**Don't know... I keep getting a fast busy signal.
You are calling the wrong number....
bigwillywhats up gang. a fella and I wer talking the other day, hes on pain pills. he has a real problem and really dose need to take them. out talk was about do the pain pills stop his ability to make gains. any input on this one ?
Well, there is one way I know forsure tjey will stop gains atleast for me. I literally wouldn't not eat when I was using. Probably 1000 cals a day max and that's why I weighed 130lbs at 6ft tall. So without the necessary calories no gains will be made.
Now if he's talking them as prescribed and not abusing them and lives a normal stable life then no I don't think they will hinder gains much at all.
bigwillyHe claims his doctor has told him exactly what you just wrote lol
lol i unfortantely have a long past and alot of experience with opiates despite my age. But its in the past now.
Opiates cause an fluctuation of estrogen so keep that in mind
5 years sober, no alcohol, feels good!
Congrats, bro. Stay straight.
Thanks, bro!
PhishphanToday is my 2years being of opiates!! Im so happy and feel amazing.thanks to all the friends on here that has supported me thru it all.this by far is the best group of people to help me to climb up from the gutter
Grats for you, too.
6 years recently
bigwilly13 years in may. FR on the way bro.
Gratulation, stay straight bro.
Congrats noid.... Takes a lot more balls to stay clean than it does to pick up and use! Also we now have the opportunity to prove.... The Lie Is Dead.... We do recover! Thanks!
We appreciate your commitment to your sobriety. Celebrated 7 whole ones back in July, the wife celebrated 6.
Hey bros. Nice to see theres a group like this here. I think its a good idea. I took drugs for many years, espacially heroin and cocain. I am clean since over ten years. So i know, how hard it is to stay straight. Fascinating how many ex users are taking anabolics and switched from drugs to sports. I think its not the best way for our life to replace the drugs with anabolics, but its much better than dying in a crackhouse. Stay straight guys.
I am also on subs...want to ween off soon tho cause I feel just as sick as coming off heroin when I come off subs..so I gotta ween slowly or I won't make it to the gym for a few weeks.
Tendernips23im on suboxone too!!!!! ive been off meth and heroin for 2 and a half years now. Honestly it doesn't surprise me that roiders are often addicts/ ex addicts I mean we are the ones crazy enough to inject some shit and hope it goes well. normies just arnt that crazy.
the gym saved my life 4 sure im super addictive person so if i dont have dumbbells then i have a needle in my arm 10 yrs back and forth between the 2 but now ive got 2 years off the shit good luck to u all
Celebrating 6 years today~!
Benny BlancoCongratulations, AUTO!
Anontheres absolutely no sight of me getting back together with my girl but i need to do what is right and drop the gear and leave eroids and try to show her that i mean it because actions speak louder then words i appreciate all the help especially from your suggestion noid
Looks like he made a descision
Shouldn't have told her in the first place. Handing a woman ammo that can b used against u is like giving a 2 year old a hand gun, it never turns out well. Good luck winning her back.
Benny BlancoI don't believe in hiding stuff from the old lady, well, at least if you're married which he is not. But most opposition to steroid use is due to ignorance. People act like it's crack for fuck's sake.
I could never agree more. Hiding something is not being honest. If you have to hide it from your wife you shouldn't be doing it no matter what the situation is. When you got married you formed a partnership and 100% honesty is the only way its gonna work. Just because we know steroids is not the devil doesn't mean she doesn't believe that. Its gonna cause serious problems later. No matter if its wrong or right. What happens is you hide one thing and get away with it for awhile then you hide something else. The whole time its wrong but you think its OK and you deserve it. The Snowball effect happens and before you know it you are lying about all kinds of shit and your life turns into shit because you living a lie. Trust me homeboy. Its a dead in road. Tell her...if she can't deal with you doing roids then you don't get to do it because you made the decision to be her partner first. This is coming from a hard lesson learned. Not just cause I think its right...take this advice an soak it up like a sponge.
When it comes to life and liberty its best to not take chances. Being completely honest is fine until u cross the line into the illegal. There's an old mafia saying, two ppl can keep a secret if one of them is dead. Lifting is what keeps me sober and aas is what keeps it fresh. Who knows if that guy will continue lifting and maybe he relapses because of it. I c some hotties and at meetings but I'd never date 1. Reg women have issues, addicts have scary ones.
Benny BlancoLol, the mafia. I'd like to see the Feds knock this guy's door down for his casual steroid use. And if you're suggesting one should hide the stuff from their spouse, you're wrong, or you have the wrong spouse.
I've had bad stuff happen and I did have the wrong 1. Only 1 I'll ever trust about n e thing illegal is me, myself and I. The 12 step programs r great but a lot of the ppl can b childish. That guy and his chick were both in the program. If she's working a program, she told her sponsor and who knows who her sponsor told. Everyone tries to learn everyones business. I do suggest one should hide n e thing that could put their ass behind bars from their spouse everything else shouldn't b hidden. What possible benifit could there b to telling your chick ur doing something illegal? There is no upside to that, its all possible downside. There was a crazy bitch that was putting antifreeze in her husbands roid vials.
Benny BlancoI remember that forum. That's messed up. I personally don't believe in marriage without 100% trust. I know not everyone can attain that. To answer your question, well I suppose I don't wish to speak on that in public. It depends on the situation though. I'd say like a Bonnie and Clyde thing though. Really with the shit. And my wife is a "normie" so I got lucky. Program chicks can be a lot of fun, but fuck, they can bring a ton of baggage.
Tronhttp://www.eroids.com/pics/before-and-after-the-comeback
This is a post from about a year ago of how eroids changed my life.. I look at these pics now and I am astonished at how much I changed by getting off the prescription pills and am still off to this day.
AnonSo the love of my life left me because she doesn't agree with my use of steroids she's in the program as well but doesn't view it as a relapse. But struggling tonight and struggling with if I get another chances (this would be a fourth one) if Id be willing to stop gear. I love this girl and ones like her are rare never been so happy with anyone. Feeling very lost and other then my small support group and sponsor I can't really talk about this in my area.
this is a no brainer, if shes worth it drop the gear, leave eroids and build your life together! what are you waiting for?
AnonNoid can you delete my account I'm taking g your suggestion
Good luck bro. Hope all works out!
AnonNoir I really appreciate that man I'm gonna fight for this one if I get her back you won't see me again. Thanks man
Give them a vote if you find it helpful.PermalinkGuys ive been straight for 3 years and had a recent relapse and became physically dependant on subutex. Oh its killing me going cold turkey. But im doing this shit. I havnt trained properly for over a month but now dealing with a detox that sucks. Oh how I wish I could push a button and get past these wds.
So glad to find this thread~! 12-Steps & NA keep me clean. I still claim my clean date even though i take test & other roids. I have trouble keeping to one shot per week sometimes. I just took a break from like 05/28-07/20, did pct, lost 10 pounds. I was trying to go 60 days, but just decided i'm going to gay games 9, August 3, so of course vanity shows up, I wanna be strong & look strong. Coming off sux, but not as bad as it sucked getting off alcohol, meth, or pot. Have i transferred addictions again? Am I kidding myself?
It's good that your self aware but no and no to the questions at the bottom of your post. I think you maybe over thinking things. Relax bro, I don't even recognise my previous self, it's almost like it happened to somebody else.
Gear and drugs/alcohol don't even compare in my book.
There's lots of ex addicts on here, including myself. For me having access to gear and the desire to train has 100% saved my ass! It could be argued that I've transferred my addiction, but bare in mind we don't get a narcotic effect off gear. It would never satisfy the inner fiend in me when I previously wanted to get fucked up.
I own a couple houses and one of them right now is vacant, my mom still gets loaded, she came by a few days ago high as shit talking about she just got a new job this morning, and needs a place to stay. wants to know if ill rent her one of my houses. Temporarily mind you!....I said Mom you been looking for a temporary place to stay since i was 5, you dont stay anywhere temporarily, you just leave after the eviction. I says I got your number ill call you later when your not high. she says well I got to put money on it and Im afraid to drive my car through town because it overheats. (the at&t store is 5 minutes away)...I just shook my head and told her to go to a meeting, I cant help you until you help yourself.....This disease is no joke, I dont even talk to her but maybe once a year and she comes asking me to enable her. crazy shit.
Bout to have 2 years. Was hard getting clean with both my parents being supportive but nonenabling. Couldn't imagine how hard it would b to get clean if my parents actively used. Disease took one of the greatest guys I ever met and the one who really got me into lifting a few months back. U did the right thing and must b working a good program. Keep it up.
Are you my brother?
My mom is and always has been a prescription drug abuser and alcoholic. She got clean for about 10 years when I was young, got her masters degree and a good job. But it was short lived. I'm the only one of my siblings who speaks to her, and I only do it because I feel I owe it to her for not aborting me. Seriously that's the only thing the woman has ever done for me.
TARANISThats rough bro,especially someone that close to you,You know as well as i do you have to hit that gutter but at your moms age i have no comment on that matter.
i feel for you bro, must be hard but you must bite the lip and also be hard,iv'e died inside so many times,
35 years of struggle,but bro i have no magical advice for you as its just me thats struggled not any of the closest of the close,
i wish you all the best and success for you and your family and pray you beat these fuckin demons
TARANIS
I commend you bro as its sometimes not easy to talk about this stuff especially close family members
your a credit to all on this page
that shits rough but you did the right thing. Sorry to hear things like this but addiction is a killer. Getting help is key, but you have to want it!
AnonIm a methamphetamine addict.was straight and doing very well, fell off the wagon recently..just needed another taste..well that was now 3 months ago continous bender and day 1 starts now..not looking forward to the next few weeks..but have promised myself to get clean for the sake of the kids..fkn terrible drug with no help from any doctor in my country in sight.
Cold turkey it is..not looking forward to being withdrawn thats coming in a few days time..I know cardio work and a simple test e cycle makes a world of difference-well it did for me last time.just need to get past the next few weeks and of coarse my dealer who is very close by in my life and ive got a exit.
Good Luck Brother! Just remember you can't do this alone and you don't have to be alone. Get yourself to a meeting and keep going till you get it. Keep us updated and please PM me if you need someone to talk to.
I'm an alcoholic, i am powerless over alcohol, and sober through the grace of God. Today I am celebrating my 8th anniversary. I have enjoyed the support of the eroids community for a couple of years now and i wish to thank all of you for helping me on my journey. Thank You Peace mk
