Whether to take steroids or not

[Spideyhomie]

As I’ve grown up. I’ve looked at the problem of steroids through various angles.
I personally think that there are safe ways to inject steroids.
In short you walk away from that experience with anabolic effects (muscle) and not the androgenic effects (side effects).
I just need a push to start.
What have some of you experienced?

Im only 8 days in to my first cycle but il keep you posted. You can mitigate the side effects by doing daily injections instead of bi weekly, thats what Im doing

whilst i don't have any need to take test (cos I'm a girl) but i do take psychology and do a lot of studying on the topic.
The mind body connection is very very real and ur hormones have a very direct link to how u think and feel. Like in @snow's post, tren (steroids in general) can most definitely cause nightmares, bad mood, etc. How u inject it doesn't negate the very real side effects.
Whilst I can't tell u what to do I can say that u should definitely speak to a doctor.
If u have a history of mental health issues or ur family has a history of mental health issues, it would be a poor choice to mess w ur hormones as even if u urself haven't had issues yet, it may trigger a predisposition to a mental illness passed down from family

Do you plan to regularly get bloodwork done to see how it’s going?

comparing to tren and steroids in general in terms of mental effect is crazy misinformation, tren specifically has major mental effects cause it increases the size of the amygdala ad some research shows it can cause psychosis in some users, this would never happen with a normal dose of test

I don’t see what mental illness has to do with more free test in ur body.
Anxiety is understandable but triggering of mental illness🫩?

I was talking more about mood swings with test, bcs an fluctation/abnormalities w hormones can affect u negatively (mentally), i only mention steroids to cover all bases just in case they were thinking of maybe doing those too.
I think ik what im talking about considering i study it both in and outside of school and have done volunteer work for mental health services, just trying to be helpful and also talk about worst case scenarios

Tbh I have a history of mental health issues and drug abuse and I feel amazing on test. Daily injections actually reduces the side effects by a lot, stable levels = less mood swings, acne etc.

mood still varies a lot based on what type of steroid that is being used, dosing and how that individual reacts

*any, my apologies

Yeah 6 weeks in, I also bought a blood pressure monitor so I can check that every 3 days. About to check it rn actually

like I said, it effects everyone differently so there's not a sure fire way to know which is why they should speak to a doctor first

The doctor is gonna say he shouldn’t obviously

speaking to a doctor about test is the most stupid thing ever, most don't know anything about it, you can go to a men's health clinic that puts you on trt but they only care about money

I don’t think a healthy dosage of *testosterone* should have negative effects on mood.
To the contrary, it would make sense if the opposite happens. Men who naturally have more testosterone have a higher ‘drive’ in life.
One of the most common symptoms of low natural testosterone is easy tiredness

Also they’re only legally allowed to prescribe less than 300mg

The physiological pathway through which anxiety is caused during steroid abuse is somewhat well known. It wouldn’t make sense for *any* mental disorder to be triggered just by test

Making me wanna do test 🫩
