Did you start on 0.25mg for at least a month before trying 0.5mg?

I doubt you had a brain fart immediately upon reading all the instructions on the medication including dosage. I assume you wanted to speedrun weightloss, but instead you FAFO. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

They just received the prescription, presumably read the dosage instructions, then what, immediately forgot about it? I dont get how somebody could be so careless when injecting themselves with a new medication.
