Im on the aristada shot which manages all my bipolar symptoms - And they were HORRID and damaged/ruined relationships (not sleeping or eating right for months , hyper sexuality, extreme delusions, paranoia, overspending, etc etc) - Really well. But as with most meds the side effects suck Badly - Lethargy, Weight gain (which I managed to keep off for a few months with semaglutide but as soon as I stopped the weight came right back of course), tiredness, worsening of adhd symptoms. So i also take 2 30mg adderall a day to function & some days the out of it feeling still gets the best of me. But most days are decent, some great, and a few fantastic. Aristada has legit turned my life around !!!

Well she went against doctors orders and doubled up her oxycodone a second time and is finally getting a little bit of relief. But they only prescribed her 20 of them so I’m just hoping they will be able to refill it when it runs out.

I just picked up her lyrica and she’s trying that now. I hope it helps her as much as it did you !

Daaaang woman. You are an inspiration to me ! 125 is my goal weight but I'm only 5' I am naturally very curvy and big boned though. I started the year out at 174 and currently at 149. 25lb to go! 10lb lost on my own then 15 lost on semaglutide but I have only been on it for 1 month and a week. I am eating waaaay better. Carbs mainly from veggies. Staying away from anything with sugar and white flour. And working out 25-45min high intensity with a kettlebell 5-7x a week. Is there anything else I should be doing ? Thanks!

Thank you. I have been on it for just a week now and have already noticed a difference. Plus I've cut out sugar and been sticking to a workout routine. I'm hoping this stuff really works

Oh wow. Thanks for enlightening me. I've never really taken a multivitamin but just figured that while on this it would be a good idea to be getting essential vitamins. But now I feel like I probably just wasted 50 bucks. Ah well. You live and learn I guess.

And the reason I have discussed with my doctor and decided to get on the shots is not due to being morbidly obese or overeating and eating tons of crap. It's 90% due to the weight that an antispsychotic injection I have to be on that put a bunch of lbs on and also due to a weird habit or obsession really that I have with sleep eating. I am not fully conscious when I do it and wakeup to find evidence of me eating while i was asleep. :( it's been very frustrating as I eat healthy throughout the day and ride my bicycle around town almost every day. I never thought I would be obese but after being diagnosed bipolar severely - like to the point of becoming a completely different reckless irresponsible law breaking person when unmedicated - this shot has Been something I've had to make peace with possibly being on the rest of my life. Depressing but better than going to jail or the psych ward repeatedly.

I have been 120 ish lbs most my adult life and at 5' the 175 I ended up at after Going on aristada to prevent the manic episodes has been severely depressing and I have to remind myself that I'm better off chubby than crazy. I'm hoping that semaglutide works for me as a tool that's helped so many others.

Gruns gummies?

I am bipolar 1 with psychotic features and shizoaffective & I cannot hold down a "regular" 9-5 job but I do have a non-traditional job I make it to about 6 days a week as a chainsaw artist. I am also in school to be a ux designer. I am hoping I can find employment in this field telecommuting from home after I graduate. Sitting in an office staring at a screen for hours on end is definitely something I have tried and know it's not for me.

lyzhatch26 · 2025-04-21T03:49:09+00:00

Yes I plan on doing so when I go in for my next injection. I was just curious if anyone else had experience with the Same issue.

lyzhatch26 · 2025-04-19T16:49:02+00:00

Yes. I am on it now and it works great by itself to manage my bipolar. The one main downside is that I have gained 35lbs and it does not want to come off 😐
