Why does my friend have these random bursts of agression and a racing heartbeat? ?!


Question: Why does my friend have these random bursts of agression and a racing heartbeat.? .?
So I have this guy friend. He always comes to me for help, but I honestly have no idea what's going on with him right now. He tells me that sometimes he wakes up randomly in the middle of the night with a huge burst of adrenaline, sometimes to the point of being really aggressive (he broke his hand on his bedside table...). also, he claims that sometimes he just gets in really, really morose moods for no reason. Today, his heart started to race really rapidly, just out of the blue.

He's really into weight-lifting, and he orders "lifting supplements" and muscle-building stimulants off the internet. Although they aren't illegal steriods or anything, they seem a little sketchy to me. I've sort of indirectly asked him if he has pondered the idea that these so called supplements are doing this to him. He says he's POSITIVE that's not it, because the weird health things started before he started taking the stimulants. He's really touchy about the whole steroids thing because people tend to like to spread rumors that he's on them, as he is seriously built and muscular. I'm not a doctor, I can't really help him anymore. But I am getting a little concerned.

What do you think is going on with him.? Do you think the supplements are having steriod effects on his mood/heart.? If so...how in the world do I approach him (he's intimidating lol) about it.?.?

Thanks so much! Health Question & Answer
