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…

I don't know if you're prone to insomnia at all, but is coming down from/sleeping on stimulants any easier with N-Acetyl-Selank?

I am not prone to insomnia. I can sleep through a carpet-bombing. However, NA-Selank definitely helps coming down off stimulants.
