I recently started taking the BPC+TB500 combination for an injury and began experiencing anhedonia, meaning I've stopped feeling emotions and have been quite apathetic for the past few days.

This happened to me months ago with retatrutide, and I thought only that peptide caused it. After reading on Reddit, I've seen that there are quite a few cases with the Wolverine combination. Or perhaps I'm just more prone to anhedonia.

Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Only thing I have experienced that on is Tirzepatide and my dose is really low, only 1.5. I noticed it on 2.5, so I went down because of that and the gastric issues. Anhedonia is awful, I had it before. I believe it is caused by low dopamine. You might try Semax to counter it. I did that with the Tirz and it really helped.

I'll need to look into this, I also haven't heard of this from other peptides. I do battle anhedonia on Tirz but haven't really found anything that works for me to counter it. I found that while it's hard for me to want to get started doing anything, once I'm moving i generally feel better about it. I have lost the joy for many things that used to bring me happiness. I'm hoping that now at goal weight and dropping back on dose that it will improve.
 
I'm always saying I have zero side effects from Reta, but this might actually be one of them.

I've been feeling a little down for a while now. I mostly blamed the weight gain and the hit to my confidence. My libido has also dropped a lot over the past year, but it seems even worse since I started Reta.

I've been thinking about getting my testosterone levels checked, but here in Belgium they don't really seem to care unless they're extremely low. I'm also not sure whether starting testosterone would be a good idea.

I've also been tired all the time, but that was already the case long before Reta. If anything, losing some weight has actually helped, I at least have enough energy to start running again.
 
Speaking just about me, yeah, I'm probably in a more of a down vibe deal these days from peps...But for me it works because I can be pretty high energy at times almost to distraction... 😎 I never get depressed or overtly melancholy, so I see my mellowing as another benefit of the pep program...

I do wonder how much of your anhedonia is due to the fact that the world is fucked right now?

From what I've gleaned pouring over testimonials and what not is that a small-ish percentage of people can get significant anhedonia from BPC 157 or TB500 or both. Careful with those if that's the case.
