Slightly tangential to ADHD and GLP-1 need but sarah.morrison reminded me — has anyone else noticed changes in their alcohol tolerance?
I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.
Saving this for reference. Top-tier content.
OP here — wow, did not expect this much response! Thank you all for the thoughtful replies on ADHD and GLP-1 need.
To answer pete_manc_UK: I get my labs done through Quest every 3 months.
Quick update: my latest labs came back even better. Thanks again for the evidence-based discussion — this is exactly why I posted in a science-based community. 🙏
Relevant to ADHD and GLP-1 need advice — here is my latest bloodwork comparison:
Key improvements: A1C 8.0% → 5.3%, triglycerides 223 → 93 mg/dL, hsCRP 6.0 → 1.1 mg/L. All on tirzepatide for 15 months.
The inflammatory marker drop is what impresses me most. Consistent with the SELECT trial's cardiovascular findings.
Want to share my personal experience related to ADHD and GLP-1 need advice since I think it might help others in a similar situation.
I started my GLP-1 journey in October 2024 at 264 lbs with prediabetes and hypertension. My endocrinologist prescribed semaglutide 0.25mg to start.
Now, 16 months later: I am down 69 lbs, my labs have normalized, and I am off 2 of my 3 medications. The ADHD and GLP-1 need aspect specifically was something that made a big difference in my journey.
This community helped me every step of the way.
