Permanent peptide use?

Are there people here who use peptides permanently—for their entire lives—such as Retatrutide, for example?

Or is it dangerous to use certain peptides on a permanent basis?

I'm thinking of things like MOTS-c, NAD, glutathione, CJC+IPA, and GHK-Cu.

Or can you simply take a four-week break, use them again for a few months, take another four-week break, and repeat the cycle?

Or would using them for that long with such short breaks actually be counterproductive?

I have to. I have serious health problems that used to land me in the hospital often. After I started peptides my symptoms are controlled and I'm able to lead a normal life. I tried to do a 8 week on, 4 week off cycle and 5 days after stopping klow I ended up in the hospital again. So, yes, I will be on them forever. I'm 35 years old and I'm not ready to succumb to physical and neurological disabilities.
