I have questions for people who use steroids.

If you could please provide feedback so perhaps the negative stigma of steroids could be lessened. Again, I have no issues with steroids.

1. Do they eliminate the need for pre-workouts? Do you feel energized and fired up 24/7?
2. Did they help you overcome a fear of needles (if you had a fear of needles)? If so, then that could definitely be a strong selling point that is overlooked by the mainstream.
3. Are you sick of having to use needles all the time? Or has it become 2nd nature, such as taking out the recycling or wiping down your kitchen countertop with a Clorox wipe (toxins)?
4. Do you feel the negative dangers of steroids are not justified? Everything in the world seems to be harmful. Why the specific hate against steroids when people choose to partake in drinking, eating junk food, smoking, or breathing in pollution? Steroids don't seem any worse then everything we are subjected to in daily life.
5. Are negative side effects caused by poor quality steroids, user error, or your specific body chemistry not able to handle the specific steroids you are using? And if this is the case...and then if you try other types of steroids...and the same thing happens... perhaps then, steroids are not for you? And if you keep using them, then you're just adding to the unfair stigma of steoids being dangerous?

Well, thank you for the answers. I think people can do what they want and you still need to train hard and eat well to get results. Appreciate it.

No, steroids and most drugs are not good for you.
It should be obvious by now.

Use common sense if you have any.

If you are trying to rationalize whether to use or continue to use steroids it is just that...a rationalization.

I have questions for people who use steroids.

Steroids can give you overall energy but can also zap it. Some ateroids are like sleeping pills to me e.g.  Anadrol and Dianabol.

I've seen many cases where the first  injection almost caused a panic attack. After that they insisted on diing it themselves.

Injecting gets very emotionally taxing flr heavy users many times. It's not really a big time consuming thing but they start to hate even seeing the syringes after a while. Even the insulin and GH injection they complain about and it takes 2 seconds and you can't even feel it.

Constant steroids are potentially dangerous in the long run, I'm talking decades. A couple of 8 week cycles a year is nothing really "dangerous " The damage accumulates.

Even the so-called bathtub steroids are pretty safe, provided the raw steroid powder they use is the correct steroid and not contaminated. It's an easy process done at home. I've never done it but you preferably need a magnetic stirrer, preferably a heated one, a glass beaker, the raw steroid, the solvents benzyl alcohol abd benzyl benzoate  once mixed you run it thrhough a filter into enmpty 10ml bottles. The filter sterilizes it. Done

I always say steroids can improve and damage health at the same time. They can add years and quality of life and they can lead to an early grave.
Dan Duchaine used to say everyone should do an 8 week cycle a year just for health lol.

Do whatever makes you happy, you only go around once, but remember muscles are only rented.................. ........................ ........ unless you believe in reincarnation.

Unless you are a competitive bodybuilder or you suffer from a debilitating disease, you don't need to be taking steroids. The cost-benefit isn't there.

if you are getting old and need affirmation from your friends or young women, spend your money on therapy instead.

[Van_Bilderass]

The cost-benefit isn't there.

Would you say some test and GH from an HRT clinic can never lean more towards benefit. Like post-menopausal women sometimes taking estrogen, and now increasingly testosterone too.
