Some people develop a mental dependency to steroids and end up feeling like they need them, and if hard pressed would give up a lot of things in life before quitting them, which is THE definition of addiction…Not stopping even when the action you are doing is causing negative consequences that outweigh the benefits.
That might not be the textbook definition, I’m not about to look it up, but that’s a working definition that I learned in recovery. If you look at it like that, it really helps you see what things are unhealthy and can be an addiction, even video games etc.
All that being said steroids can not cause a PHYSICAL dependency, unless you consider low testosterone a withdrawl I guess you could justify that.
And how did you end up with a 205lb bench if this were true? Look, I’m not buying a lot of things you are claiming but I let them slide. However, commenting on things that you may not be familiar with can have detrimental effects to others who are reading and believe what you have written.
That was before I did heroin and lost a lot of size, like I said. However even at just under 230 my bench was still quite low, like 280 ish for reps.
This is because I Started using steroids at 170lb and 17% bodyfat with a bench under 100lb, and started with big amounts. I went up to 215 at about 17% bodyfat my first cycle, and while my strength did skyrocket and almost double, that still left my bench very weak.
A lot of stupid shit I did when I Was younger.
I don’t know why you would accuse somebody of lying about abusing steroids and regretting it… I used stupid amounts and didn’t get NEAR the benefits and results I should have. I was uneducated as were all the people I knew who were using them, had no idea about forums and stuff either, not that there’s the best drug advice on most forums lol.
Shadow pro on these forums has some great info though!
If you took the time to read my posts, you would see that abusing steroids I got upto just under 230, got into opiates and lost everything I built, and just started working out again from 180lb and 15%??ish?? bodyfat under a year ago
Again, none of these claims are impressive, not like I’m sitting here saying I was a shredded 230 with a 500lb bench and win contests, I was an average bf 230 who abused steroids and got shit results and damaged his test levels permanently, basically for no reason.
I’m talking about how much I regret it and how stupid it was, not how awesome it was, so I doubt i’m going to cause anyone to read this and think its a good idea, so I don’t know what your going on about “others reading this and thinking its a good idea” for, if someone reads my posts and thinks what ive done is something they should do after I clearly state how I regret it and it damaged me permanently, then that’s there problem.
I don’t know whats wrong with you, who the fuck makes that kinda shit up?
And believe me, using a lot of steroids DOES NOT guarantee good results if you have no idea what you are doing, I learned that the hard way. I got to the point I was doing cycles and my physique wasn’t changing, except for water fluctuations and small strength gains.
You can call me an idiot for doing that, but atleast I can admit it. There are lots of people who have had very stupid experiences with steroids, atleast I Can share mine so some other people can avoid similar mistakes!
Dude, you are claiming a past in organized crime, being on your own since 13 as both your parents were drug addicts, heroin abuse, jail and now steroid use while having amassed 100k in wealth from means that you are unwilling to disclose in your teens. All at the ripe old age of 22. Then you post your real name and even an address that was deleted by the mods. How am I going to take your words seriously?
Seriously, are you a 13 year old kid seeking attention? I am beginning to suspect this is the case.
That’s all true except the “amassed 100k in wealth thing”, I’ve already tried to explain that because of my past I get a lot of things paid for me but I Don’t really have access to money I can freely spend, I get what I ask for mostly though but try not to ask for petty shit. My rent will be paid along with a lot of other things up until a certain amount of money has been spent. I hope that explanation somewhat satisfies you, I didn’t really want to elaborate on it.
But yes, everything else in that is true, and I Don’t mind anybody knowing that including my name along with it. That’s all in the past, it’s over, I’ve done time for it, and while I am ashamed of it and regret it, it’s part of who I am. There’s no need for me to be secretive about it.
None of that stuff was said as if it were cool or anything.
Who would lie about being an ex addict whos done time with a shitty steroid past??
And if you think about it, all of those things do go together pretty well lol, most guys in organized crime in my area (lower mainland) are using steroids and the ones who don’t do to well usually don’t do to well cause they end up using heroin.
Anyways that part of my life is all over, it’s not who I am anymore so we can stop discussing it now. You’ve been bringing it up for what, 4, 5 days now?
Having a shitty personal life with parents etc, ending up using drugs, using steroids, and all that is very common for anyone in that kind of life style actually.
Let’s stop talking about this though its really not becoming in forums… I mean it’s one thing to mention heroin because someone asked why my 1m is lower now than it was 2 years ago, its another thing for you to then bring it up every day for the next week.
I’m not the one promoting the toxic conversation here.
