Yup. The people i know on this didn't even get it for the weight, but the behavior changes. This isn't letting them eat the same stuff and lose weight, this is changing what they want to eat.
They went from ADHD driven boredom eaters to not even thinking about food.
I have ADHD and the dopamine dysregulation really makes it hard to avoid eating things with sugar in it.
The semaglutide really helps, I'm on a lower dose of it 0.5mg/week and have been on it for over a year. I've lost a fair bit of weight but that has stabilized. It costs me ~$30 per month and I save much more than that on eating less food.
For me it really helps with chronic fatigue which was destroying my life. I think it really is a wonder drug for people with auto-immune issues. I was insanely sensitive to it when I started which I think is common with people with ADHD so I started really low and only very slowly worked my way up.
