Highlights from this day
- per_mg_pete — steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing, still working it out 23:20
- tga_notice — went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step 23:29
- identity_shift — coming back to this im 13 months in at 1 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing 23:51
- stack_sceptic — 26 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half, happy to be corrected 23:54

right so is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
restarted after 19 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time
im at 2.4 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step

does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip
mine faded too
$120 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt, happy to be corrected
