"Yes. I'm a T2 diabetic and have been on an SSRI for years. A couple years ago I was trying to up my dose of Ozempic, as prescribed. Perhaps it was coincidence, but over time I sank into a deep depression and I simply felt like the only reason not to k*l myself was I could never do that to my family. I also developed panic attacks. More fun than a barrel of monkeys! Since then, I've drastically reduced my carbohydrate intake, stopped the Ozempic, and basically made an almost complete recovery. I haven't had a panic attack in two months, and it was mild."

"Dear Dr Scher. I can confirm a very serious major depressive reaction to Saxenda/Liriglutide. This happened 2 days into 1.8mg dose which was exactly when my appetite diminished. Very, very disappointing . This was in spite of taking long-standing Venlafaxine/Effexor, which for this reaction was useless. After stopping Saxenda, my mental state took about 10 days to restabilize. I trust this may be of help to other"
