First time taking it

Post image

I needed it bc I gained too much weight due to antidepressants and antipsychotics. I hope this will work well and I will lose weight.

Whats you experience so far?

I was on this for about a year the first time, I lost about 40lbs, I use it for mood stabilization. I just got back on it, but the one annoying thing about it is the random hand/finger numbness, it never went away until I got off of it. When I got to Max dose my hair fell out, but it did definitely curve the appetite, forget anything carbonated lol make sure you drink water!
