I was a lucky person who did steroids for a few years straight and never had any side effects other than a LITTLE body acne. I've seen other people who abuse them have body parts swell up that shouldn't have (like their foreheads).

I don't agree with them being illegal but I COMPLETELY understand why they are having been around them for so long. They are NOT something to mess with or abuse, but taken responsibly are great.
