Cerebrolysin has the most published cognitive-recovery data but thin ADHD-specific evidence - Semax and Selank have more anecdotal support for focus and anxiety in this community.

Needing a dose increase after a few months isn't the medication stopping - it's the body adapting to the current level. Most people find a dose that holds long-term, but some have to work up to it. The cravings returning at 0.9 suggests you haven't hit your ceiling yet.

43 lbs in 7 months is real, but the health marker shift is the part that actually changes risk. Visceral fat reduction happens before the scale numbers tell the full story.

Amazing! I'm down about 30 pounds myself, it's definitely a journey! Anyone else notice a change in water retention? I feel like I'm holding onto more water weight than before.

Thanks for the fruit tip Reta_King363! I'll definitely try adding some of those to my diet. Maybe that'll help me avoid needing more meds!

That's what I'm trying to figure out! Some people might, some might not...

Hey D-Will-1964, the side effects started for me a little bit after I jumped to the 7.5mg dose. It wasn't immediate, but it definitely ramped up over a couple of weeks. Good luck!

You rock!

I use a sharps container. But I still have my first one. It's just sitting in a drawer. LOL

I was getting the worst tummy troubles from the medication, like awful gas that kept me up all night and then... well, you know. Tried simethicone but it wasn't cutting it. Then I remembered reading something here about an alternative similar to IBGard, and it's made a huge difference! So, a big...

With the state closing its free needle disposal setup, I'm wondering, what do you all do with your used pens and needles? I know some people just toss them, some keep them in a box, and some don't know about the right way to get rid of them. I'm curious how people are actually handling this...

Totally feeling this. Like, is being skinny worth feeling like I'm constantly on the verge of a panic attack?

I'm taking Rybelsus and my mental health has been absolute garbage. My anxiety is through the roof and I'm always fatigued.

Right? It's like tall poppy syndrome. People get jealous and try to tear you down. I'm just thrilled I'm finally mobile again!

Easy peasy, text your telehealth provider, like with companies such as Brello. Obviously not written by a kale. 😉

I've used both and can't tell them apart either.

I've been seeing a lot of people talk about protein shakes as a way to get enough protein when your appetite is suppressed. Any recommendations for ones that don't cause bloating or other digestive issues?

Yeah, FoxIRL641, these meds can really mess with your tastes and eating habits. I used to be a healthy eater; I genuinely enjoyed eating healthy things. Now, chicken makes me want to gag. My go-tos now are protein bars, shakes, and salads, but it really just depends on the day. Sometimes...

Hey everyone! I've been taking a GLP-1 med for about a quarter of a year now, mainly to get my cravings and constant hunger under control. I'm staying at a low dose because the side effects are minimal so far. I'm gradually losing some pounds, which is fine, but I'm mostly happy that I'm no...

Wow, these meds really do work differently for everyone! I wanted nothing sweet on Mounjaro, but on Wegovy I CRAVE sweets.
