r/Semax

I started Semax yesterday. I had 10mg reconstituted with 2mL of BAC water, and I injected 10 units (500mcg).

I have really bad anxiety with anything that makes me feel “different” than normal. You could literally give me a placebo and tell me it might make me feel weird, and I’ll panic.

I’m honestly mentally desperate at this point (bipolar, depression, anxiety, memory issues, etc.), so I decided to try it.

Right after I injected, I felt like it instantly changed something. My chest felt tight, my eyes felt super “open” and focused, and it almost felt like vessels in my brain were opening up and things were flowing.

But after about 30 minutes, I felt GREAT.

I wasn’t stumbling over my words at work, I felt focused and motivated, cleaned the whole lab, and just had an insanely productive day. My head was quieter too...way less negative thought “noise.” I even slept really well that night without laying awake thinking horrible stuff or waking up from nightmares. The next morning, I woke up rested on the first alarm, which NEVER happens for me.

Now I’m conflicted because the chest tightness scared me, but I loved the effects afterward.

If I continue, I’m thinking maybe I should try a lower dose like 250mcg?

Has anyone else experienced this? Was 500mcg too much for a first dose, or does this sound more like anxiety/panic from anticipating the effects? Should I stop? Idk🤷‍♀️ 😪

Hi everyone!

Around 10 years ago, I used to run a blog called topbrainboosters, but I have not been active in the community for a long time.

Recently, I got curious about how things have changed and have been lurking for a while. I noticed that a lot of the older sources for Russian pharma nootropics like Semax and Selank seem to have disappeared or are no longer shipping to the US.

I am currently trying to understand whether there is still any real interest in these compounds and whether people actively look for them nowadays.

If there is demand, I am considering setting up a small way to make them available again for people who are interested, starting in a very limited and controlled way, just to see if it even makes sense.

P.S. I understand a fresh account isn't ideal, but I created it for privacy and to separate it from my old online activity.

Would be interested to hear your thoughts and how people are sourcing these nowadays

So I am relatively new to using peptides. Have been holding on to NAD, Glow, Semax, Ghk-cu, and BPC157 for over a month. I was finally ready to reconstitute them and get started on my first shot.

Since I have heard some serious mixed reviews on Semax, (my vile was 11mg) I couldn't understand how to get the proper dose with some of you using only 200-300mcg, and also complaining of having no effects. So I decided to do a 2.5mg big dose done once a week, stacked with 10mg NAD+

I dosed as 9pm at night, knowing I had to be up at 10am.

After the dose within 10 minutes I felt a head change, and started to feel the effects. After 30 minutes, I was feeling incredible. I planed to be asleep by 11pm so I got in bed at 10:30. I closed my eyes, I saw these yellow/orange sparks igniting, and these weird faces that kept morphing and turning into different faces and objects. It was rather mind blowing, my synapses were firing with each spark and flare which apeared to be connecting to other structures, what I can presume looked like neuron channels, the effects were not only physical but visual. I fell asleep shortly before 11pm and woke up feeling incredible, after having the most intense visual dream that lasted an entire day and night (in my dream perspective) that I could recollect and actually interpret. That dream stuck with me for days.

It has been 5 days since this first dose.

I am curious to know what your experiences have been like on high doses? I also cannot find anyone who has taken it at night with my dose. I am wondering if I should high dose, then do small maintenance doses throughout the week on mornings. Or stick to my 2.5mg dose and maybe switch to daytime to see what that is like.

However I am also looking forward to another night time adventure in 2 days. And just sticking to my once a week structure.

Looking forward to your replies and insight.
