How does taking steroids for the gym affect his ability to work and what's it got to do with his workmates? Yikes, people might want to terminate the employment of folk who like beer (or 6) next!

I've used the gym all my life and now at 55 I like to tell my workmates that I am taking my "roids" but am actually popping a vitamin tablet.^_^

Altered mood, irritability, aggressive behaviour...... Plus other things. Not ideal at work

If you do the proper research and are aware of the side effects and are able to control them - I cannot see an issue with them being employed etc. I think its a pretty sweeping statement to suggest all steroid takers should be unemployed :blink: I have two friends who use steroids and I do not notice a real difference in their behaviour etc, obviously the benefits are visible - but then I am not with them 24 hours a day.

I work in a gym, and I know lots of people in fitness....I cannot stand pure ignorance of some people with using these substances :dry:

The 'benefits' aren't visible, because they're hidden under a puffy layer of cellular water retention. Fat necks, poor definition, lacklustre skin. To a clean lifter they look grotesque. Been body building, then powerlifting 32 years, hung round more gyms than I care to remember, and the juicers are obvious, every single one of them.

And the best bit - I was bigger than most of them. 50 next birthday and still got 18" pipes and a 53" chest. Try maintaining that with the juice, it'd kill you at my age.

POMS?

Prescription only medicines. They're unduly dangerous, hence being controlled drugs. Drugs probpven to be clinically reasonably safe if used properly are sold without prescription, e.g., paracetamol, antihistamines etc. There's a reason you can't buy a bottle of Dianabol with your aspirin.

I was working in Johannesburg when Oscar Pistorius shot his girlfriend. Most of my customers there are Afrikaaners and most knew OP or knew of him. He already had a reputation for being fond of guns and everybody just shook their heads and said it was inevitable - "'royd rage".

A lot of people have to rely on them for a some where near normal life so not all users are the same
Are you confusing anabolic with glucocorticoid steroids as @User13710 says? I’ve taken the latter but not the former

Or testosterone supplementation? Which I’ve certsinly never had!

Or he was just a murderous psychopath bastard?
