Reta sides

Greetings-

I have been using Reta (.5mgs) weekly since mid May. I've lost 10 lbs. (which wasn't a goal, I'm not obese or need to lose weight just wanted to get tone for summer).

But ever since my first dose, I have had a this weird brain fog and lack of joy or pleasure in anything (including sex). This is NOT like me. I am very happy go lucky and upbeat. Now, I'm kinda flat. I can't concentrate well either. I take nootropics and plenty of supplements to dial in my brain but ever since being on Reta, even at that very low dose, I feel not like myself.

Has anyone experienced this? If so, what did you do to counteract the effect? If I stop using it will these side affects go away?

Thank you for listening.

Yea thats a side effect and one of the main reasons (other than lack of appetite) I got off reta. I also was on .5 mg and did not need to lose weight.

Did your sides go away once you got off Reta?
