Changes in personality
Most of these studies have been done retrospectively and so there is always a certain degree of bias based on memory lapses. In any cases, most individuals indicate that after they took anabolic steroids, they noticed a change in their personality. This change was also observed by family and friends.
There is some work that reveals that body builders who do take anabolic steroids develop a personality disorder with negative attributes.
Over time family members have claimed that these individuals became paranoid, schizoid, anti social, borderline, narcissistic and histrionic. Of these personalities, the most dominant change has been the evolution of anti social and borderline personality.
