Is it true gear can make you sucidel?

I doubt it bro, unless you already have psychological and emotional problems, but you should consider the state of your mental as well as physical health before you consider steroids.

Having said that be prepared for a post-cycle crash, watching your strength drain away when you come off sucks and you can expect to feel a little down and maybe even depressed but I don't think anyone in a stable psychological state would consider taking their own lives just because they've dropped a few lbs off their bench press.

You know I heard recently that steroids cause permanent changes in the brain even after just a couple doses. I do not know however whether those changes were considered to be bad or harmful. Anyone else hear of this? If I can find the article, I'll post it.

I've heard certain drugs can cause certain chemicals released in the brain to become more abundant, but they return to normal post-cycle... and the increase is almost negligable.

One of the suspected causes of depression in males is low testosterone levels. The drastic drop in test levels post-cycle can be linked to bouts of depression or suicidal ideation. Yet another reason that adequate PCT is MANDATORY.

One should also be prepared psychologically ahead of time. Realizing that your hormones are just screwed up, and that they will shortly return to normal will help mediate the depression somewhat.
