I hope no one takes direct offense to this, but we share a lot of our personal lives on this forum and it appears a good number of our members have some kind of emotional, mental or physical "dissorder" we will call it.
We all know the world/media/general public looks at the use of anabolics (fact based or not) as a danger to themselves and others around the user. They always talk about the Chris Benoits, Lyle Alzado's, and lately the Raoul Moats of the world and point to the use of steroids....
Now this isnt a direct link to the use of steroids, but does the majority of the steroid using world usually have the kind of "issues" that can lead to the kind of behavior that the media links to steroid usage?
There are many reasons why people use anabolics, could be as simple as TRT, a lot of youngsters want to "be big and intimidating", "better atheletes", not be "the small guy anymore", have "the ideal body" but is this an early warning sign of potential insecurities, feelings of inadequaties that forshadow later more imminent issues?
I know Im having trouble getting to the point Im trying to make and the question I would like opinions on, but I will ask it like this....
Are people who are inticed by the prospects of what steroids can do to/for them, the same kind of people who are typically found to be a little less "stable" psychologically?
Again, I know some people may take offense to this, just trying to look at the whole world of anabolics users a little differently. I know you cant lump a group this large into a single sterotype so I dont mean the majority, just a good number of users.
Feel free to give all comments and also to tell me Im full of shit if you feel so.
