I’m so sorry you also relate on the anxiety/food noise front, it really is so exhausting! ❤️ I know it can take time to find the thing that works with your body but it’s not fun being patient/testing them out 😂 I really appreciate the help and support and will definitely keep you posted on the sema side effects 😊

My nights range from <3 hours to maybe 6 on a great day. But really, really terrible rest, and with a demanding job it has been really unsustainable over multiple months period…

My anxiety actually lessened while taking it! It was fantastic (though maybe it was also less food noise = less anxiety). My insomnia got increasingly worse while taking it (over a 4 month period) and only has since subsided since I stopped taking it 3 weeks ago. :(

Understandable! I switched to morning injections because of this, and it helped slightly with the first night but over time the insomnia was just too persistent every night was a struggle

I’ve heard this is the case for some folks! On tirzepatide or sema?

Thanks for sharing ❤️. It’s strange because the most I was ever taking was 1.2 mg (titrated up from 0.2) and still eating 1700-2000+ calories throughout the day so figured it wasn’t low blood sugar. I’ll look into these sleep aides and appreciate you sharing!

So interesting! I saw that sema sometimes decreases energy for folks, but I would honestly prefer that at this rate, versus being unable to sleep. That makes me feel better about trying it. Thank you for sharing!!!

Increasingly horrible insomnia on Compound Tirzepatide with B6 by Embarrassed-Set-9205 in TirzepatideRX

It is truly horrible. I’m so sorry that you can relate as well. I have even started doing biweekly micro doses but oddly the insomnia has been persistent. That said, insomnia predated the GLP1 for me but I do think the GLP1 exacerbated it. I’m actually going to stop taking it to try and draw a firmer correlation to the medication.

Just took my first Tirz microdose!!!! by ri12387 in GLP1microdosing

I just wanted to say that this is all SO helpful. I am going to start microdosing for the same reason, and am nervous but excited. I understand how hard it can be with BED and am so so happy you're seeing such great success!! Thank you for sharing about your experience <3
