   I am interested in reading how some of the longtime juicers handle "roid rage" Mt GF told me I changed from a great boyfriend to a total asshole while on cycle. I thought I was always an asshole. She said I was short tempered, aggressive, easily pissed-off. It took everything I had in me to not jump down someones throat. I ended up using GBL to get myself into a good enough mood to be around her and her six year old son. Kids will be kids, but I wanted to beat her child (I didn't tho, God knows how I kept from it) This cycle I would like to enjoy her son, and be around her (BTW, I just found out last night that I'm going to be a dad myself) Since she is now an emotional wreck, I need to keep my head and not blow up at every stupid thing. So my question is how some of you handle the rage. I don't want to use G this time, I need to be in control and not drugged-up. Any suggestions appreciated. IP: Logged |

Make up your mind that you're going to chill out while on this time. It's all a state of mind bro. If something starts to piss you off, find something that works for you, like going for a walk for 5 or 10 minutes or something like that. When the situation starts, go do this immediately, before it escalates. Good luck. --------------- Bossman IP: Logged |

What are/were you taking. I am on a cycle of sust/deca/dbol and I have only noticed a slight increase in aggression. My friends are on the same cycle and are the same way. I think it might just be a psychological thing and I think most people on this board would agree. In another words, the juice isn't causing it, you just think it is. IP: Logged |

I agree with boss. Two weeks into my cycle I got arrested for contempt of court because I ran my mouth at the Judge. He was ripping into everyone before me and I wasen't going to take the abuse. He was 25 minutes late to court and I was being seen for failure to appear. Well it was earlier that morning and I couldn't get there. The cock sucker had the nerve to yell at me about being on time. So I said "just like you were 20 minutes late to court"? He didn't like that and the fact that I was calling him by his name. I'm not going to show respect for someone by calling him judge when they think their above the law and get a wood by treating other people like shit. I got pissed to the point where I found out where he lived and shit and was going to fuck with him but I got my head straight and droped it. It was a wake up call to pipe down. From then on when I'd get really pissed I'd just tell myself to relax or I'd be in jail (again). Worked for me. Later, Green IP: Logged |

Maverik I hope your wrong about that usually I'm REALLY laid back. I never start shit with anyone. The only time I ever get pissed is when I'm driving and if you lived here you would understand that. I was on a Primoteston and Ref-B cycle. It never really started until I started using the Ref-B. It arrived late and I started it 3 weeks into my cycle. I just started a sus/deca/winny cycle with an amp of leftover primoteston the first three weeks. IP: Logged |

I guess it is different for everybody bro. It is true that test increases aggression but I haven't had any major problems. My tolerance for putting up with shit is a little less but I have yet to lose my temper, even with my always bitchin' girlfriend. My opinion is that when you are getting bigger, you feel more powerful than others and get offended when they test your patience. In another words I don't think that the gear causes it directly. I think it has more to do with that cocky, powerful feeling you get when you are growing like a weed. But I am not a doctor so what do I know anyway. This is just my opinion from what I have seen in myself and my friends. But everyone is different so who knows? IP: Logged |

Hey Mav, I had already thought the exact same thing. I did feel more cocky. I think your right in some way, and my aggresion was also up from the juice. I would still like to hear from some others opinions so some of the new guys can handle it without going to jail. Green, I think you were smart to drop it. Some judges are power hungry and would have made an example of you. IP: Logged |

Bro, I find that i can be fine but as sson as somone gets aggressive with me i pop..! I happned the other day but most of it is in the mind but all the chems floating round in your body will cause you to get a bit annoyed this is how i have figured it out I have a better feeling about myself when on a cycle and an more confident im also more likely to stop and turn round if somone is calling me a name or trying it on...! Also if they get funny i want to take a peice out of them but that is where you have to try and keep it under control Its hard as hell but it does also bring out the animal in you so if you do have a nasty tendancy to yourself the roids may bring it out more..! If it starts getting really bad maybe you should think about stoping Roids for a while My girl friend says im a bit more hyper but thats all. Also if you do say karate breathing exercises help look some up..! i do karate and it helps me when im getting really stressed i do a couple of breathing exercises and im OK...! ------------------ IP: Logged |

If you already have a short fuse, it's gonna get shorter. I've had many a meltdown while on. But I already have a short temper to begin with. When I'm clean, I can usually control it. When I'm on, it's damn hard to keep my cool. Do as said above, find something that works for you. At the first hint of anger, do it. If you can't control it, stop juicing. It's not worth ruining your relationship and soon to be family. IP: Logged |

I have just finished the 2nd week of my test cycle and it is just at the beginning stages to kick-in. i have already noticed the short-fuse...ok, i dont really notice it...But it seems that everyone else has been jackasses, pushy bastards, and whiny bitches and they just turned that way about two weeks ago.  Had to take a V tonight because some fucking airline lost all my luggage (I estimate that loss to be around 8G's) and now is refusing to pay for it...says they never received it. If i could have reached through that phone I know i would have beat that sonofabitch half to death. When i really needed to vent about this there was no one around...got more angry. After 10mg of v, my pulse and bp are back to normal. might get some good sleep 2night. IP: Logged |

If a person nautrally has a bad temper (ok I do)and cycles in the high mg's, it will happen with or without self control. Super nautral hot heads may consider an antidepressant, (Paxil, Prosac). Again, only for the super hot heads that may regret the outcomes of a full blown rage. IP: Logged |

I hear you. When on Sust. I pretty much go apeshit. I wanna destroy everyone and everything, if I do something as simple as hit too many red lights on my way to work. It's literally almost uncontrolable. I didn't take anything for it. Just dealt with it, and figured I'd bottle it up, so the next time someone got in my face, I'd unleash all my bottled up rage, and smash his skull clean out of his. I know it doesn't help.... just letting you know I've been there. IP: Logged |

Rotten: Congratulations on becoming a father! I hope it will be one of the most joyous events of your life. Give some serious thought to how important it really is to be on a cycle right now. Is it so crucial? You're probably a young guy, with plenty, I mean plenty, of years ahead to pack on the mass you're looking for. Meanwhile, the lady you just got pregnant (She's your girlfriend, right? Not your wife? You gonno keep it that way?) could maybe use being around a guy who's able to see beyond his own brawn, and see things from her angle. Pregnant babes get really touchy that way. Anyway, I'd really give this whole gear/rage/attitude bullshit a rest, at least for awhile, until the news about the new baby settles in. Like I say, there's plenty of time, my man, to get huge, plenty of time. Just my $.02, but I've been there, done that. Bjaarki

I can't honestly say I haven't wanted to beat somebody's ass while on a cycle. But, I have enough willpower to go to the fucking gym and be in pain all the time, so I definately can keep myself from kicking someone's ass. ------------------ IP: Logged |

I actually become a less aggressive and moody during a cycle. It is mainly because I know that I do not need the stress (that brings on catabolism). ------------------ http://2thick.elitefitness.com IP: Logged |

you are using AS to be a strong person, maybe you should also exercise your mind and control your temper. a real man will never hit a child and only a coward would ever hit another womans baby. so just find a way to vent without resorting to fists. IP: Logged |

Stickboy you've gotten the wrong idea. I don't care how pissed I was I wouldn't hit a kid. If I was to pick on someone, it would be someone bigger than myself. I even passed that test tonight. Her son had a black crayon in his pocket. She washed and dried it with some of my more expensive shirts. Needless to say, I have about 5 or 6 fewer shirts. So if anyone needs any shirts with black spots all over let me know. The topic is "ROID RAGE and how to control it. Tips for the newbies" I am looking for advice for some of the new guys to AS, so they can manage it better. I used myself as an example to better explain what I was looking for. From stickboys reply, I see that I failed. I agree with what stickboy said, but that is not the issue. Anyone, no matter what size they are, should never beat a child. I was explaining the "battle" my mind was going thru while on a cycle. I agree that some of it is mental, but alot of it is hormonal(sp?). You are basicly putting yourself thru puberty, and that can really screw with your emotions. I guess if I had to say how I would answer my question, I would agree with ajc1977. I lift so hard that lifting my arms hurts so bad, that striking someone is out of the question. I think you've got all this built up (whats the word...frustration, energy, self-confidence, test) something and its just trying to bust out, you've got your everyday bullshit problems, and your emotions are just totally screwed...I can understand why some people blow up. I don't justify it, but I understand it. Guys if your feel like you are going to explode don't do something stupid thats going to make you regret it later. Hit a wall, or your fridge, or pump some iron. Enough of my book it seems that I'm writing. I was just wondering how other people handled it. Bjaarki, it seems like you've got your shit together. Thank you for the congrats. Yes, she is my girlfriend not my wife. We have talked about getting married, but we want to get married for the right reason. Not because she's pregnant. I think people get married that way and end up getting divorced after the babys born way too often. When, not if, we get married it will be because we want to, not because we have to. We are going to be together forever anyway, so why rush it. Guys if you think your emotions are screwed-up on juice, you should be around women that are prego. Crying one minute and eating again the next. I'm just getting started. I still wouldn't trade it for anything. Sorry I got way off topic. I've got to go and beat my stepson now.(kidding stickboy) IP: Logged |

ajc1977 OK id like to know how you came to that conclusion the last time i actually had a fight was 5 YEARS ago so dont talk to me about being ignorant when you DONT EVEN KNOW ME...! I said i was more likely to have a go at someone. I CAN and DO walk away apart from one incident the other day but that was warrented and i did not hit the guy and he apologised after saying he was out of order. Dont go slaging people off unless you have a very good reason and you know them personaly i would never call anyone here abusive names as i dont feel that im in a position to cast judgement on people. And i dont see how you can give me hassle and draw on the conclusion that im a prick just on the couple of posts you see everyday as its not even a slight insight on the kind of person i am. I hold no anger against you and there is no stored up conflict between us..! Thank you for your time. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Rotten: Thanks for the thanks for the congrats (yeah, that does make sense!). I can tell you'll love being a dad. It's a bit odd, don't you think, that none of the other guys who chimed on this thread even noticed the really big news here, that Rotten is gonna be a daddy! No, all the jawing is about roids, rage, and navel-gazing. Only Benchmaster seems to have even alluded to the big news. I hate to tell you bros that that's pretty fucked up! Get your heads out of your pins and stashes and hookups, and look around, bros. Rotten, you say you and your lady have love, intentions to spend your lives together, now you've got a baby on the way, yet you say you want to get married for "the right reason," not because "you have to." WHAT AM I MISSING HERE???? Bro, you better wake up and get down to this RIGHT AWAY! That "right reason" shit was LAST YEAR. You have GOT the reasons, bro! You better get done with your extended adolescence real fast, either that or learn to keep your dick out of the wrong holes. Babies need MEN for fathers, not ambivalent little boys! Your move, bro!

I am on my second cycle now and although I don't have much of a temper, I have a problem with being VERY SENSITIVE!!! I have to keep myself in check all the time by asking myself the question "did that ever bother you before??" - that usually helps a bit, but it sometimes does suck because you start thinking about shit that bothers you and you can't stop!!!! I am tapering off now and looking forward to 6-8 weeks of normal thinking. good luck! IP: Logged |
