| These are some of the physical side effects associated
with steroid use. As you can see these drugs can affect the
body in a very negative way, however steroids can be used
safely if followed by all dosage instructions. Despite all of these proven
side effects people are still taking steroids. These side
effects may not appear in all users at first. It is likely
though with the long term usage of higher dosages that one or more
of these side effects will occur in the user. These can be
minor changes in the body and they can be extreme changes.
It all depends on the dosage and duration of the usage.
These are very good examples of why not to take extreme
dosages.
Doctors are still discovering new side effects today, and
there are still a lot of unknown problems with the newer
more advanced steroids that will turn up. The trouble is
people are taking steroids to look better and get stronger,
faster, and quicker with no effort and thus take too much at
once. What they are actually
getting is a body that is like a time bomb waiting to
explode. These drugs may help you look good for a short
period of time, but they are also destroying the users body.
For a beginner, we strongly advise to read books such as
Layman's Guides to get first-hand information on how to use
steroids safely.

themselves and others. Users of steroids have been known to
pick fights for no reason and attack people. With the roid rages, changes in moods, depression,

kill themselves, and people around them with extreme dosages
and prolonged periods of usage. There have been
many cases of suicide and homicide related to the use of
