Jump in fellas, it's for a good cause!
Some of the webpage titles:
Legal Issues with Steroid Use
How to Spot a User
-this boderlines on stereotyping...no single VISIBLE side effects from steroids can be definitive markers for identifying a steroid user. People who are natural can easily experience rapid weight gain(new lifters), acne, water retention, and any of the other sides I'm sure are going to be listed under this sub-heading. I do not think that its fair to steroid users to be identified by superficial 'tell-tale' signs of which I HOPE you have peer reviewed case studies to back up these allegations. I'm sure not even an Endocrinologist could distinguish a person with natural acne and steroid induced acne. I'm positive that a cardiologist could not distinguish between a person on steroids with adema, and someone with a cardiac condition who is experiencing adema. I'm also sure that a personal trainer or dietician could not distinguish between a person that gains weight rapidly and tell you which one follows a strict bulking diet and which one is a steroid user. Consequently, from a category like this you are also going to be penalizing people who follow a strict diet&exercise regimen but who may get acne naturally and a little adema, and people will now classify them as steroid users. Im sure that we all know because of the recent media coverage of steroids, the public at large now views anyone who remotely looks like they workout as a possible steroid user, and that is not fair. This category is not only an injustice to the steroid community, but to the bodybuilding community as a whole.
How to Talk to Your Child about Steroids
How to Detox from Steroid Abuse
-This category also uses a choice of words which does not represent the steroid community accurately. You "DETOX" from narcotics, you "RECOVER" from steroids. Detox implies that you have toxins in your system such as illicit recreational drugs and need them out of your system. When you come off of a steroid cycle you RECOVER your bodies natural ability to produce its own hormones again. Additionally, steroids are not illicit recreational drugs, they are powerful synthetic hormones. I do not believe that they deserve the categorization that you have given them and I believe this is an injustice to the responsible steroid community and represents them inaccurately.
Side Effects of Steroid Abuse (long and short term abuse)
Dangers of Steroid Abuse (health risks, prison, death)
-Once again, there is absolutely no scientific medical evidence which can support ANY claim of death to date. To even include this in your sub-category is unethical. There has not been a single death attributed to the use of steroids, ever. There are absolutely no peer reviewed medical studies which indicate that this is a likely side effect of steroid use even where steroids are abused. If you can show me the peer reviewed study, journal, or autopsy report from a coroners office then I will retract my previous statement. Until such time please refrain from publishing unfounded and undocumented statements.

It’s doubtful, but possible that I was unclear. As WELL indicated within my preface, this is not a steroid bashing thread!
Granted this guy looks like the cartoons from MF & Flex, but not exactly what I'm looking for here.
Are there any tales of damage: internal organs or physiology; relationship (gf/wife/family/friends); financial; etc. that you know of?
