r/Creatine

I am a 18 year old female i hve been working out for only around 3 weeks and am going away to college now and have ordered creatine to take since i now will not be able to work out every day. Now only 5 days so im hoping it will keep the progress i have made aswell as show more. I already drink plenty of water.

What is your opinions?
I lift weights but need to find a proper structure to it
I do cardio everyday a mix of running and walking for 40-60 mins

I’m still in shock!!! My wife’s BF proposed to her last night after I paid for them both to go to Paris to get a break from my whining.

He’ll become the husband, they said they want a new bf, and basically… I’m out.. Do I need to leave this sub and stop taking creatine?

I’m genuinely in shock!! Obviously I’ll continue to pay their mortgage and cover their holidays, but I don’t even know if I’ll be allowed live in my yard tent after the wedding!

Creatine has fucking ruined my life!

Would hoofing theoretically work or would it just well... You know.

I can’t drink a lot of water because I pee a lot! And I find it annoying to always excuse myself to use the restroom. I’ve been taking creatine for years but on and off but recently I’ve been consistent for 6 months. I love the strength gains that come with it but I heard that someone had to go on dialysis because they took creatine for years without drinking a lot of water. Is this true? I’d rather quit creatine if it affects my kidneys because I truly cannot get more than 2L of water a day.

Hello! I put creatine in my overnight oats to prep for two days of lunch for work. I have seen online that it will become creatinine which is a waste material. Should I throw my meal out because now it is harmful? Thanks for the help.

Sorry if this is the wrong sub!

Diagnosed as non celiac, suspect ncgs.

I was fine with gluten until I was 18-19 when stress and anxiety crept up on me like a desperate blanket that stole the essence of experience from my life and left me unable to rest, with nothing but heightened anger/irritability, confusion, brain fog, insomnia and a feeling like someone injected glitter into my veins and dropped me in the middle of a desert blindfolded.

Eventually I discovered gluten to be the culprit.

I started taking creatine recently and got the same symptoms from it. Obviously the creatine is gf and a different brand had the same effect.

Only difference being when I stopped creatine the symptoms went away within 24h, whereas gluten is always a slow return to sanity.

Has anyone else experienced this?
