BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to investigate the social background and current social situation of male abusers of anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS).
METHODS
We compared thirty-four AAS-abusing patients from an Addiction Centre (AC) with two groups, 18 users and 259 non-users of AAS from a public gym in Orebro, Sweden. The study is based on semi-structured interviews and questionnaires.
RESULTS
Histories of a troubled childhood as well as current social disadvantage were both more frequent among the AAS users. Users also reported poor relationships with their parents and almost half of them had experienced physical or mental abuse. The AC group's experiences from school were mostly negative, and included concentration problems, boredom and learning difficulties. Their current circumstance included abuse of other drugs, battering of spouses and other criminality such as assault, illegal possession of weapons and theft.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, this study shows that abusers of AAS often have a troubled social background. This underlines the importance of making a thorough social assessment as a part of the treatment programme. The results of the study may help in directing appropriate questions relevant to the abuse of AAS.
背景
本研究旨在探讨男性合成代谢雄激素类固醇（AAS）滥用者的社会背景和当前社会状况。
方法
我们将来自一个成瘾中心（AC）的 34 名 AAS 滥用患者与瑞典厄勒布鲁市一个公共健身房的 18 名 AAS 用户和 259 名非用户进行了比较。该研究基于半结构化访谈和问卷调查。
结果
有问题的童年经历和当前的社会劣势在 AAS 用户中更为常见。使用者还报告说与父母关系不好，其中近一半人曾遭受过身体或精神虐待。AC 组在学校的经历大多是负面的，包括注意力集中问题、无聊和学习困难。他们目前的情况包括滥用其他药物、殴打配偶和其他犯罪行为，如袭击、非法持有武器和盗窃。
结论
总之，本研究表明，AAS 滥用者通常有一个问题重重的社会背景。这强调了作为治疗计划一部分进行全面社会评估的重要性。该研究的结果可能有助于指导与 AAS 滥用相关的适当问题。
