Steroid "guilt"

I met up with an old friend the other day. Now this is a pretty big guy I worked out with awhile back and he's also an admitted steroid user.

Anyway, we were talking about the manly practice of weightlifting and all that crap when he suddenly said something that surprised me. He told me that the reason he started using steroids was because of "guys like me".
When I told him to explain he said it always frustrated him that I seemed to gain muscle so much easier than him although because of my "superior genetics" while he busted his ass in the gym and saw little gain and that's when he decided that he needed an edge.

After laughing in his face for a minute or two, I reminded him that I also worked my ass off in the gym as well. In fact I got pretty annoyed by his accusation that I didn't have to work half as hard as him.
Also, this dude has a severe delusional image of himself. He was bigger than me before he started taking steroids and strong as hell. He has the perfect mesomorphic frame to build tons of muscle and ideal symmetry as well.
Of course now he's a monster, but I thought he actually looked better before he started juicing, but apparently he doesn't agree.

Anyway, that was about the time he asked me if I wanted to start a cycle and could hook me up with some top of the line shit.
I've always had mixed feelings about steroids in general.
On one hand, if used correctly they DO work and aren't half as dangerous as the media depicts it, although oral steroids cause more side effects than the injectable variety, most of the side effects can be minimalized or avoided if taken correctly, but that can be said with any other drug.


On the other hand, steroids is an extremely psychologically addictive drug. Makes sense... I'd imagine a long time steroid user quitting the juice would be like a SANE billionaire voluntarily giving up his fortune and living in a gutter somewhere.

It's also a very expensive "hobby" as well and I can think of other things to blow my money on... like some tasty hot flavored fried squid, not that I finally found a supplier! Yaaaaay!!

Still... I'm a pretty strong guy, but every now and then I wonder how much bigger and stronger I could be if I going to the "darkside".... eh... maybe not, but if I ever change my mind it's nice to see that I now have a hook up.

My head hurts. I think my brain is dying.
