OCD and Mounjaro

[chubloops19]

I suffer with OCD and my symptoms have got a lot worse over the last year. I have lost a significant amount of weight on Monjaro and now have a BMI just under 20. I am scared to come off Mounjaro now as it is helping me suppress my appetite which is helping me manage my current food contamination thoughts and compulsions.

Have you spoken to your doctor about this? You're now underweight it seems, so probably not a good idea to keep going.

The latest guidance seems to be that long term maintenance will likely to be required for most users. Is there any reason why you can’t reduce your dose to a maintenance level? That should help you not lose any more, and hopefully also deal with your other issues.
