I thought I would post my story about my first introduction to the AAS world, hopefully if a young person reads this and saves themselves from a whole shit load of trouble then purpose served. Here it goes it's one hell of a story.

First rewind the clock 15 years ago when I was just 20 years old, been training with my buddy Jimmy (not real name) he was a year younger than I was, anycase we have been banging iron for about a year now and were getting serious about it, reading all the mags, taking all the supplements etc etc.

We see this guy at the gym we train at and he is huge, looks really good and we are like WOW we want to look like him. So we start looking into juice, I had happen to have another buddy that I knew was into the juice and he says he can hook us up. Jimmy and I give this guy Ryan (not real name) $200 cash to get us some gear, now that should have been enough for a couple of vials of test but NO. So Brad comes back with this other stuff that he calls an injectable protein supplement that will make us huge. I recall the name as HEMO 15, he tells inject this much of this stuff every few days and you will get huge.

So we are like sweet, Ryan shows how to do it gets all the equipment we need for it and off we go. So were pinning this crap into each other in the friggin gym bathroom stall, idiots I know. So several weeks go by with us doing this stuff, and it comes time for me to leave for school. I have to stop taking the gear but will resume when I get back from school, I left the Hemo 15 with my buddy Jimmy who continues to use this gear.

Several weeks go by and I come back home for the weekend, I meet up with Jimmy and we are going to party hard this weekend. I plan to stay over at his place so we can hit the local parties and get waisted, everything goes fine that night and I pass out at Jimmy's house. Wake up the next morning to find no Jimmy anywhere to be found, I search the house which is very large and I run into his mother.

So Jimmy's mom tells me that he has been taken to the hospital due to this crazy breakout of hives all over his body and he couldn't breathe and almost died on the way to hospital. His mom then proceeds to tell me that Jimmy told them everything and that I had better come clean on what was going on, at this point I am shitting my pants and I totally deny knowing anything about Jimmy taking anything.

I get grilled some more by his mom about stuff and I totally play dumb, a few hours goes by and his dad comes home with no Jimmy. Now I am like totally fucked, stuck in these peoples home who think I have been giving their perfect son this weird shit that almost killed him. After another hour of grilling his parents finally let me go, I friggin ran out the front door and just walked to the closest pay phone where I called my mom for a ride home.

After this Jimmy no longer trained at the gym, his parents wouldn't let him contact me it was totally fucked up. The guy who gave us the gear just basically told him what are you going to about it? This whole ordeal made me rethink what I was doing putting weird shit into my body, it turned out that Ryan stole the Hemo 15 from the vets supply cabinet while he had his dog there for something, and then sold it to us for $200 cash.

Man we were so stupid for doing shit like that, but yet I read all over different forums where young kids are doing exactly what I did. Poor Jimmy found out the hard way and almost died as a result, he ignored the symptoms till it was too late.
