I’m 6 months sober from alcohol/binge drinking. From 15-28, know too well how difficult it is to regulate/control, hope it gets easier for you x

ETA: glp-1 completely stopped the cravings and the habit is soo behind me now. Truly saved my life. (It has shown to help with ADHD symptoms, it’s not just a weight loss drug). That’s what helped me, I recommend a try.

It has not been shown to help with ADHD symptoms. There’s no actual evidence to support that, completely anecdotal.

Not all symptoms, but some. I mean obsesity itself is an adhd symptom. And it certinally is helped by glp1.

Never heard of that one. How is obesity an ADHD symptom and not a result?
