Semax: Focus #12

Frankly this si whats gonna save me 10 years of my life. Celsius, 4 cans a day, 3 years straight, week 5 on sema and sure enough I just stopped drinking that poison

I'm saving so much money from semaglutide. No desire for alcohol at all, but still visit my friends at bars to have a non-alcoholic beer or two. Busted my ass in the gym every day for years with no change and finally seeing great results. You really can't outrun a bad weekend diet... It's impossible.

Used to want kids, really badly, we had names picked. We've been together for 7 years, but the feeling is gone ever since getting on Ozempic and now Reta. Not gone as is in maybe later, but rather never. My partner asked yesterday if we should try and I said yes but in reality I want to divorce. I feel bad & praying

​I turned to GLP-1s to fix a metabolism wrecked by an ill-advised growth hormone protocol. Severe insulin resistance hit overnight, spiking my HOMA-IR and making me terrified of clean carbs. ​Semaglutide helped initially, then stalled. What no one told me is that prior GLP-1 exposure means Retatrutide requires much higher starting doses. I lost months of frustration and serious money on low titration doses feeling zero effect until finally hitting 6 mg. Still, seeing 95 kg frozen on the scale is mentally exhausting. ​I run CJC/Ipamorelin to protect muscle, but water retention masks progress. Balancing fasts, night pins, and metabolic healing feels isolating when people only talk about easy drops. If you're stuck on a plateau after prior GLP-1 use, don't lose hope—you're not alone.

People keep talking about “Ozempic divorces.” My husband has secret children. Plural. Reta has made me feel more confident about dating again, which does make leaving easier. But the marriage already had plenty of reasons to end.

Everyone on X glorifies Reta, I did Ozempic for 1 year, currently on month 3 of Reta.. not happy. Losing less weight, feel more nauseous etc.. im currently on 2mg twice per week

Bro I can’t run any of the GLPs. Sema, Tirz, and, Reta all give me full-body histamine dump. Flushing, itching, hives. Using these that actually move the scale are off the table. Here I am sitting here 60 lbs overweight watching people drop 30–50. It sucks. Silver lining. I've read that some come off these drugs with zero libido, someone said that they don’t even care to rawdog hookers anymore. Nice knowing I still have that option.

So here we go, most will call this fake. Started semaglutide in February. By April, didnt lose even 1 pound. Most would say I got scammed or that peptide wasn't the right one, I kept taking it, my feet and joints felt less inflamed within the first couple of weeks. The next month, my wedding ring started getting loose. Then my period came back. I have PCOS. The last one had been three or four years earlier, when I was following strict keto and actively trying to get pregnant. I still wanted the weight loss. Of course I did. But getting my period after years without one made it difficult to look at the unchanged scale and call those months a failure.
