TRT and OCD type disorders

[T Man]

I got an infection about 2 months ago and it triggered OCD like symptoms. Mostly some troubling phobic or obsessive thoughts (sometimes very scary). I got scared of a few everyday household items. It came out of the blue one day. I woke up sick one morning with a lung and sinus infection/sore throat. I started having strange phobias and goofy thoughts. My Docs says it happens sometimes and hopefully would resolve itself. Any one ever heard of this? Someone told me TRT would also help resolve this. What are the safest and most effective meds for this type of thing. Any info or experineces would be appreciated.

T man I am on TRT and when I had high E2 levels my prostate was acting up and I had one bladder infection after the other going into my kidneys very painfull. The dam infection would eat up my Testosterone levels I would go down from 875 to 450 from the stress of the infection and get like this. My Dr. told me it was the T levels going down and to stop this when I got a bad infection he would add to the gel I was on a 200 mgs shot of T and this stopped it. I tell men here that lowing there T does will make you crash big time and now that I read what you had I know it will mess you up if your on TRT or not.

Yes I think I actually crashed as well. My Doc gave me a small 10 mg shot (subq with an insulin needle) of cypionate one day in addition to my 2.5 mg patch to see what what happen. At first i felt better and than I got some anxiety a few days later so she stopped.... Told me not to take another one. I think my level dropped enough to screw me up. Than a few weeks later I got the infection with all the weird phobias and OCD thoughts. It was like a switch was turned on a few weeks after the shot was stopped. I know that the drop in my system was responsible for this nonsense. Now that I am taking Klonopin everday perhaps I can up my T dosage and adjust to it without anxiety problems.

If you do keep an eye on your E2 Estardiol I feel you are on to something.
