My Good Friend Tried Steroids And Was As Strong As Hell

"I guess to start I've always been one of the tall skinny guys(6'1), bad genetics, bad eating habits, etc. But I was gonna be damned if I would stay that way my whole life.

I payed for my weight during the football season because I was a linebacker & worked my ass off & was respected for it for the most part, but respect doesnt tackle a 250 pound runningback running at you. I guess I was pretty strong for my weight too, by my sophmore year in highschool I weighed a mind boggling 150 pounds on a full stomach & benched 190-195 lol.

By this time I had a back injury putting me out of football for the rest of the year & I couldn't touch a weight for 2-3 months. This just wreaked havoc on my body & mind & everybody was nice enough to compliment MAN YOUR GETTIN SKINNY WHAT HAPPENED. I went down to around 135 pounds.

I had a good friend that had tried steroids before & was strong as hell, probably the strongest in my grade. I finally talked him into getting me some deca from mexico & waited months until it finally came in. I didnt even start working out until my first shot (1cc/300mg's) & gained over 10 pounds by the end of the first week. I know it was probably just food but I was stoked as hell.

The weight just kept going up around 10 pounds a week & everybody was noticing it. Friends & family & girls all liked the new look but I started to get a s--ty attitude with it. I got more girls attention but at the same time they became more scared of me I think, which drove me into a pretty deep depression because everybody started slowly leaving my life. By the end of my cycle & beginning of my junior year I weighed about 180 & was vascular & cut as Id ever been in my life.

Even though I was happy as hell about my new look I was the loneliest person in the world it seemed everybody spread rumors around about me being a roider (which they were right :D) & I guess they thought I would rage or something. I did used to get a little mad on that first cycle but 3 cycles later Ive never gotten like that again. I guess it was from shutting down pretty hard from the deca & not have a post cycle recovery set up or any testosterone in the mix.

From this Ive gained respect & everybody knows who I am, alot more people are starting to open up to me now since I can keep my temper under control & Im trying to not go too crazy with my doseages even though I know Im way to young to be doing it in the first place. But Im just trying to live my life while I can & most things worth achieving involve risks. Im happy with what its done with my life & wouldnt change a second of it.

The only side effects Ive had is mild back acne, balls shrank post-cycle, & got a little gyno but cured it with a little nolvadex. I plan on continuing my use for awhile but will try to worry more about my diet & lifting smarter than how many cc's I put in the syringe.

Steroids aren't as evil as the media makes them out to be if you take them responsibly and know what the hell your doing. I plan on competing in bodybuilding shows soon & would like to continue to play football. "

Editor's note: We do not recommend or encourage anyone to use anabolic steroids. For the reasons listed below, it is extremely important the people under the age of 21 do not use steroids unless directed to do so under the care of a qualified medical doctor for specific medical conditions. Anabolic steroids can cause bones to stop growing prematurely. Teenagers who take anabolic steroids to get bigger may actually end up making themselves smaller for the rest of their lives. If a person who is not done growing yet takes steroids and experiences premature stoppage of bone growth, he or she will never grow as tall as he or she would have naturally grown if he or she had not used steroids. Now you know how they keep those gymnasts so short and muscular.

There have been cases where doctors have used small amounts of specific anabolic steroids administered in precise doses to increase height. However, the amount of a steroid that will increase height and not stop bone growth varies from individual to individual. Using steroids to increase height can only be done by a qualified doctor. All steroids, even when administered in small dosages, can prematurely stop bone growth in individuals who are not done growing.

Steroids can also alter the normal course of puberty. Steroid use is especially risky for teenagers. While the likelihood of teenagers developing possible side effects of steroid use like liver tumors is relatively low, as is the case for most steroid users, the likelihood of teenagers experiencing premature stoppage of bone growth and or changes to the normal course of pubertal development is high.
