What to do next and get through Christmas?

[Whichusernamenow415]

Looking for advice from those who’ve titrated down… I’m at goal after 6 months or so on MJ. Only got to 5mg. I am nervous if I come off it now I will gain and I am desperate to hang on to this blissful feeling of not caring about eating everything in sight. But I can’t stay on it much longer as I just can’t afford to.

I have enough to cover x3 5mg pens plus a whole pen still in the fridge. Do I stay on a 5mg prescription and just halve the dose, buy 2.5 pens or stay on 5mg as I know it works and just hope I can go cold turkey?!

I've been OK taking a smaller dose from pens, you have to be scrupulous with hygiene and refrigerate the pen keep your eye on it for cloudiness, up to you of course it's a risk, more from losing it's efficacy than anything else, I'm the same, at goal and actually still losing because I'm petrified of putting it back on, enough to get me through christmas then god knows, the 2.5 dose is enough to keep the ravenous away but I'd prefer to be on 5, that just takes the food noise away completely which I love, not thinking of food at all.

@Mijaylaflightattendant also struggling to maintain as I can’t get past the calorie total I’ve been aiming for the last few months!
I’ve never counted the clocks before so just a bit unsure…

@Whichusernamenow415 all the doses are 60 clicks for a full dose, so eg if you wanted 2.5 from a 5,count 30 clicks. I have done it for a 5 dose from 10, it's fairly straightforward until the golden dose which is tricky to halve , if you are prepared to risk it, which I was lol. I'm trying to maintain by eating the same every day, so there's no room for miscalculation. I am wanting to eat more now, whereas on a 5 dose I couldn't have cared less about food.

I keep thinking “wow this is what it must be like to not care about food!” 😂

thank you - was never brave enough for golden dose but will try 30 clicks!

@Whichusernamenow415 ,don't forget you'll need extra needles for the pen and extra wipes, you need to be scrupulous with it. Check in your pack some send extra needles some don't.

Oooh great point. I have some spare but need to calculate if it’ll be enough…
