    Long story short, I have to shoot steriod nasal spray up my nose twice a day and have been for about a month.

    People I talk to say that this kind of steriod is NOT the same as performance enhancing steriods. However, I am having the same typical reaction to them. Breaking out, irritiable, even what seems like 'riod' rage moments.

    Can these steriods have that effect or should I just see a shrink.

    millions and millions of people use those nasal steroids on a daily basis and don't react that way. Maybe you're irritability has nothing to do with the steroids. And no, nasal steroids are not like the kind athletes use to boost performance.

    K Could be the mix of the allergy meds making me tired and grouchy.

    I need to take one Zyrtec/day. Since it makes me drowsy I take it an hour or two before I go to bed. I still wake up groggy and the rest of the day seems to drag.

    I was told that the steriod could make you 'jumpy' . He might have been talking about the initial shot I was given.

    No, sounds nothing at all like anabolic steroids. You may just be having an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients.
