Feeling sleepy on test cycle

[Qulan]

I am feeling very sleepy on my first testosterone cycle. I was supposed to get more energetic and lively, and with testosterone I got the contrary effect. Is this a normal thing some guys will suffer with testosterone, or this is something unique to me?

It's not normal.
Are you taking an e2 inhibitor? Like Aromasin or arimedex ?

Lethargy are sings of high estrogen and since test converts to estrogen you always gotta use an AI

Do you take an AI? I didnt see you mention it

That is a normal thing for those guys who do not take care of controlling their estrogen levels during the cycle, and something tells me that you do not do that. As a consequence, you get one of the estrogen's side effects – lethargy and sleepiness. Start taking an AI ASAP, and this problem will subside rather soon.

water retention is going to make you sleepy. just imagine carrying a gallon of water on your back all day, wouldn't that make you feel tired?

not to mention the stress you are putting on your heart.

a big mistake some skinny guys make is they hop on the sauce and gain a lot of weight fast. this is not good for your body!

I remember my early years I did that I could barely walk or stand up from bed bc I literally made through 15 pounds in one week

One aspect not mentioned is that you might be lifting and training more. Roids let you do this but it still tires you out.

While I agree with Mobster, that an Increased Work Load in the Gym may make you tired.
That should only be happening after you work-out.

And Not for the entire day.
I would get some Bloodwork done to see where your Estradiol is at.......................... JP

Most likely your problem is due to high estrogen levels. Simple fix. Add an AI into your cycle.

The best choice of an AI is aromasin -> https://www.evolutionary.org/aromasin-exemestane

I would look at the following:

-estrogen levels
-staying hydrated
-proper rest and sleep
-diet
-overall health
