Are Steroids Worth It?
|

|
Two Austrian physiologists studying testicular extracts of a bull in 1894 tested the extracts by injecting samples into themselves. They measured the strength of their fingers before and after the injection with a Mosso ergograph. When the results came back showing a significant increase in strength, the idea of steroid/prohormone use for performance was born (Hoberman 147). The only bad things about these steroids were their negative side effects. The most prominent negative effects are: severe depression, shortened temper, public shame and damage to internal organs. One negative effect of steroid use is severe depression. Depression often is seen when the drugs are stopped and may contribute to dependence on anabolic steroids (Nardo 23). It can be imagined the drop in self-confidence when one goes from a strong, muscle building machine, to a totally different feeling of diminished strength and appearance. “They (steroid users) can go from feeling happy to feeling angry or depressed in only a few seconds” (Nardo 23).
