After few years, scientists will comeup and will say… we were wrong.. happened many times in history, certain drugs were approved and were called as magical drugs on that time for certain diseases but somehow few years later…drastic side effects were noticed…

@The_winds_of_change wow great just go through the side effects.. I’d mention one of the, the retinopathies… the lethal one…
After every new drug is launched, the side effects are hidden for few years..
Pharmaceutical is now an industry, doesn’t care about humanity anymore

@Doc_Aizazpharmaceuticals have always been an industry, the very nature of procuring, processing, manufacturing and delivering makes something an industry.
Its independent government policing of healthcare that isnthe issue, and i consider myself very fortunate that, despite its flaws, i live in england where my healthcare costs a pittence.

The problem with this drug in particular is that it is not a cure it is a band-aid and you would have to be on it for a long period of time and your family won’t recognise you anymore because they wouldn’t know if you are on ozempic or crack.
@oxymoron500
July 9, 2026 at 12:20 pm
@daledevernon56 “Your family won’t recognize you anymore”. Any source for that?
@Stebon6480
July 9, 2026 at 12:36 pm
I’m not sure you are doing anything more than speaking from ignorance.. You do know that getting clean takes a process of rewiring the neuropathways, and changing habits that keep addicts using.. A band aid has an important function. I mean this to say, it’s not a magic bullet but that doesn’t mean its not useful. In order to recover there needs to be abstinence for a significant amount of time. If this can do that, then addicts can stop long enough to gain clarity and achieve the next step. Complete abstinence is part of the process. Of course there are many working parts to ones sobriety. Addicts might consider anything when they have nothing.

Ozempic is an addiction. Don’t believe me? Look at the craze for it.

I have a friend who says her GLP-1 totally killed her cravings for alcohol and sugar, and that ultimately that’s why she lost so much weight. Cool to see her lived experience backed up by the latest clinical data!

People in the comments have clearly not had to suffer through what i and so many other addicts have to endear when we take the plunge to try and rid outselves of whatever vice we may be addicted to.
The cripplijg anxiety and nausea in our stomachs, the fixation on the association of money and a fix, unable to mentally mature past whatever age our recreational use evolved into dependence… i could go on, i really could.
If these pharmaceuticals can truly help give an addict such as i a slightly less rough ride when outgrowing our addiction then i for one would certainly take it, if it means i could sleep and not be wsking every hour with cravings.

No amount of ozempic is going to keep someone away from heroin if that’s their active DoC.

For years, manifesting felt like something just out of my reach. One day I decided to try Vera Hart’s archetype quiz, and it changed everything. My result matched exactly who I am, and only then did I understand how it really works. If you’re struggling with it too, give it a chance. It only takes a few minutes. ❤️
