What is Steroids addiction?

Although steroids are not as big a problem as some other illicit drugs, there are still a lot of people who are addicted to steroids. In 2004, the statistics said that 0.6 percent of Canadians had used anabolic steroids. It is actually illegal to traffic or produce steroids in Canada; also it is a substance that is in the 

Schedule IV

 of the Canadian Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. Canada has been having problems with steroids, the problems are scattered all over Canada.

Just a few years ago, in Fredericton, New Brunswick, a drug bust happened involving anabolic steroids. The steroids were being sold in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and also Ontario. And there was a man that was said to have bought for over 600,000 dollars of steroids, and that is the very proof that he was really struggling with steroids addiction. In 2002, in the Quebec province, principally in Montreal and Quebec City, they made a study on athletes and found that almost one percent of them had developed a steroids addiction. And 70 percent of those who were using steroids were under seventeen years old, which means that steroids addiction starts at a younger age.

Steroids addiction is very common with people who start using these drugs. A lot of person start using steroids only to build muscles, but it can often escalate to a full on steroids addiction. Once a person gets addicted to steroids, there are different symptoms that come in. The people struggling with steroids addiction will show anxiety, exhilaration, depression and various mood swings. It is very dangerous for the person’s health as the steroids affect not only the muscles but also different organs. The addiction to steroids can eventually become fatal.
