POLL: How many people think AS makes you a better person?

[MadCow1]

I read somewhere that test - or some version of test - used to be perscribed for depression as well as lack of focus and concentration (I believe this was so long ago that the medical commuinity was surprised by the masculinization of female patients - maybe 1940's).

Anyway, there were lots of uses and applications (positive sides ). I think that these effects combined with the general positive feeling lifters associate with increased strength and muscle size are responsible for what everyone is refering to.

I think most of the positive effects on this thread can be acredited to bodybuilding in general.

I do agree, but the AS is a JUMPSTART. It reduces time.

I agree with Frack here, but there is no questioning the possitive effects AS has had on many of our lives either directly thorugh true physical, physiological, and pshychological transformations or through indirect "mental highs" that come with achieving our goals made possible by AS. Bodybuilding itself cultivates a sense of pride and well being into us. It is no doubt an ego trip. A confidence joy ride that get better with every set, every workout, every week. Bodybuilding for mast of us is a source of pasion and exueberance that makes days that much better and challenges that much more bearable. What we learn through bodybuilding, discipline, dedication, toughness, and even a sense of invincability all play a larger role iin our "everyday" lives. Knowing that you're a rare breed capable of far more than the average human sedentary slob is quite the kick in the confidnce rear end. The use of AS exacerbates these qualities as it makes our time in the gym that much more rewarding thus making all the possitive atributes of the gym that much more luminous. I have also found, as I'm sure most here have as well, that our quest for physical perfection has led to an insatiable need for more and more knowledge about human physiology, nutrition, exercise science and yes...endocrinology. The more educated we become the more usefull and fullfilled we feel. Knowledge is power and we utilize this knowledge in many ways, not only to better our physiques. Whith this ever evolving knowledge comes an ever evolving sense of self-worth and an expanding facet of pride in ourselves. AS do have pshychological effects on well-being, but it's the real work we put into this sport/art of bodybuilding that truely enhances our quality of life.

When on AS everything seems to go just as I plan. Nothing seems to ever go wrong. Girls come in by the hand fulls and I am always in a happy mood and just have unbelievable confidence in myself. Love this stuff!!!!!

God looks up to me!

Bodybuilding in general has made me a more complete person, I've always been mentaly strong now I'm physicaly strong as well. I do the AS to reach my goals and not so much as to reach them "quicker" I worked damn hard before ever trying them, even now, I pretty much only do Test & d-bol. I plan on taking it one step at a time and not rushing things. I think in the end when I'm on top of the podium it'll all pay off. It's not enough to be confident in just your body, you've got to have confidence all the way around. I have a friend who has been on AS for a very long time & is built extremely well but, once he meets the girl, all he can talk about is himself because he lacks confidence and direction in every other aspect. Bodybuilding is an excellent start to all around happiness. It has definately made me a more controlled "calm" person Simply for the fact that I know if I blow my top when on AS I might rip someones fucking head off!
