In this video, I explore why some people report experiencing depression while using GLP-1 peptides like semaglutide. Although I’ve had a positive experience with GLP-1s, I’ve heard from many who haven’t. So, I dive deep into potential reasons behind this phenomenon, including gut-brain axis disruption, neurotransmitter imbalances, and rapid weight loss. I also share solutions to help mitigate these effects. If you’ve felt low on GLP-1s or are considering using them, this video is for you. Let’s break down how to use these peptides to enhance life without compromising mental health.
