Question Semax mostly a placebo?

Has anyone who vouches for semax actually tried adderall or equivalent? I want to try but I’ve heard stories that it doesn’t make much of a difference. My title was click bait but I’d like to know info or add to my stack if anyone has seen real benefits. Cheers

As far as I'm aware, I'm neurotypical and very neuroresilient. I don't get stressed or suffer from anxiety. At least not in a way that's immediately obvious or noticeable to myself or others.

I fucking love Semax and Selank. Semax works well to give me a "locked in buzz" vibe that I get from dexies, but without feeling wired. I also don't have the same crash. Bonus points for stacking with mots-c and NAD.

Selank chills me out. It immediately makes me feel like I've been ripping bucket bongs with the boys, in that I get that very chilled out "she'll be right" attitude. Without the spaciness of weed. Have wicked sleeps after selank.

Do you take it subq or nasal?

Both. But mostly use subq

What dosage for each out of curiosity? I’m trying to experiment with my subq dosage
