I'm not going to go into all of the things I tried that had minimal results. I'm just going to give you the meat of it.
Fast. Just once, for two weeks or more if you can.
If you can't fast for any reason then do a juicefeast.
Home - Juice FeastingJuice Feasting | 4 Quarts a Day to Health: Cleanse, Rebuild, Rehydrate, Alkalize for a month or more. No need to do the whole 90 day program unless you care to.
You need to cleanse before you start anything. It will make your body so much more receptive to positive change.
Diet and lifestyle are absolute cornerstones in recovery.
Eat a paleo type diet and carb back load at night depending on your exercise regimine. Carb backloading is fantastic for manipulating hormones. If you're not sure what it is, google it.
Avoid gluten......this one food is so problematic I can't begin to go into it.
Lift heavy weights three times per week, but don't overdue it if your really in the shitter.....
Do HIIT once per week at first, then go to twice per week. I did sprints.
Cycle testosterone boosting supplements as outlined at
Boost Your Low Testosterone! Increase Low T Levels Naturally . As a matter of fact, most of what I did to recover can be found in one place at this site. He also goes into carb back loading.
****I also did several cycles of a DHT compound from primordial performance which helped in increasing the active enzymes that were wiped out by propecia. Unfortunately they have been shutdown by the FDA. There are other DHT based steroids that you could use, but I am not familiar with any others then androhard from primordial. Don't just jump into using these products unless you do your research. You don't want to end up worse then you are now. I had access to the producer of these drugs and he spent alot of time going back and forth with me on the science of how they work to increase active 5arII. It's a can of worms I'm not going to get into but didn't want to fail to mention it as I attribute the use of androhard and successful post cycle therapies to my overall recovery.
Meditate. You have to quiet your mind. You have to stop focusing on your problems. Focus on anything other then what is wrong with you. If you need to, stop coming to this site and reading the horror stories. You understand what happened to you, now move on. This one thing will set you in the right direction and make a HUGE improvement in your life. This will also help with sleep.
Take: B complex. Magnesium complex (the kind you dissolve in water works best) Fish oils. Take everyday at first, then go to every couple of days.
Stay hydrated.
Avoid intoxicants of any kind. You will be able to indulge again one day, just not today.
All of these things done consistently over TIME will yield you results. It can't not work. You just have to be diligent. How much do you want it?
