I planned on being on my glp1 long term but started taking Vyvanse for ADHD and decided to stop. After a weekend of eating out with my partner, I was up 5 pounds (off the meds). Legs and stomach bloated.

The next three weeks, I ate the same as I did on the medication and was actually hitting my protein goals better but then I stepped on the scale and it went up two more pounds. 185 to 193. I decided to get back on the glp1 Thursday and when I stepped on the scale Saturday, it was back to 185, my stomach bloat also went down.

Does anyone know why the gain happens after stopping? Will it go away on its own? Vyvanse quiets my food noise, so it doesn’t feel good being on both.

Guidance would be appreciated.

I’ve been dating someone for a few months now and she’s honestly great (I’ll call her D). I’ve never felt this safe with someone ever, I’ve never been able to be myself around someone..like she checks majority of my boxes.

When we first started dating, she mentioned that she was friends with an ex of 7 years. She said it was casual check ins and sending each other instagram post. I was hesitant at first but after having more conversations about boundaries, I eased up. She said that they haven’t hung out in almost a year and it was strictly platonic and casual check ins and they share a friend group.

Last week, she seen her at a festival and told me that it made her uncomfortable. I found it weird that it’d make her uncomfortable especially since their dynamic been established. She also sent me a video of people dancing and her ex was standing close next to her.

Yesterday I overheard a neighbor ask about her ex (she muted me) and that led to D telling me that they’d actually hang out regularly a few months ago but had a boundary conversation when we got serious. I then found out that her ex flirts with her and she doesn’t shut it down. I also found out that her ex is still in love with her even tho she told me she didn’t know if she was.

It was honestly so much she lied about, I can’t list it all. I’m numb and can’t focus right now. D blocked her ex and been saying she wants another chance. She’s begging and all this crap but I don’t know how I feel. I do want to try again because I have feelings but I can’t get over the fact that she would’ve kept it going had I not found out. She came to visit me, I took her to the movies and she talked about the movie with her ex. The ex said she’s losing weight for her and she just said “nooo lose it for yourself lol”.

She claims to not had been strict with her ex because her ex doesn’t have a support system and has thoughts of unalive. I don’t know what to do…I huge part of me wants to leave but another small part of me wants to try again. Writing it out sounds crazy but idk…

I’m 25F in a very toxic living situation where I’m parentified and constantly being beat down on. I’m not looking for pity, I just want to know if I can do it on my own and if someone was in a similar situation, how you adjusted to being alone and caring for yourself?

I’m basically doing that now with no emotional support. I work, care for my siblings, in grad school and starting internship soon. It wouldn’t be possible for me to work as a counselor, do an internship as a therapist and live in this environment. My goal was to stay until next year when I graduate but I feel like the goalpost will keep moving.

Currently I’m expected to graduate with about 40k in loans. I make 50k a year with benefits and monthly incentives that vary month by month. I wanted to try and renegotiate my salary in 6 months.

I know there will be other expenses but my current expenses are phone bill $360 a year, food is $200-300 a month, transportation is 103 a month, cat is $56 every other month, fun is about $200 a month (Muay Thai), then I’ll be getting Athena healthcare through my employer soon.

I just want to know if it’s possible and receive guidance from people that were in similar situations. Thank you

What’s the max amount of rent could I afford?
