Creatine ruined my life no joke

[rebalishjared]

I haven't took creatine for about 2 years now. Ever since I took creatine for a couple months straight, years later I carry a water gallon jug everywhere I go. I am legit permanently thirsty, my mouth is always dry and I always have an urge to drink. It's like I can never quench my thirst.
I used to love drinking alcohol and feel great, now when I drink alcohol I just feel like **** and get tired, I think it has to do with me being permanently dehydrated, and alcohol makes you more dehydrated so it just makes me feel like ****.

When I play sports even after hydrating all night before, 30mins in the sun and I feel so dehydrated, like I feel as if I am still on creatine to this day.

Bruh this literally all started happening right after I took creatine my senior year. I know everyone is jus gona say Im trolling or stupid and studies show no long term side effects, but creatine did **** me up.
I'm just wondering if there is anyone else out there that has had permanent dehydration problems like me since taking creatine, and how tf do I fix this problem.

[aaronuconn]

I doubt there is anyone with a similar situation as you, as creatine shouldn't be causing that issue.

[TrainerTone]

If.thats the case stay away from red meat as well

[Timmy_522]

Might just be me, but i missed the point in your post where you said you had been to a Doctor to see what the cause of this problem actually is.

[TheFuarkingBoss]

lol it's all in your head bro.

[macwad]

I've heard rumors that nowadays there is some types of humanoides (some say they are aliens) called "doctors" which could help you.

Just kidding...
Buy, yeah, go see a doctor.
You probably got some strange disease at the same time you started taking creatine, but attributed the problem to the creatine.

[MaximumCapacity]

You know those threads about creatine they weren't a joke

We're all gonna make it brah

[mtpaquette]

That's crazy. Your body must be comprised of like 70% water OP.

OP if you're actually having legitimate problems with dehydration, you need to go see a doctor. It has nothing to do with your creatine use 2 years ago.

[Brdprey]

ok , how much do you sweat?
you have an excess of water going out
maybe you dont eat enough salt. doesnt salt help retain water? or is that the other way around?

[powercage]

Well at least we know you dont have rabies

Strong first post, you need to seek professional help.

[Charontes]

Could be the 'betus.

[TBoneBrah]

It could be adrenal fatigue OP, do you drink a lot of coffee/energy drinks or take pre-workouts?

If you do take a pre-workout, did you get that the same time as your creatine?

Also, do you eat a lot of refined sugars and/or processed carbohydrates?

If it is adrenal fatigue you may have some luck supplementing with:

Vitamin C
Vitamin E
Vitamin A
Vitamin B6

Hope this helps OP

[powercage]

No


It couldnt. Adrenal Fatigue is not real.

Are you currently on any medication?
Go see your GP, it's HIGHLY unlikely your symptoms are due to creatine.

[ahawk01]

For something you get from red meat the placebo effect is enormous.

[TMac26]

Sounds like the beetus.

Its rubbish you need gallons of water while taking creatine, i have been taking the stuff for years and only ever drink about 3 pints of water daily. Dont listen to these guys who say you need x amount its rubbish, and even bad for you.

[Sozzeled]

Someone is trying to lower the price of creatine stock so they can buy low and stock up!

[hellstorm2004]

I get thirsty all the time. Same as you! I don't blame it on creatine. My body is used to about 5 liters of water everyday. Its natural i would think.

And hey its not a bad thing being thirsty.


I would only worry about this problem, if i was going to a Saharan expedition. Otherwise, its all okay when you are in civilization and water is freely accessible.

[italianplaya30]

I am constantly drinking water and it has nothing to do with creatine, creatine draws water into the muscle

Our muscles are 80% water! you need water

[hossjob]

Your thirst has nothing to do with creatine. I easily drink 2.5 gallons of fluid daily without thinking. Your body needs water. More is better in most cases.

[nikefighter]

Meat naturally contains creatine and your body already uses creatine to produce energy for you started supplementing. There is nothing wrong with creatine. Just check your not taking too much and that you're drinking plenty of water or you're gonna get kidney stones.

.... Are you like.... Phucking retarded

[Manatk]

Sounds like fatty liver
Do you still drink alcohol?
I'd go see a doctor and get a liver ultrasound asap.

[TMac26]

He does have a point. How much water needed is usually over estimated. Even @ 3 liters a day he is drinking 3/4 of a gallon of water.

[gbullock32]

Could be the 'betus.

My first thoughts too.
