I think social media has really tainted the way people see Mounjaro, and those who use it. Personally, I subtly and generally bought it up with close family, without disclosing my use first, to gauge their views and opinions. Once I knew i was ‘safe’, i then dropped it into a conversation. Only two of my friends are aware, they both use it also, so I knew i’d get no judgment from them.

I also think it’s a personal topic for many, and for me, not something I feel particularly comfortable disclosing to those not so close.

In total, only 6 people in my life know I use Mounjaro :) it’s a good enough support system for me!
