It’s BLUFF! Researchers found that the use of performance-enhancing drugs (like steroids or creatine) was associated with more drug and alcohol use.

Further, I suspect that those using steroids are generally morerisk-seeking than those who don't. And then there are just all the behavioral effects of steroids that also lower threshold once a person is using steroids.
