Highlights from this day

slow.taper — dropping to a maintenance dose was uneventful for me and completely miserable for somebody i talk to weekly, still working it out 03:16
panel_before_after — i think about it the way i think about my blood pressure tablet, and that framing helped me more than anything else 03:28
net_peptide — the maintenance conversation barely existed in here two years ago and now it is half the channel 04:00
slow.taper — how do people handle a two week holiday at a maintenance dose 04:04
slow.taper — there is no trial on every ten days or every fortnight. people here do it and report on it and that is all we have 04:05

cost did not drop at maintenance for me because i went to a lower dose from the same vial and just used it slower, not advice obviously

no official dose

follow up i put 9 back on after stopping and then went back on it. it worked the same the second time round

for the archive coming back after 7 months of maintenance, is anyone interested in the numbers

appetite returning is not the drug failing, it is the drug doing less because you are taking less of it, from memory

ok so if you find maintenance harder than the losing part you are in the majority in this room

i set a trigger weight instead of a target. if i cross it i go up a rung. that is my entire plan
