Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are synthetic derivatives of the sex hormone testosterone. Anabolic refers to the "growth-promoting" effect while androgenic refers to the "masculinizing" effect. It is becoming more evident that nonathletes as well as athletes are abusing AAS. Although the abuse of alcohol and other drugs contribute significantly to current chemical use problems in American society, AAS abuse is one of the fastest growing "new drug" problems facing secondary and higher education institutes of learning. The purpose of this discussion is to present working hypotheses regarding the psychological treatment of AAS dependent individuals. The treatment approach presented incorporates the approaches used with eating disorders, substance abuse/dependence, and narcissistic personality disorders. This paper considers some of the preliminary considerations for the first phase of treatment, some pitfalls to avoid, and therapist characteristics, as well as treatment modalities that might be helpful in the treatment of AAS-dependent individuals.
合成代谢雄激素类固醇（AAS）是性激素睾酮的合成衍生物。合成代谢是指“促进生长”的作用，而雄激素是指“男性化”作用。越来越明显的是，非运动员以及运动员都在滥用AAS。尽管酒精和其他药物的滥用对美国社会当前的药物使用问题有很大影响，但AAS滥用是中小学和高等教育机构面临的增长最快的“新型药物”问题之一。本次讨论的目的是提出关于治疗AAS依赖个体的心理治疗的可行假设。所提出的治疗方法融合了用于饮食失调、药物滥用/依赖和自恋型人格障碍的方法。本文考虑了治疗第一阶段的一些初步注意事项、一些要避免的陷阱、治疗师的特点，以及可能有助于治疗AAS依赖个体的治疗方式。
