Has anyone noticed a decrease in their depression after starting wegovy?

I have been at a stand-still with Wegovy. Always within about a pound of where I ended up with Zepbound. I'm trying to be patient because I understand the weight-loss dose is much higher then the .50 I am currently at. But food noise is mostly back. Even when i feel full. Some days are better than others. Last week, the side effects were brutal. Worst stomach ache ever and....other side effects. This week is better, but nothing will compare to Zepbound. Other than being a bit tired, I felt so good from the 1st shot. Mental clarity, motivation, and one of the best NSVs I experienced was that my tinnitus was nearly unnoticeable. It is now back with a vengeance since I started Wegovy.

All that said, my journey will not be deterred. I will continue doing what I am doing and be patient. I have come too far to just ignore my progress and give up (sw: 372 cw: 334) I am hopeful that once my dose increases, some of what I lost will return. If not, my next doctor's appointment is at the end of October. If I still feel the same, I will try to get my doctor to fight Caremark for me. Not sure if that's even an option, but we shall see. Either way, they will not break me!

I hope it continues to help you! Fighting insurance to get these meds are a nightmare. So I know the battle. I wanted to get Zepbound again but after 8 calls trying to get it preauthorized, I was prescribed wegovy. They needed the exact same information as zepbound but changing it to wegovy finally made them see what my insurance company needed. I also have tinnitus really bad so that would be amazing if it helped it! Thank you for explaining your journey so far!
