If you just want to talk about how you feel on something- only you can answer that while on it though it may be similar to how others feel.
However from a health standpoint:
Just be aware of the negative effects of aging and gear combined:
After 40 especially, our veins and arteries loose elasticity.
Now combine that with the negative sides of AAS along with how they combine together.
Sure you can combat cholesterol and water retention and perhaps BP with BP meds also. But still you have your red blood cell count going up= thicker blood.
So if you are aware of all the sides and how they combine and what this could cause for you health wise- you can make a wise or foolish choice and justify it however you want.
But if you have less elasticity, higher BP, higher cholesterol and thicker blood: that is a recipe for cardiac disaster. Aside from what that causes on the heart itself- it is every cause basically for arterial plaque. If you have less elasticity narrowing veins and arteries via plaque which is caused by cholesterol creating and sticking to scar tissue in the walls....??
So if you decide to do it- I only hope for your sake that you combat all the sides you can.
Also exercising and eating right is on your side but I personally know 3 guys that looked pretty awesome, trained and ate right and had major cardiac events. 1 heart attack(he was actually young), 1 heart attack and death- he was a board owner/vet in his 40's, and 1 heart attack and strokes during his multiple bypass surgery and he was early 40's.
They had no other risk factors. However, people are different and the ego's goal is to be supreme. So weigh that. Haha
So I offer only this as information. I have no opinions or make no claims as an expert.
If any of this info is useful or you can use- do so. If not don't.
Either way I wish you well.
