  • I’m taking wegovy, it’s exactly this. I don’t walk into the kitchen and open the refrigerator anymore. I’m building new habits that will stay with me without the drug, and I’m building new daily frameworks around food that I can look back on later without the drug. The change was immediate, in the first week, but building habits takes a while.

    My food addiction stems from having periods of food scarcity in my past and current troubles getting good quality foods. I think it’s something that doctors will be able to dial in later as to which psychological problems the drugs can help with best.

    I also think that pairing this drug with therapy would be amazing as a therapist could help their patient reflect on the changes that are happening and give them the tools to build new habits while the drug is in effect

    From a moderator perspective it seems essential to have a microblogging section, because otherwise people make entire posts for simple questions or personal achievements. That plagues Reddit, drags down the whole site.

    I still think it’s missing something though, streaming video service support. Mbin’s idea of combining known socials works great in that respect. Text and image, but needs video support. P2P maybe, no storage needed.
