Help w/ Research on Former Steroid Users

Hi all,

I am a student at manchester met university in the UK, and I am looking for former steroid users to help me with my research.

The research is completely anonymous, you will not be able to be identified at all if you wish to help out.

I am looking for former users to complete a 5 minute questionnaire for me looking at motivations and issues surrounding steroid use and cessation.

If anyone would be interested please pm me.

I am really keen to get as many participants as I can and have further details available should you wish.

Thank you.
Becky Davies

Their have been posts made within this forum that outline both why people have used then and why people have chosen not to.

I think thats about the most help you will get on this topic.

i would be more than happy to fill the form out for you providing there are no stupid make believe health authority questions reguarding ‘roid rage’.

Alas, as i am not a ‘former’ user i will not be of any use to the survery.

It’s the opposite actually! We want to produce a piece of research from the users and ex users perspective. We recognised a massive gap in the literature - most of it as you know is based on over exaggerated symptoms such as “roid rage” and we hope to disspell some of those myths.

The reason why I want indiviual responses, rather than just getting info off this site, is that I am looking at some comparisons between former and ex users, plus my research wouldn’t be valid if I didn’t get my own participants!!

If you are a current user, you can still take part if you want to - I am just really short on former users.

Let me know if you still want to take part.

Becky

I will.

i live in Manchester too, wanna meet up Becky?

Joke JOKE!! :slight_smile:

I’ll take part though, i am currently using but have “quit” before if that counts… well, i stopped using anyway (no, not for the 10 weeks between cycles…)

That woud be fab thanks. Do you think you’d be able to fill it in at the time you had stopped using? I just want an idea of your experiences when you weren’t using, why you stopped etc.

If that’s ok with you, pm me your e-mail address and I’ll send you through the questionnaire.

Where abouts in manc are you?? :slight_smile:

I mainly do boxing, only the training tho. Also in to my weights - just feel like I see more improvements not drinking, and obviously following a strict diet. Although saturday is my cheat day - 1 day to go!!!

Yeah… when i dropped the booze, my body finally became like a true bodybuilders (a little one maybe…!)

All those years of training were held back by alcohol (partly) and i never knew just how restricting it was.

Is nobody impressed with my stalking, I got a picture of the girl within 2 minutes! :slight_smile:

She has posted in a steroid forum on facebook the same question, I saw it a few days ago and recognised it when she posted it here.
