i get anxious the night before a dose increase, so i take it in the morning now and sleep first

im at month 11 and doing well and feel strangely sad about it, is that a thing

does anyone talk to somebody professionally about this side of it

i measured my waist and my walking pace during the plateau because both were still moving when the scale wasnt

BS

my mood dipped around week five and lifted by about week ten. i cannot tell you why either of those happened

i spent twenty years negotiating with myself about food and then the negotiation just stopped, and that took months to sit with

the dose escalation nerves, does anyone have a routine that helps with them

slightly off topic but the escalation nerves got smaller each time for me but they never went away entirely

the shame eased when i stopped thinking of it as a shortcut and started thinking of it as treatment

i told my family at month four rather than week one, and the timing is what made it go well
