As a habitual habit developer, Im keeping my hopes up that in 5 or 10 years, this is something that can help me and many others.

I've read experiences from people on illicit substances that claimed they helped them quit.

It would be beat if this carried over to things like caffeine/nicotine/thc/etc.

There's anecdotal accounts of GLP meds helping with a range of addictions. Of course in science anecdotal accounts are the lowest tier of evidence, that's only top shelf in law.

It's not just anecdotes. Eli Lilly is actively in trials with a glp-1 peptide brenipatide for treatment for certain kinds of addictions, such as alcohol, smoking and opioid addictions.

I believe it. I never heavily drank but I have very little interest in drinking on tirzepatide. The “it would be nice to have a drink or two” on a Friday evening just vanished.
