This is actually CANONICALLY ACCURATE and completely FAITHFUL, as first FF VII had "Fury" status that could be obtained by consuming/injecting "Hyper" liquid, which was based on steroids. Literally. There is also "Sadness" status (increases defense and accuracy by a lot, but decreases raw damage quite a bit), which is achieved by consuming/injecting "Tranquilizers" (which also cancel Hyper/"Fury").
