelings!!!!!
