All have been understanding in the past, but because of the stigma in regards to anabolic steroids that has been hammered into people's heads since they were children in kindergarten, it is quite literally IMPOSSIBLE to completely get the notion that "steroids are bad and you shouldn't be doing it" out of some people's heads. I have tried my utmost to convince some people that the risks associated with anabolic steroid use are in fact even lesser than that of driving a car to and from work/school every day, and these people will agree with me, but then deep down in the back of their heads, the seed that was planted since they were a kid by the government and the media that "steroids are bad, mmmkay?" comes out and you inevitably hear the "well I dont think you should be using them anyways".
They'll put anabolic steroids up on their own pedestal, tell you that you shouldn't be using it (even though you have actually convinced them that it's not as dangerous as it has been made out to be, and not even as dangerous as other risks we take in our daily lives, and then they will go off and lead their own lifestyle engaging in equally (or MORE) harmful and selfish pursuits as anabolic steroids. Oh, but those things are okay.... even though they are in the same category as anabolic steroids in terms of risks. But anabolic steroids are not, because they'll cherry-pick anabolic steroids out of the pile of shit of things that are "bad for you", set it up on its own pedestal, and shoot it in the head without regard for all the other bullshit.
So, yes, tell your significant other. But don't give a flying fvck about what they are going to say to you in return.
