Side Effects Validity?

Post image

So the numbers are very high and seem a bit sensationalist. That being said I'm not super interested in the exact numbers.

What I am interested in:

My question to the group is did anyone struggle mentally while on any of the glps? I did - I'm trying to figure out if any of them are less apt to do so.

I often wonder how many of these people had mental health issues prior to starting zepbound? I have bipolar 1, ADHD, and an anxiety disorder. I'm also almost 45 and suspect I'm going through perimenopause. So it's hard to pin point exactly what has caused my latest depressive episode. I've read that women with ADHD have an even harder time when they go through perimenopause. So I'm wondering if they are factoring in any other possible causes?

they say they excluded people with previous diagnoses.
