What is “Roid Rage”?



Basically when an anabolic steroid is taken it adds extra levels of testosterone to the body. The
hormones can have different effects on the body which can include:





Ø
These hormones can first produce a very positive
effect on a person’s psyche



Ø
This positive effect can later turn into a
negative one which can alter the way people act.



Ø
In the early stages of steroid use it may seem
that the steroids are making you feel great and very happy, however with
continued use these feelings can greatly change.





When buying steroids most people think about the positive effects but
do not consider the negative psyche effects that can occur.





With the continued use of steroids the below symptoms can begin to
occur





Ø
Aggressiveness



Ø
More
hostile



Ø
Anger.





These behaviors are referred to as “roid rage.” It’s a term given to
people that act very aggressive and hostile after taking doses of steroids,
usually on a consistent basis. There have been many studies performed related
to roid rage and these studies support the theory that people most likely to
get roid rage are those people who were already angry and hostile prior to
taking the drug. However, despite these studies steroids can have psychological
effects on any steroid user. So, if you’re thinking about taking steroids be
cautious as they could greatly affect your behavior.
