Maintenance

Hi! I was wondering what approaches people have taken once they reach their goal weights? I am very close to mine and am considering taking the 9mg I am on now, every other day. I have never skipped a day and wondered if others might share their experiences about what has worked? Or whether any odd things happened moving to EOD? I know it’s early days for this pill and I have learned so much from this sub-Reddit.

Recovery support for teens

Hello- our child (17) has expressed a desire to attend support groups for recovery from alcohol and SUD as they transition home from a 28 day inpatient program. Her program recommended alateen but that seems to be more geared towards teens impacted by others use (but perhaps I am wrong?). We have found a handful of virtual Smart Recovery groups but almost nothing else for teens. Is anyone aware of virtual options appropriate for teens?

Skin sensitivity is driving me crazy!

I’ve posted a few times about this awful symptom but it’s back and it’s worse than ever. It started just after I went up to 9mg a few months ago. It feels like a shifting sunburn, sometimes my clothes hurt my skin, the location changes but is sometimes everywhere. It’s worse at night. It went away briefly for a few weeks, but returned about 2 weeks ago with a vengeance. I am trying everything to figure out why it went away to replicate it. Shorter fasting times, multi-vitamins, Motrin, Tylenol, exfoliating or moisturing. I simply cannot figure out why it went and returned. Aside from taking a hot bath, nothing else seems to help. Has anyone found ANYTHING that helped with this?
