I’m on 75mg. Been on it since January. I gain weight exceedingly easily. No issues with this drug whatsoever. I’m not on metformin or any weight loss drugs. I’ve just been fine… able to gain easily as always but very conscious of it.
Im just starting to try losing preexisting weight I had gained before the spiro so maybe that will be more difficult on the drug. We’ll find out
My family tells me I have too high of a bar for friendship but I don’t think I do… I’ve been kinda down about not having friends and they’re like yes you do, you play DnD with a group of people.
Here’s the context:
They were coworkers for 2.5 years with me. We got along pretty well, esp some of them. We never hung out outside of work except when one of them started a DnD campaign that’s online. After I quit, none of them talk to me outside of DnD. I’ve texted a couple of them and got no reply. When we go to play DnD, we don’t talk about anything except the game itself, no shooting the shit really. I have no idea what’s been going on in their lives since I quit. One of them even quit the old job after me and I found out from a third party. I even saw of them in person and they waved so I came over and said hi but they kinda ignored me and it was awkward.
My family points to this as evidence I have friends. To me, a friend is someone who answers a text (even if it takes a while) or someone you could invite out. Am I crazy? Does doing a weekly shared hobby make you friends with someone?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to be a part of it, but I’ve decided to keep emotional distance to prevent any connection at this point. Just see it as a fun thing to do.
I would love to know if I need to just set more realistic expectations and understand what it means to be a friend.
