RS is on day three of research and in our experience this is gaming changing for my subject. They didn’t know they needed it. Apparently they have been in anxiety denial their entire life. A recent major life impact sent them into a spiral and we decided to try it just to see if it would help.

Three days ago we reconstituted 10mg with 10ml sterile saline in a 10ml nasal spray bottle that disburses .1ml per spray.At lunch time RS sprayed in each nostril and within the hour saw a notable shift in mindset. Constant background concerns faded away to a feeling of control and calm. RS will be trying 4 weeks on, 2 off for several cycles.

The past 3 days suggests that if someone has the right brain chemistry, it will have an immediate impact for. After the first day, RS learned they had been conning myself about things in my life. Apparently RS was a bit of an anxiety ridden mess that lied to myself that I was just always ready for the worst case. It was viewed as a good thing rather than a key sign of high anxiety. RS is high functioning and successful so they couldn’t possibly have anxiety, right??? Clearly wrong..

We just started the Peptide journey due to weight.. RS went from GLP1 via local through support via telemedicine. As we read we ended up going grey. After looking over a list of peptides we noticed comments about Selank for anxiety. We never….never…. bought into anxiety, at least in RS’s personal case. They brushed off a lot of signs and some friends suggesting it may be an issue. As we read more about Selank we realized that the people it helped in the Russian studies exhibited very similar symptoms to RS..

The more we read the more we realized RS was an absolute stereotype for anxiety. Every symptom showed could be traced back to childhood. That childhood experience primed RS for extreme anxiety and eventually cardiac issues in midlife despite being otherwise very healthy….weight aside and GLP1 helped dramatically there.

We decided to give it a shot….well a spray as it were. Within hours we noticed a fundamental difference to how RS was reacting. This is already too long so I’ll spare the details. I can only suggest if it has no, or minimal, effect on you then perhaps you are already wired normally and Selank isn’t the path for you.

I am genuinely optimistic for the remodeling effect exhibited in studies at this point, but the peace of mind it has already delivered is unbelievable. We are now looking at the possibility of adding Semax in the future.
 
That's so great !
I know about denial or just not knowing. I'm a medical doctor, and I didn't realize until I was 42 that I have anxiety. It just didn't occur to me, until my GP said it. I was like : no you are mistaken ! ' So what do you think those symptoms are ?' lol
But I also didn't realize, I'm ADD until 47 or 48, because I was always told : no one goes through medical school if they have ADD/ADHD. No one has those jobs and do those functions with ADD/ADHD. Well, I do have A LOT of co worker with that or autism. So common in my profession.

Anxiety is just one of the most common feelings / disorders, and it comes it so many forms and shapes.

I do have selank, and it shuts my brain up too.

Yeeeeeah I'm having to deal with being major hypocrite. Not in the medical field but in high tech and always viewed myself of covering all the bases. I'm not anxious...I'm just hyper prepared.

The more I read about Selank the more I started wondering about myself. I mirrored a lot of the folks it helped. I spoke to a close friend in the medical field and asked "heeeeeeeeey you know those heart issues and the other things we've chatted about? Well maybe if I grew up in a household with X, Y, and Z going on for my entire childhood.... could that cause anxiety later in life and cardiac issues" They just laughed and gave me a ton of reading assignments.

Come to find out I'm a walking talking stereotype for functional high anxiety even down to my success in my career field. One day of doses and my world turned upside down. I could just relax and just be in my own head. The weekend came and I didn't have to get right out of the house to "DO SOMETHING". I could weather my teenage girls emotional outbursts with a smile.

I'm hoping the long term remodeling is a reality. I'll see after a couple rounds. Therapy was always in the "Hey if that works for you that's great.... me? No. Nothing I could benefit from. I got this!" category for me. Now I'm thinking once I get a handle I may want to go unpack a few things.

It's quite amazing really! All you needed was a small peptide to win you over.
'Functional high anxiety' oh I like that one. I'm the proto-type lol.
I don't know about the long term remodeling, but we'll find out.
My job is really often stressful and a lot of quick decisions, - a tiny bit of selank in the daytime helps a lot together with semax. And Selank before sleep too, my body feels like a gummi bear. ;-)
I used to do subkutaneous inj, not really convincing effect, but then I made som nasal sprays = OMFG it's working lol

Anxiety > Cardiac > Meds > Weight gain and I put on 30 pounds in 5 years. 5 months on GLP1 and I'm down 44 pounds with almost no lean loss. Assistance from NAD and Semorelin helped there.

I'm full up on subQ injections for now! The nasal spray (or placebo effect) is working for me so I'm not going to test those waters. Everything I read makes nasal seem like the best path forward.

Diagnosis took longer than it should have for me, too, simply because I made it through nursing school.

Yeaaaaah it’s making me realize I may have made things harder than they needed to be! That said the standard alternative route with treatment via ssri/benzo is not that appealing to me!
