Steroids

bull ****in shit. my uncle owned a gym in chicago for about 20 years and 4 out of the 6 of my uncles were amature Bodybuilders. if you think "roid rage" is complete shit then you know nothing about them...

I know more than you think. I have been researching AAS for several years. Like I said, please go find a study that says conclusively steroids cause "roid rage". Its more of a placebo effect than anything. I have seen guys who have shot straight VEGATABLE OIL thinking it was a AAS and gained literally 25lbs of lean mass. Dont underestimate the placebo effect, its very powerful.

No you are dumb man. Assholes who cant control their anger in the first place are the ones who "blow up". When you have experience with them come back and talk to me.

its certainly not a good thing but think of it this way. in the last 10 years theres been countless number of professional athletes taking roids (obviously) and have you heard of any professional athletes flying off the handle and going nuts like all the science books and after school specials show?

sure his personality is going to change due to the added testosterone but chances are he wont turn into the incredible hulk.

agree 100%, it all comes down to maturity - most younger guys don't know how to control the anger and emotion in first place and then before you know it they snap.

what I would advise your friend is to make sure that he has his PCT in place, his natural production of test will be supressed; this is where a lot of people go in to a major depression by not getting their natural production system back up and running. If he doesn't know what PCT is then he did not research enough into steroids and their proper use and that is what can cause him long term damage.

Ur right, its the dumb ***** that cant control there anger. Its good to know as long as his PCT is set up he will be A OK when it comes to health after his cycle.

Me? I have had experience with both HGH and Steroids. I noticed my temper had become much worse and my ability to be passive had dissapeared. I have shot up 600mg dosages for almost a year and by the end of the cycle I was at the point where I would start shit with anyone for anything. Dont tell me there are no clynical studies to prove steroids and anger dont have a connection

"Another condition that is frequently discussed as a possible side effect of anabolic steroids is known as "roid rage"; however there is no consensus in the medical literature as to whether such a condition actually exists. Testosterone levels are indeed associated with aggression and hypomania, but the link between other anabolic steroids and aggression remains unclear.[94] While some studies have shown a correlation between manic symptoms and anabolic steroid use,[95] later studies have questioned these conclusions.[96] Currently, three blind studies have demonstrated a link between aggression and steroid use"

clearly there is no proof that is does either but if you ask people who have taken them, they will tell you it does effect your emotions (becuase that is what testostorone tends to do)

It completely depends on what steroid is being taken. There are tons of different combinations that can cause aggression, and others that shouldn't. I'm sure half of the people here say "oh yea roid rage is crazy" because someone in high school they knew thought it was cool to juice and the placebo effect really got to their head.

Roid rage is over-exaggerated

There are other factors that will determine if he is A OK, like blood work to make sure his counts are back to normal, his hi/low cholestoral are in line etc. PCT is his first line of defense to make sure he does not slip in to the depression that so many people fall in to due to improper planning.

What do you think?

Well maybe you should learn how to properly cycle, if you didn't mistype and run a yearlong 600mg dosage you should be lucky if your natural test even restarts itself with a serious PCT.
