    Have any of you had bad reactions with Semax and caffeine? Started researching semax. Had morning coffee with a shot of espresso and it was a bad day. Highly highly irritable and just all around bad attitude. Had to apologize to multiple people. Very very out of character.

      It’s hard for me to tell if I am more irritable than normal ( 😉 ) , but when I started researching Semax Randy warned me that it may make you get mad about stupid shit. Since I am usually irritable, and people always come to me with stupid shit, I haven’t noticed a difference. It may well be that the combination of two stimulants to your brain makes it go looking for things to fix, but you can’t fix stupid.

      Maybe dial it back a little bit and see if you can find a balance point.

        Try adding in some selank maybe? that seems to have a good calming effect with out blunting the "get stuff done" semax for my lab rat.

          I did notice this, I added Selank and it evened out.

            Yeah, I have to try that. I’ll grab a bottle from a friend.

              Researching both. Didn't help. From some digging this is a common occurrence. Recommended L-theanine but I will hold off on the coffee for a couple hours after.

                What are your protocols with Semax and Selank? I cant say I have noticed anything beneficial.

                  Selank/semax are fairly ineffective at low doses for my rat. Have to bump up to 750mcg nasal to notice things. Once the rat got to those doses it was a very nice calm and focus feeling. Almost like a "flow" state.

                  Got some adamax/adalank ordered to see if they work better at lower doses.

                    Ok that would make sense. No where near that dose currently.

                      I been doing semax w triple latte daily. Never had such reaction. Could have been selank that leveled things down as well. I am now researching Adamax, cerebrolysin and selank. Only side effects is that I am running out things to do.

                          Immediately following the Semax? The change was crazy. Im a pretty level headed person. This turned the irritability to a 10.

                            I take them intranasal first thing in the morning. As for my charged latte? It is a habit now. Few of the things a enjoy in life first thing in the morning. Maybe dial semax down a bit. I just started researching Adamax because I am chasing a longer lasting semax. It is a little different. Kinda lingers in the head but last longer. I am also using selank to tame it. Maybe I can see what you're going through. I been exploring nootropix for a while. And what I have notice is that this level of clarity doesn't come with juat more peace. It amplifies awareness of good and bad, black and white... But use this new found awareness to your advantage. Better to know than not know at all.

                              @extropian Sorry should have been clearer. Are you having that latte immediately after Semax? BTW having my quad espresso in the afternoon. No issue.
