anyone have experience using GLP-1s to reverse SSRI weight gain?

I’ve slowly gained 40lbs over the last 2 years on Viibryd, I’m 5’2 so it’s very visible & most of my clothes don’t fit anymore. but I’ve been at the same weight for awhile, so at least it’s no longer going up.

Viibryd works SO well for me (I tried probably 20 different psych meds over the years) and getting off of them is pretty much not an option. my psych has mentioned GLP-1s as a possible solution but they scare me, I already have weird eating patterns (I have ADHD so food is a chore) and a bit of a sensitive stomach. I also have Medicaid, so getting it approved is going to be really tough or even impossible, and paying out of pocket would be very hard. so I wanna read about as many other people’s experiences with this as possible while I decide whether or not to try it. thank you :)
