Utilisation de stéroïdes anabolisants chez des adolescents ayant une activité sportive

This study is systematically included in the psychiatric literature and confirms the most recent data from previous studies providing a valuable psychological profile of young people who use AAS. The teenager who uses AAS seems shy in interpersonal relationships, has a tendency to self-depreciation, is quarrelsome, all of which are in proportion to the frequency of use of these substances. Numerous studies support that AAS are psychostimulant substances and that they are used for this reason. Interestingly, many steroid users combine the use of these substances with other drugs. This suggests that consumers of AAS (especially those also taking other drugs) are pushed to consume it for its psychostimulant effects. It is often the effects on the muscles that maintain the addiction.
