Knowing the effects steroids if you had to take them to keep your job and support your family would you take them?

No, I would not take steroids, unless I had a medical condition that forced me to take them. They are harmful and can cause a lot of damage to your body. What sort of job would require you to take steroids? I can't think of anything other than athletes.

I don't know of any reason that I'd need them to keep my job, but if the reason were a good enough one and was legal, maybe, but I doubt it. I can't think of a good enough reason to take them.

no I wouldn't take them but unfortunately some people do take them for illnesses, people with lupus are giving prednizone which is a steroid, and growth hormones as you know already are steriods and children who are not growing properly may have to have them.

Probably not, I would probably try and change jobs or switch carreers first. I would do eveything I could to avoid taking them, but if trying to find a new job or changing carreers proved to be futile, and my family was suffering, I would probably take them to keep a roof over my head. But it would have to be a really, really, really dismal situation for me to resort to that.

Howdy Lady! Good topic. I was on steroids for a whole month back in 2006 and all it did was cut up my abs. I looked pretty fierce. So to answer your question, I'd take steroids again if needed. Happy mylotting!
