Slightly tangential to Social media comparison but MeganSA_TX reminded me — what is the latest on the oral formulations?

I know it is not exactly on-topic but it seems related enough to ask here rather than starting a new thread. Apologies if this has been covered — I did search first.

+1 to MeganSA_TX. Especially the point about "A few questions about your Social media ..." — I have seen the same in my own experience with Social media comparison.

GenomicsKate — that is really helpful context on Social media comparison. Follow-up question: how long did you wait before increasing your dose?

I am in a similar situation (week 4) and trying to set realistic expectations.

To answer jim_asheville's question specifically:

From a clinical standpoint, Social media comparison trap is a reasonable concern that deserves a thorough answer.

The short answer: the evidence supports this approach for most patients.

The longer answer involves reviewing the specific clinical trial data relevant to your question, which I am happy to elaborate on if helpful.
