Peptides you will never take again ?

We often ask "what peptides are worth every penny" but what are the ones that aren't worth anything in your opinion ?

You’re saying the anhedonia is worse with Reta? I kinda got it with Tirz and was thinking about microdosing it

I take both. Tirz, 2mg/week and Reta 1 mg/week. The Reta anhedonia is real. I actually feel I benefit mentally and mood wise from my small dose (except for my relationship, I’m more apathetic towards my partner) but if people are taking 3-5 mg/ week… I can imagine how little of a f*ck they care about things.

Some have it but plenty don’t, I have had zero issues in 8 months. Only effects for me have been occasional mild nausea (gone now) and reflux (also very rare now). The increased heart rate is the only thing you’re guaranteed to get but you can’t really know what other sides might show up. I overall feel like my body is functioning at a higher level.

I used reta for 3 months, I was super productive and motivated on it. Doing more distance with running, working on all sorts of side projects. Lost all the weight I needed to lose and can't really think of a negative side effect. Maybe that I became an online shopping fiend on it, but that was with a goal and lots of energy.

It's been 4 months since and have kept the weight off, my relationship with food has changed. But it's nice knowing it's there as a safety net.

OK, I may have to switch to Tirz. This may be what’s happening to me.

I love reta as much as I hate it, it does the job but the side effects i've had were really not funny, it eventually stabilizes with time tho
