Anabolic Steroids: The Good and The Bad
Anabolic Steroids are bad! Steroids will turn you into a
psychopathic monster! Your gonads will shrink! We've all heard these arguments
over and over, starting even from middle school and all the way through our
formal education. It's quite sad, actually, that the anti-drug sentiment has
been forced to rely on scare tactics rather than give individuals the
information they need to make an informed, intelligent decision with facts and
understanding. Relying on extreme cases and excessive fear mongering injures
the credibility of these sources, even when the information might honestly help
an individual.
Steroids, like everything else in this world, are neither pure evil nor pure good.
They are most certainly unsporting and should never be a part of a competing
athlete's regime. Teenagers, those whose bodies are still developing and those
who are most likely to suffer long term consequences from their use should
never be encouraged to use them. To cast anabolic steroids entirely in a dark
light, however, would be unfair and untrue for a variety of reasons.
Anabolic steroids are used in more medicines than most would care to admit.
They are used for helping individuals who suffer from muscular problems
including unexpected things like asthma. They also allow an individual to
achieve the body image they desire. Taken responsibly and with the medical
supervision any drug use should have, they can enable someone to meet their
personal fitness goals. Some individuals are not satisfied with the limitations
their genetics or natural hormone levels leave them with, and they deserve to
make the choice for themselves. The freedom of control over one's body is the
one freedom that should be protected at all costs. It should never be impeded
by false information.
There are too many misuses of anabolic steroids to list off. The worst is
likely football coaches who like to pressure their charges with taking the
newest and most undetectable iteration despite the harm unregulated use of the
chemicals can cause. That's unquestionably wrong, but the chemicals themselves
aren't. It is sad and disappointing that society has generated such a stigma
against them when used outside of sports or competition designed around
fairness.
