easy to say you could stop but then you never would once you start
everyone I know who starts does not stop
being on gear long term is not healthy, running big cycles for years is not healthy at all.
we all are addicted some just refuse to believe it

I'm on my first cycle, and I'm fairly young. 22, and been training since 15. I can be honest and say i might acutally even be a little scared on this subject i have put some thought into before.. I dont see me ending at all, ever. Cycle's, then off then cycle probably up until HRT. Shit my old man is a drunk though and hes 55, AND HE'S DECENTLY HEALTHY! I think this lifestyle is a hundred times healthier than some examples around me, not to "justify" anything. yeah, this is addicting for sure.

There are many ways one can justify there reasoning on why they are "not addicted " but I can say that 90 % are addicted.. and if they aren't using to get ahead in a certain sport and are using for recreational use, then yes you are addicted, me included. You can cycle safely and reduce the risk and call it a hobby , but at the end of the day if your use more than once, then I consider it a personal addiction, and I wouldn't change a thing. Because hey, I work hard, train hard and am doing well in life and am happy, and at least I'm not doing crack... Or becoming a skid mark of society

Most definitely NOT addicted.

I haven't cycled in years, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't addicted at the time. Psychologically, not physically. You work so hard to get where you want to be, and one day you look in the mirror and realize how far you have come. Heads are turning, compliments are flowing, haters are hating, women are staring, etc. It can be very hard to stop using knowing what you are giving up. The main reason I stopped when I did was because my wife got pregnant and I lost my old sources at the same time...

I view it as a muscle addiction, and not so much steroid addiction. I know I'll never be as big as I want without them so I want I keep using. They make you feel great too though. I admit I seriously miss the ON feeling when I come off.

You will notice that one of your personalities is seduced by the illusions of grandeur - the gold packet of king size with a regal insignia, an attractive implication towards grandeur and wealth, the subtle suggestion that steroids are indeed your royal and loyal friends, and that is a lie.
Your other personality is trying to draw your attention to the flip side of the discussion, written in boring bold black and white, it's a statement that these neat little soldiers of gains and are in fact trying to kill you and that is the truth.
Oh, beauty is a beguiling call to death and i'm addicted to the sweet pitch of its siren.
That that starts sweet ends bitter, and that which starts bitter ends sweet.
That is why you and i love the drugs and that is also why I cannot give that painting back. now please, pass me a pin"

I've been on and off since the age of 23. Competed in 2 shows, one in 1992 and another in 1994. After my second show in 1994, I went off until 2011, when I started TRT. All I can say is I was never addicted, sure I loved the feeling and look, but you can achieve a healthy lean look without them. The big difference for me now at age 50, is the recovery factor. It's so difficult to recover at age 50, compared to your 20's and 30's. In my opinion, steroids are more benificial when your older, because it allows you to recover quicker and still make improvements to your body. Obviously there just as important at a younger age if you're competing or training at a very high level. Just my 2 cents.
