Boy, this is hard to do at times when it pertains to steroids. No one KNOWS I use (I don't know what this says about me..hehe) but some may suspect it. The only chance I get to talk about it is on the net. For something that I find so interesting, when the subject comes up, I have to hold back and say little or nothing at all. For e.g., a few days ago the talk at the office turns to drug use in sports, and in particular at the olympics. I hear a bunch of fallicies thrown around and misinformation that I just want to jump in and correct or state my opinion. But by doing so I would basically be outing myself as a user, so I shut up and let them carry on. Or take yesterday at the dentists office. They x-ray my tooth that I recently had a root canal on and are amazed by the amount and quickness of bone regrowth. I just want to jump up and say..."It's because of the steroids!". But I can't. It's quite hard to keep this 'secret' bottled inside. After my next bulking cycle, I'm going to come out! I can't stand the stress anymore     | ||

I know exactly how you feel. I hear people discussing professional sports and steroids all the time and they have no idea what they're talking about. I always feel like educating them, but then I realize they will probably figure out why I know so much. So I just act as dumb as them.

I know exactly how you feel. When I'm at work I hear people talking about it, and it just pisses me off how ignorant these people are. I'm sure some people may suspect that I use, but thay don't know fore sure. I have to bite my toungue and keep my mouth shut. Some of these stories I hear are almost funny they are so stupid. disclaimer: [This message has been edited by timac (edited September 27, 2000).] | ||

bump... I think the public's lack of knowledge on the subject is the main reason for all the negative imaging and stereotyping of steriods.  | ||

Hey bro im in the same situation up here at school...nobody knows...but when i hear idiots bashing roids....i answer back well i would rather take roids then take the shit you guys do like E, weed, special K, or what ever they take...I go look at it like this there is a edjucated steriod user taking steriods...theres a cracked out bum....now you say roids are bad for you lets take a look at it...crack doesnt do any good for you body only harm....steriods when taken correctly actually benifits your body with minimal side effects...now what do you want to take crack and die very quickly and does alot more harm to the body...or take steriods which help you greatly when taken correctly....everyone always say steriods...and i win the arrgument.... later g | ||

Well sometimes its ok, sometimes it comes back to bite ya. I like talking about it with people, I dont exactly care if a few of my friends know, even the ones who dont even lift or give a shit. well I come home from college last weekend to my parents and right before I leave my dad and I get into a big argument, and the subject of things I have been doing comes up. He says he has friends, my friends as well, that I know that have informed him what I have been doing and are concerned about my health. Not many people know and there are not alot at college here that actually know my dad and would actually tell him, so be weary. I'm just so excited about things sometimes that I cant keep my mouth shut, I love to talk to people about things and let them know. Maybe its not always the best thing since they really dont understand like we do. | ||

The social stereotype makes it too damn hard to educate even MDs on the benefits of responsible steroid use. Last time I had my test levels checked after a cutting cycle, the doc looks at me and says, "Check your testosterone? Why do you want to check your testosterone?"DUUUHHHH | ||

I'll bump this up...what I hate is when they say it's "fake" muscle, or that these guys (pros) don't even train hard...just shoot themselves up and 'voila...',INSTANT MUSCLE!! But again, I don't think they, nor I, should ever take any illegal substance that could have serious side effects and legal consequences...lol! ------------------ | ||

I hear ya bro... I have a "friend" who just came off a little Sust d-bol cycle..took his last shot about 1 month ago...he put on about 18 lbs and has only lost 4. If he talked to anyone about it he would most likely lose his job.. so he confided in me cuz he knows I can keep my mouth shut..which I have. My "friend" can't wait to do another cycle..but he will wait for at least 10 weeks and makes sure he has the Clo and Nov on hand... ------------------ | ||

The other day when i was at work they were talking about drug use in the olympics and how the people who use steroids are cheating and that anyone can get big if they use them. I was about to bite my tongue off not saying anything it relly pissed me off. The only reason people are pissed is because they are misinformed, scared of them, or don't have the money to afford them. | ||

That's funny bro, the same thing happens to me. They should be able to pick up on the truth because of how defensive I am about them. That and the fact that I know more about roids than a brain surgeon does about the brain. That's funny. ------------------ "Faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death." |
