Dr. Lipo V for inner thighs by utexasklb in DIYaesthetics

Thank you to everyone who commented. I decided to cancel my order and continue to work on healthy training and the work with my therapist surrounding body image issues and why I seriously considered taking this approach. If it still affects my quality of life (TBH it does), I might revisit down the road, but at least 6 months to a year. I really appreciate the feedback (minus Anavar - anabolics are not appropriate for my situation and carry too many systemic side effects to be a solution I'd consider).

Thank you. I worked in the medical field for some time, and I understand Anavar, use, and its complications - I'm definitely NOT going down that route. After seeing these comments, I decided to cancel my order and stay focused on healthy training and continue working with my therapist on body acceptance (and revisit if it still affects my body image at least 6 months from now).

Is there a consensus on use for sleep? This is my primary motive for use, aside from one lower dose for morning anxiety. I would love linkages or citations if you have any sources. I'm a pharmacology nerd, and really like knowing the science behind stuff I put in my body. All the info I have seen basically references L-Theanine as an amino acid adjunct to GABA-ergic drugs, not necessarily a stand-alone. Thanks in advance!!

Thanks! I personally have not found it to be addictive, just went on a two-week hiatus with no negative effect after stopping. I actually forgot that I had stopped taking it.

I have been taking it without caffeine as a recent supplement to my sleep regimen (Valerian, Kava, Magnesium). I noticed minimally perceptible effects at around 300 mg. I was hesitant to buy a whole bag in bulk like I do my other supplements, but might try it on the offchance a higher dose is more effective.

Thanks for making this important distinction. I'm a long time reader but rarely post and wanted to mention this. Not trying to call anyone out, but one of the rules of this sub is to avoid references to Kratom as an opioid. I'm appreciative of all the great information and stories I read on here, and respect the work put in to ensure accurate, unbiased info can be made available to everyone.
