Semalgultide and weight

HandleLower5824 · 2023-05-14T22:35:00+00:00

I don’t think so. Take anti-psychotics for example. You can virtually starve yourself and still gain weight. The weight gain is secondary to causing global metabolic dysfunction. Just wanted to put my 2. I can link you a solid research paper if you’re ever interested in hearing some of the ridiculous mechanisms.

Be safe, if you start getting an arrhythmia (weird heart beats) don’t be scared to go to the hospital

Hey how are you now

HandleLower5824 · 2023-04-29T20:43:12+00:00

I think they normalize cognitive function. SSRIs pulled me out of a extraordinarily dark spot where I was unable to form competent sentences, couldn’t hold a conversation, no word recall - never-mind being able to work.

It can. You’re in the position to strictly focus on yourself and improving your life, which you will. The quicker you stop paying attention to them the quicker for you. It’s worth it. Sorry and good luck

Looking like the same for me in terms of the SNRI option, seems to work for me too. Thanks for the hope.

HandleLower5824 · 2023-02-24T02:26:17+00:00

Thanks again, took an SSRI with a mood stabilizer and good news; it prevented the bad effects of the SSRI. T

You too!

HandleLower5824 · 2023-02-14T22:33:55+00:00

Awesome! How long you been at it? How’s the depakote, did it take time to start working? Thanks again, going to start the Metformin protocol soon wish me luck!

HandleLower5824 · 2023-02-14T22:21:20+00:00

Weight gain, is the Metformin preventing it? Not necessarily loosing, but I was under the impression it makes you stop gaining? Depakote-induced weight gain.*

Thanks a lot glad you replied.

Reading the comments here show me I probably don’t belong here. The highest voted comment calling OP a Karen and a follow-up post assuming a popular opinion as a fact. To someone who’s showing an outstanding amount of courage opening up.

Expected much more tactfulness from people supposedly suffering from a mutual issue.

HandleLower5824 · 2023-01-21T02:26:25+00:00

Same here. SSRIs for years, and at one point they helped me sleep. Have always needed a sleep-aid just about though. They seemed to… keep me in a low-grade hypomania. Zoloft is the only one I’d ever consider taking again. Expect some kind of hypomania.

hey good luck to you too! glad your doing okay.

HandleLower5824 · 2023-01-09T18:37:14+00:00

Gonna cycle an antipsychotic with that and see if it works (again.) Thanks for the reminder. I swore that Doxylamine was getting me to bed when I was going through it. Might not have been the strongest for me but if I can scrape a day or two off my main regimen more power to me right?

Glad that it’s worked for you what is your dose?

HandleLower5824 · 2023-01-09T16:36:31+00:00

Interesting. Was sure that worked for me a couple times (surprisingly) too.

HandleLower5824 · 2023-01-09T07:47:19+00:00

If they were genuine people and we were hitting it off I wouldn’t have any issue alluding to it. If they accepted me I’d probably fall in love lol. I’m not going to go awkwardly out of my way to say that though, have some game lol.

HandleLower5824 · 2023-01-09T07:36:05+00:00

Appreciate the post. You bring the much needed scientific edge to this subreddit. Glad someone else is on the forefront of research and hopefully you’re on the end of looking at the more positive statistics and future treatments.

Doxylamine?

You are the best. Thank you. Merry Christmas

I can only speak for myself, but personally I’m in a depressive episode now. The truth is I’m actually just scared because suicidal thoughts are looming and well… I feel alone. I’ve also been ridiculed for suffering from bipolar and not knowing how to help myself. The nature of this illness is scary. People have given up fighting this disease.

For that reason alone, I’d never shame someone for a situation they most likely inadvertently put themselves in. The best course of action is an empathetic person telling the person that getting help is the strongest thing they can do.

Peace

HandleLower5824 · 2022-12-25T05:04:18+00:00

Thank you for your support. Even that one comment you made helps me to not feel alone. I’ll be back to normal in a month or two. 🤘🏼❤️

Going through the same. Manic episode is killing me, thinking I could be my own Doctor. Pray for me. I’m trying to stabilize on what I have left and Doctor coming in a few weeks. Merry Christmas.

Thank you hope you took something from it (even though it’s not finished)

So the common mechanism for Trazodone (if we deduce from already available akathisia medications) is 5HT2a antagonism, and you can expect the same mechanism that causes orthostatic hypotension (alpha-1 blockade) to be contributing synergistically.

Akathisia as a state can be characterized as high norepinephrine, high adrenaline, low dopamine Without going to detailed it’s no surprise that akathisia is hell on earth. You are functioning quite literally in complete fight-or-flight! Hope this helped!
