NA-Selank .. anxiolysis at a price?

Original post in this thread

odspot · 6 points

Nothing ordinarily touches my severe anxiety (Memantine, benzos etc. all cause paradoxical agitation), but I've been experimenting with NA-Selank over the past two weeks with interesting results. Just 200mcg nasally is enough to offset agitation and overstimulation and land me in a calm, dreamy state. The problem is that .. why I couldn't accurately describe it as brain fog (because my visual faculties etc. are still quite clear), it lands me in a bizarre kind of haze where I can't think, can't really read or process song lyrics, but enjoyment is still relatively intact. I just feel calm and not really bothered by anything. I honestly didn't expect it to do much at all, so the results were really surprising, but I just wish it didn't totally wreck my cognition. NA-Semax puts me in a haze too; I tried combining the two and the sum was greater than the parts, but nothing near the kind of stimulated, clearheadedness I'm after ..

Do you get brainfog from Noopept as well? It's probably the proline-glycine-proline end of things. Noopept has a proline-glycine, so the fog is similar if you go too high on dosing.

Noopept self-experiment: no effects

Replying to gwern · I would be more impressed by that observation if the highest dose hadn't had the *worst* results. (There also seems to be no particular consensus in the anecdotes on /r/nootropics

You're completely ignoring the complex pharmacodynamics of noopept. Of course high oral doses are going to lead to more side effects, with less of the wanted effects. That is because the metabolites are still active, but

Will heat or acidity degrade noopept? (can I put noopept in my morning cup of coffee?)

Noopept's melting point is 97*C (206*F). That is less than boiling, which is what most people use for coffee. So I would not suggest putting it in boiling water. I'd be worried about stomach enzymes too. Oral administra

Four(-ish) questions about NA-Selank!

1) N-Acetyl Selank's anxiolytic mechanism is related to its ability to inhibit enkephaline-degrading ezymes. That increases the levels of your body's natural opioids. That inhibition modulates the dopaminergic system, an

Those of you who have taken Noopept or Semax/Selank for longer than a couple weeks straight and then stopped, could you describe your experience after stopping?

Replying to musicman4534 · The range of effects is so interesting. /u/MisterYouAreSoDumb has expressed interest in finding why there is such a range of effects with compounds such as Semax; I hope he stumble

Ohh, I am going to find answers. It might take me a while, but I am going to find some answers. I am hoping to work with a professor at ASU, who is running the cognitive enhancement program there. He was interested in pe
