I’ve stated MJ twice in the past and both times stopped after the first week due to feeling unwell. My symptoms weren’t unmanageable but my anxiety went through the roof as a result (I had some sickness and diarrhoea and very extreme suppression).

Just wondering if anyone with a similar experience in MJ has switched to wegovy successfully and found the side effects less than MJ?

I am. I lost a fair amount of weight on MJ but had horrible sickness and other symptoms. I gave it up completely, put a bit back on, and then started wegovy. I have kept the dose at the minimum but had only very light side effects in the first week and nothing since. Weight loss is naturally a lot slower but still happening and feels much more sustainable around daily life.
