Why is he on steroids? I mean they are often prescribed to people for a lot of injuries and conditions. And yes they do hve side effects.

 

But is this a medication thing or is he using them for some other reason?

 

He was a fitness model untill 2 yrs ago and broke his arm. Now he is a bodybuilder, thats why he uses them.

TFY is absolutely right. Leave. Being with an illegal steroid user is every bit as dangerous as being with any other illegal drug addict. There is good reason medical steroid use is avoided unless absolutely necessary and even then controlled strictly - long-term steroid use is incredibly dangerous not only to the person himself, but also those around him.

He's shy and his libido has become non existent

 

Yeah he did it wrong, like many guys he'll be on hormone therapy for life.

 

I've done it twice, have been off them for awhile and my natural testosterone now is much higher than it was before.

 

The only thing that really bothers me about it is how many young guys I see using it with little or no supervision. There's so much pressure on young guys these days to 'get big' 'have a six pack' etc that I see many teenagers at the gym who are all jacked up on roids and they are 15, 16, 17...

People talk about this stuff like its candy..

 

Its not...

 

Just think about this..(sorry in advance to the ladies)..Anyone who has ever been around any woman who is PMSing, and some are worse than others, can attest to how hormones affect a persons general demeanor. Heck I ahave been around some women who turn into totally different people when they have their period. That being said, how is anyone going to tell me that taking copious amounts of these hormones will have no effect on behavior? Nonsense..

 

And here is another thing to consider. Unless you are getting the stuff from a licensed physician with a prescription, then do you really know what you are getting? Most of the black market stuff on the market today is a witches brew of who knows what?? Some of the stiff is even mixed up in "labs" (really garages or basements of peoples houses)., labeled and sold in the black market..And people are injecting this stuff in their bodies with no supervision, no blood testing, nothing...

 

Its very dangerous..dont let anyone kid you or tell you otherwise..

Misuse or abuse of steriods can cause issues. Those using them to elevate beyond normal levels for the purposes of enhanced atheltic performance or appearances - face challeneges in controlling side affects on mood and health.

 

However, using them for medical reasons, properly mointored can lead to enhanced mood, health, life span, and social interactions.

I agree...However most of the "recreationsl" users wouldnt know what a properly prescribed medical dosage is. And most of these types are of the mindset that "too much is just about right"...

Well just to update, he's still been contacting me today but I've told him straight that if he can't come off the steroids I can't continue with him and I won't be contacting him again. I'll see what happens but I don't hold much hope. He's a walking zombie, void of any feeling or emotion so I guess it will hit him when the cycle is finished and things start to reconnect that he'll realize what an ass he has been and what he's lost. Its such a shame and Ive heard so many times from friends about how steroids destroyed their relationships because their boyfriends become complete morons and act exactly like mine has done. If I'd known now what I new 6 wedks ago when he started them I would have dumped him on the spot before bs turned into a lifeless moron.

Sorry, but you dont know what you are talking about...

 

Anabolic steroids WILL cause all kinds of mood swings and behavioral issues. Yes, aggression is one, but also intense periods of sadness and "up and down and hot and cold" type of behavior.

 

Do you know that male sex hormones can and will convert to Estrogen and if left untreated will cause the worst case of male PMS you will ever see?

 

Steroids have been linked to suicidal behavior as well..

 

Do some research..Its been well documented. I think a lot of the reasons that football players, professional wrestlers and the like have so many problems after retirement is the comedown from intensive steroid use. I know the NFL tests, but dont think for one minute that there arent players on the juice..They dont get that big by food and exercise alone.

 

Very few people can take steroids without some negative behavioral qualities..Some roid rage, others become withdrawn. Some people also report that they lose most of their drive for anything other than laying around, going to the gym and screwing...

I actually took a cycle of steriods once (2 at once at the recommend dose for users). Its side effects are HUGELY exaggerated. I didn't have "roid rage". That only happens to some people who use extreme amounts over a long period (like football players and wrestlers). If anything my sex drive went up, but only slightly. My balls or dick didn't shrink. All that happened was I put on like 15lbs of muscle and got stronger. Then I lost every bit of it when I stopped. And I also didnt get depressed.

They effect everybody differently. I know ALOT who have had side effects, mainly bodybuilders. My bf (or ex I should say) totally misused them and has been doing double the dose by injection and tablet form. He's been totally irresponsible with them.

Nope, if he looks good, then no, he will have a lot of options. you will be just a memory.

Maybe at the outset, but once they realize they wound up with an emotional weakling, then theyll hit the bricks just like the OP did.

It depends on how much steroids. If he's doing a beginner cycle it shouldn't matter at all. Too much steroids may cause mood swings and all that, but those come from.... estrogen. That's right. When you have too much testosterone in your body, some of it aromatizes into estrogen. Now imaging a big muscular dude PMSing... that is what they call roid rage -- it comes from the estrogen, not testosterone. With the estrogen you'll also get "bitch tits", and increased chance of prostate cancer. Hence when people cycle steroids they often also do estogen blockers. Hope he knows what he's doing.

 

It really depends on a lot of different things. Is he on steroids becuase he's competing? Body builders that are competing do all kinds of crazy things. Like for example, cutting out carbs and go for hard workouts anyway. My advice is stay away from those people, when they are preparing for competition, because they are ultra grouchy. You would too if you had to force yourself to go though that experience. It's not easy to look almost not human, even with chemical enhancements.

 

Anyway, it could be many different things. It's easy to point at steroids, but chances are, that's not the reason.

 

But due to negative public portrayal of steroids, some people think it's really bad. Alcohol is actually worse than steroids. But you have 100% right to say I will not date anyone that drinks alcohol. So if you don't want to date anyone that uses steroids, that's fine. Don't date him. Plenty of skinny guys around.

 

FYI, I'm a skinny guy that's not-so-skinny anymore because I chug protein shakes and lift at the gym for many years. I'm still not a big guy by any stretch of the imagination, I'm just barely not-skinny, due to my inferior genetics. But I've researched steroids, I've read books about it, I've talked to bodybuilders, but I've never used it myself.

 

Do the research. All the crazy things you hear about steroids come from crazy amounts of steroids. Chug a whole bottle of asprin, and you'll get mangled. So how can you expect not to see any negative effects when some dude is running around with 20 times the normal amount of testosterone in his body all year around? Hell you can die from drinking too much water. Be responsible is the key.

Drugs are so rampant in sports and fitness world.

 

A 21 year old that just won NPC came out with his drug cycle. Many take way more than just steroids...HGH, insulin, peptides, synthol, etc.

 

Untold truth epidose #3 - YouTube

 

OP, people can rationalize it in many ways, but at the end of the day steroids are drugs. There are mental side effects, mainly the way they improve your body can become addicting, not even considering the physical side effects. You have to consider if you want to date someone that uses drugs.

Yes he looks good but he's been taking huge quantities which is why he's got the problems. He still keeps messaging me telling me he misses me etc but its not enough

Hand him 2 peanuts and tell him that's the future of his manhood if he keeps on that path.

I knew a few guys that did roids back when I was still playing ball. I just don't understand it but whatever. One guy did flip out and wrecked an IHOP bathroom and got arrested. He told me later he was scared and paranoid and looking back couldn't believe the things he had done.

Exactly.

 

Does anyone really think this chick picked this guy for his personality or common interests? No she picked him for his looks and those looks came from steroids and now she's pissed off.

 

Girl, you got what you paid for.

The guys I knew taking roids were ugly as feck.

 

One guy looked Samoan but wasn't. He's the one that mashed up the IHOP.

Yes, my GF chose me MOSTLY for my face/body/height. girls jump on a chance to date a good looking guy that looks great. just like guys do with women. they are in high demand. he will have more options though. dont be naive. roids or not. its the roid that will help him more. and if hes tall and built and looks good? psshhh, youre in trouble missy. they are in very high demand and wont have to try hard.

whether it successful or not, its something else but yes, people cant help but to look and want to get close to good looking people.

 

try to talk it out with him. I doubt he'll stop the vitamin ;) :pinjections but maybe he will lower the doses. how do you know how many grams he takes? do you know what he takes?

Yeap!

 

Chick that made this thread didn't pick this guy for his character she picked him out because he was 'BIG' in his pics. That's why it's all 'oh he wrote me love poetry and he's so SWWEEEEETTT' and then BAM, 'what a jerk he does roids' and blah blah blah.

 

No different than when us guys date a stripper or something difference is we are big boys and freely admit that we stuck our foot in the bear trap because 'she was HOT' sort of thing.
