I finished up my PCT around 6 months ago (early Sept.) and my PCT went great but then I crashed. I ended up getting acne really bad on my back, and lost a patch of hair in the back of my head about the size of an egg that still hasn't grown back. The acne only lasted around 4 weeks but the bald spot remains.

I went to my doctor and he said that I was in perfect health. Great liver enzymes, test levels normal for my age, normal cholesterol, regular blood count, etc. Basically I'm in great physical condition at 35 years old.

However, ever since coming off my cycle I've been really, really unmotivated. I find it hard to get out of bed sometimes and I have a constant feeling of dread. My doctor has tried to prescribe me anti-depressants but I've refused to take them. I have lost some of my gains but still muster up enough will power to hit the gym at least 3 times a week for maintenance work. But sometimes I even get unmotivated while I'm at the gym and end up leaving after 2-3 sets.

I'm pretty sure it's a post cycle downer since I felt like the bionic man while on so this brings me to my question. I'm not planning another cycle until after the summer but have a lot of gear sitting around. I was seriously considering running TRT to see if that got me out of the doldrums. I'm talking a light dose of 100-150mg of Test-e EOW.

I'm 35, 5'11 205lbs 12% bf. My last cycle was in July/August '09 and I ran test-e, deca, and winny.

When your blood work was done did they check your thyroid? Hyprothroidism can present with depression like symptoms. I would go get additional blood work done and try and fix this on the medical side.
I don't believe in fixing gear problems with more gear.

I would definitely get your natural hormone production checked to see where you stand.

you said test levels normal for ur age? what is that #? docs dont share the same normal opinion as we do. at 35 you should be 500-700 T level, dont consider TRT unless you really need it, remember its forever.
