So maybe she was going to leave him and she told him that and he snapped.

^^^ I dont think it says anything...Steroids do not make you snap and kill someone, much less your family. Roid Rage is a myth.

It is a myth...The people that ususally have anger problems and/or experience aggression from "Steroid use" usually already have temper/anger problems...Unless you have experience with them, I dont think you have any right to disagree.

"Roid rage" isn't a myth. The myth is that a "roid rage" lasts longer than a minute or two. The idea that Benoit had a 3 day roid rage is ridiculous. It's an angry, and most times violent, mood swing. It doesn't make people plot to go home and murder their family over a weekend.

Im not gonna start an argument over this or anything but it is a complete myth...Im an amatuer bodybuilder and have been researching steroids for years. (Not saying you are) But most people just listen to the media about just how "bad" steroids are when there is little to no experience just hearsay.

But I used to work out and I worked at a gym when I was in high school. Not to mention my best friend is a doctor with his Masters in Toxicology. I agree most people just listen to what they hear in the media. But "roid rages" aren't myths. I'm not saying that you'll definitely have one if you're on the juice, but I've seen them in my time. I agree with what you said in a way. People who have violent mood swings and anger problems are more prone to having a "roid rage". But they are real. My friend the doctor had them. He had one in class one day and threw his desk through a plywood wall. |

Well I guess you could say that things tend to aggrivate you a bit more while on. Im also about to head to medical school, im almost finishing my chem/bio major and have been bodybuilding for years and I just hate it when people jump the the worst possible conclusions about steroids with no knowledge whatsoever...It really depends on the person and what type of mental state they are in, in a way...And those people have no reason to be on steroids, as most dont anyways. From my experience, "roid rage" is less than minimal..

Thanks, and you actually made a knowledgable point and didnt just make up some ignorant/unfounded point..... I just find it funny how people so uneducated about the topic just love to get their view across.

I think we know that Benoit was a troubled man. I dont think it was just the steroids alone that cause him to snap. It was all the things (stress, problems at home, steroids abuse, struggling with work load in wwe etc) added together that pushed him over the edge.

Actually, I have friends who have taken steroids who will tell you completely the opposite. Steroids don't MAKE YOU do anything. I'm not going to chalk up Chris Benoit KILLING his wife and son to 'roid rage'. You're right in that roid rage doesn't make you kill people... What I've been told from people who have used them is that it makes you more easily upset by things that you wouldn't otherwise think of as a big deal. |

Thanks, and you actually made a knowledgable point and didnt just make up some ignorant/unfounded point..... I just find it funny how people so uneducated about the topic just love to get their view across. The other thing to consider is that any drug (not just steroids) that alters a person's hormonal levels inherently carries some risk of sparking a drastic mood swing (could be anger, depression, hyperactivity, or any number of behavioral changes that have to do with a person's mood). Hormones have a lot to do with a person's demeanor, so it's easy to understand why any drug that alters the hormones could cause fits of anger or other abnormal mood swings. It's not just steroids -- many drugs are notorious for mood-related side affects -- but steroids do change a person's body chemistry, and that means "'roid rage" is clearly possible with some users. |

I find them hard to believe that they are real texts, to be quite honest. The way she wrote 'I will not accept this steroid induced roller coaster ride of emotional abuse' sounds like the most blatent Newspaper tag, which trys to sum up that he's definately used steroids and definately harmed his wife, and killed her. I can't imagine her ever texting that.
