The response to Test isn’t linear. Many of the effects are threshold and proportion based. I think you would have got a stronger mental reaction if you also took aromatase inhibitors to keep the E2 down. But yeah as you mention you’re likely an outlier.

I don’t think anyone is claiming steroids makes everyone aggravated.

Plus there are different types of steroids with Tren being more strongly linked to aggression.

I took, at various points, Tren, Deca, Mast, Anavar, Primobolan, Equipoise, Trestolone, Superdrol, Dianabol, Anadrol, Winstrol, Epistane, Halotestin, Methyltrienolone, Methylstenbolone, and an alphabet soup of various other prohormones, peptides, as well as insulin and HGH.

I treated my body like a walking science lab during my teen years.

I took AI (if you would have looked at my bloodwork, you would have seen that at 7,500 ng/dL Test my E2 was crushed below the normal reference range, I actually had LOW estradiol) but it caused more issues than it was worth.

People on the internet largely don't know what they're talking about when it comes to anabolic steroids, I discovered that the hard way.

That’s quite an outlier. I didn’t read your tests but I did wonder why you let E2 get that high in your msg.

My working theory is the mechanism is similar to alcohol with a lowering of inhibition. The aggregation has to be in you from the start.

Some bodybuilders advocate not lowering e unless your boobs start to grow ;) better on the mood, joints, skin etc.
