If you are careful, do your research and learn about the different kind of steroids, doses, and proper use, they are surprisingly safe.
There are thousands of steroid users in America, its very rare that one of them dies in a given year.

Yes it can. I have been on a short-term course of steroids twice to stop migraines and it feels terrible. It puts a lot of strain on your heart, and while you are taking them it is impossible to relax and very difficult to sleep. I did gain weight while I took them, as I felt hungry all the time because my metabolism was so high. When I finished with them, I was exhausted for a week. It's not worth it. If you really need to gain weight, I suggest adding more meats (protein) to your diet, and doing weight training exercise to build up muscle.

Yes, from what I've heard and seen about them on tv, people usually don't stop there. They easily get addicted, and it's constantly, "just one more cycle." But it never ends. Go to a gym and have someone properly train you and give you advice on diet instead.

I was given steroids to heal a wound when it didn't heal I was given more! There's also tolerance to steroids, after you take em 1ce they never work the same again!

better question is who says youre "way too skinny?" For who...you? your sig other? other people? One cycle prob wouldnt hurt you, but wouldnt do you that much in the way of bulking up either.

It probally isn't that bad, but I don't see it doing anything for you either. I believe they are the type of thing that you need to take for a while before seeing a change...that's when it's bad for you.
