People asking if you juice ?
I mean why stress? When i go on cycle, id be bloody insulted if i didnt get a large enough growth in size that people commented. Obviously im not going to wear a shirt saying "Yeah im on f*cking roids" but im not gonna get all bashful when my mates or random people ask.
I realise there is a negative perception about roids, but seriously why not go on a positive PR parade? Id rather be improving my body, as opposed to going to a club and taking E and other crap. Obviously a bit of discresion is required when kids come up and ask, but im sure most of us can use common sense......

Well, some of us have real jobs and we want to keep them. I work at a drug rehab facility in the nutrition field. I have to do everything possible to hide my size when I'm on cycle. The topic of steroids comes up quite often whenever I start to get swole and it's really not easy explaining how you gained 25lbs over the past two months.
We actually get guys in here who have come to get over gear addictions (which is a whole other topic entirely). It's a fragile situation and I'm not going to lose a cushy job so that I can be the poster boy for gear.

Some of us have real jobs?? Really get over yourself, just state why you hink its a bad idea. Im specifically talking about in the gym. Sure im not advocating going on TV and billboards. However its ultimately up to BBer to give off the positive side of working out and supplementing safely and healthily.

Sometimes I feel like making a t-shirt online that says "Yeah I'm on fukcing roids!!!"
It's not so easy though... my weight's bounced around quite a bit and I've been getting that question a lot. My parents FINALLY caught on that somethings fishy (despite a 20lb jump I had in winter).
If it's someone in the gym that's trusted, like another tight-lipped AAS user, I will talk about it and share advice. But if it's a lay person who has no concept on what a steroid is, aside from propagated "facts" like bitch tits, testicular atrophy and the most infamous roid rage garbage, they do not need to know. And beside, SIII drugs aren't something I want to go blabbing about IRL. I'm not even gonna tell my next gf or anything. It's too much of a hassle and no one really understands.
I wish I lived in the UK like sikboy... hell, I wish I lived somewhere NEAR sikboy so I could indulge without concern and train like a big bastard.

Okay on reflection you States guys do have valid felony issues. Down in deep dark africa, there are no laws with regard to roids. According to the police down here, they only have a problem if you are caught dealing. No issues going through borders etc, so thats why im a bit more open about roids.
Yes booby, really mature going on about the world wont change kid speel. Ultimately its up to you guys to prove that these drugs are safe etc, then move it from the schedule 3 grading? Why not?

When asked outside of my community of people who are already "in the know" ... I lie, and always will.
If in a gym and asked, I will say whats that, and then go on a 5 second stint about the latest advances in Creatine Ethyl Ester's, NO products, My favorite protein sup, whatever... then put my headphones back on with the look on my face that says "get out of my FREAKIN way".

Gotta love creatine man  Gained some nice weight on it when i first started gyming. I see what most of you guys are saying, keep it in the family as it were. Just wish the media would blow up every story on roids.

Exactly! And why should you be annoyed that people noticed you got massive? No reason at all really in the gym enviroment, it just means youve researched your shiat properly, eaten better and trained harder.

If i know the person that comes up to ask me, yea i'll be honest and tell them i do. More then likely the always asking about info on certain things. They admit they have taken them and then ask me about different things. If it were a 150-185lbs kid asking me about it i would just chuckle and continue lifting.
In my opinion stop being pussies and just admit it. Be open about it. Ive been open about it and look im still here aren't i? i haven't been arrested and charged with a felony. Alot of legal issues come into play when the person starts to DISTRIBUTE steroids. If you keep a small personal amount at your house the cops aren't going to care NOR have the suspicion to get a search warrant. To much BS over such a small amount

exactly my thoughts...i dont tell many ppl, just for the fact that the ignorance over here in the US is unbelievable..."you're gonna die from roids" or "i dont want bitch tits, so i'll never use them"...everyone knows the "bad" effects of roids, and how they are "cheating", no one wants to take the time and learn about them. If someone seems like they have a good understanding, then i dont mind talking a little bit about it, but most of the time i just ignore ppl.

People are just ignorant about steroids in North America, most people think that if you take them your a cheater who doesnt train hard, doesnt eat right, and doesn't sleep 8 hours a night, and its simply frustating to hear people say that. And for crying out loud it took long enough to get it through my gf head that steroids are same if used with care.
For some reason it seems like steroids get alot for blame then for say cocaine and even cigarets yet AAS are less dangerous then either of these.

Don't be a fool. They're illegal since 1990. You are taking a serious risk for exposure. If you are blowing up nd chat it up with the wrong guy you could end up at the wrong end of a local, state or Fed investigation. Even a personal supply can get you into some trouble. You may get your arm twisted to give up your source. Your employer may get informed. You could do jail time or, at minimum, end up with thousands in attorney costs. For what?

well first, they can't get your source even if you tell them, its almost ALWAYS off shore related and US Government can't do **** but put pressure on them. And even if they do that all the government can try to do is make it harder to import raw material. But guess what they did that with china and its STILL coming through.
Secondly, a first time charge for getting busted with a personal supply (1-5 vials) of AAS isn't jail time. More like probation and/or fine. Neither should be wanted lol. but its better then jail time. Unless you are packing some 120ml vials  lol
Your employer gets informed, ok whats the big deal. As long as it doesn't affect your work performance they can't just fire you. I know, I know they can make up a bull**** reason.

Most of my family knows im on and that's fine cause it's blood, BUT telling other people aside from close friends(friends that are family)is just stupid IMHO.
If people want to speculate and show ignorance towards me about juicing with no real first hand facts that's fine cause they look like ignorant fools, BUT if you tell them then they going to be even more ignorant cause they know the truth and would more then likely spread more bull-**** out of gelousy and misinformation.
I would rather walk around my gym naked then tell people im on aas, not cause im scared or a "PUSSY" it's just no one elses fukin buisness simple as that.

Yeah....then by the time you're semi-well known, you need to go on HRT and pay for everything...because you can't risk being on the black market anymore....
Then again, I'm old...and I like the security of doing things legally.

Next time some one asks if your on roids just ask them what their wife/girlfriends favorite position is, I'm sure they'll get the picture.
