This is very confusing. Clomid temporary anti-anxiety.

So to give you a history, I started suffering panic attacks about 10 years ago. I was on lexapro for a while, which helped, and was medicated for ADD, which also helped. Four months ago, I learned that my dad had low testosterone, so I went in to have mine checked. 220 (340-1100 is the range), so my doctor put me on Clomid. Holy crap, did my symptoms get better. ADD gone. Anxiety gone. And I don't mean less, I mean gone. So much better, that I had to get off of my adderall. So I'm feeling great for 2 months. Slowly, subtly, the ADD and anxiety have crept back in.

I am still waiting on my lab results for testosterone, so if it's low, that well straighten it out. I'll know that it just isn't going to work.

If my testosterone isn't messed up, then all I can figure is dopamine, in which case I don't know what to do.

Has anyone else had experience with this?

No but low T can cause all sorts of symptoms. Might need a bit more of the Testosterone...maybe. Alankay

Yeah... that would be great if that is the problem. If it isn't, the options don't look as good.

That would be great, I can deal with injecting test, I can't deal with having my sex life destroyed.

How old are you??

I had my T tested last Dec 12th..256.
I've been getting T cyp injections every week since then 200mg every 7 days.
T is at 909.
I'm 46.
I also self inject HCG. .25 twice a week...to keep the boys. You know what I mean..
I also have ADD/ADHD...I take ritalin.
Usually the clomid will jack yer T up, then fall back off. Same as arimidex. It does that too.
I also used to be a bodybuilder...before my joints dissolved.

Nice to meet a fellow like me here, never seen one with the same issues.

I'm 28, with test at 220 and LH,FSH< normal and prolactin >normal off of clomid
On clomid, my test got up to 713 and I felt great! My LH and FSH were great, for a bit.
Further on clomid, my LH is at a female status of 15.5 and I have yet to find out my testosterone numbers. If low, really, if medium with that LH, my nuts are shot. Fuark.
As I said before, both my ADD and anxiety went away. It is all up to the testosterone numbers as to whether I am sorta fucked or really fucked.

2 months of freedom was awesome, but it makes now so much worse knowing what I can be like.

Also, I used to powerlift in high school, but never turned in my natty card unless you count creatine, lol. So I don't think that was the issue. I know several men in the bodybuilding and lifting community that had issues before they started doing anabolics and basically just never looked back.

T injections will get those numbers back up, or maybe even a simple switch to arimidex may help too...yes, my nattys were in trouble with the weekly injections but the HCG has done wonders so far.

I hope they can get your numbers back up bruh! Yes, a 2 month reprieve was a blessing but it'll get back again..just some adjustments is all.

So, update. I think that the testosterone was a symptom of a deeper problem, as I got my numbers back today. After 3 months on clomiphene, my testosterone is back up to 770. If it stays that way, great. I have been trying to explore my anxiety and it has gotten better. Hopefully it will stay that way. I am still curious about the reason that my anxiety got better on clomiphene. Really weird. If anyone has anything to say, please do, I'll keep this bookmarked for years and reply.
