N-acetyl-selank vs. Memantine for severe anxiety?

I had a post written out, which I subsequently lost, so will keep this pretty short, I guess. I have severe OCD, ADD and fatigued/anergic depression. I've found stuff like NSI-189, DHF, coluracetam etc. helpful for ADD/depression, but not much has put a dent in my crippling anxiety.
I was just wondering if anyone had found N-Acetyl-Selank useful for intrusive thoughts, or if it was better for physical anxiety? Does it dull pleasure/creativity in the way some anxiolytics can? Does it make getting to sleep on stimulants any easier?
Alternatively, I was considering going down the Memantine/stimulant route (pending I respond positively to Memantine .. I haven't in the past, but NSI-189 has reversed some of my previous 'paradoxical' reactions, and I'm curious to try it again), but wasn't sure if the combo was now considered somewhat archaic, despite it's popularity a few years ago. Is anyone still taking Memantine + psychostimulant? Even though beggars can't be choosers, I'm a little worried about loss of creativity on the combination, and subtle cognitive impairments (someone online once referred to it as 'pharmaceutical beer googles').
I would normally just order both Selank and…

Yeah, that's why I was a bit unsure about taking it (pending it works, obviously) vs. tailoring a more 'boutique' stack.
When do you think you will have N-Acetyl-Selank back in stock? Do you think the N-acetyl version is a better bet for bad anxiety?

It should be here any day. The lab finished it a week and a half ago.
I notice it a lot more than regular Selank. I think it gives a much more powerful calm feeling. Selank is more noticeable if you are stressed. N-Acetyl Selank calms you even under normal conditions.
