My Experience With Semax (3 Weeks of use)
I’ve been using Semax for almost three weeks now, usually 600 mcg but sometimes up to 900 mcg every morning on an empty stomach. I take it intranasally. I started using Semax because I was studying for an exam. I avoided using methamphetamine because I’m afraid of becoming addicted, I tend to get addicted to things easily, so I chose Semax instead.
Week 1 — The Beginning
On the first day, I honestly didn’t feel anything except brain fog. I couldn’t study for longer periods or focus better. In fact, the opposite happened — studying felt harder. Same thing on day two.
But on day three, things started to change.
The brain fog disappeared, and I felt a slight improvement in my ability to sit and study without getting distracted by my phone. Nothing dramatic, but noticeable.
After one full week of daily use, the difference became much clearer. I was able to study for much longer periods. For example, I managed to study math for about seven hours without headaches — and I was actually understanding what I was studying. Problem-solving felt easier, ideas came faster, and I could analyze things more deeply and get better results.
Even at work, Semax helped me stay productive for longer. One day I only slept four hours, but I still got through the entire day without feeling exhausted or wanting to sleep as soon as I got home.
Side Effects
There’s one side effect that some users mention, but not many: sleep issues due to overthinking.
Semax made me analyze everything I was stressed about. For example, I would start worrying intensely about my future. This can be good in some ways — it motivates you — but it can also create panic at night.
If I took Semax in the evening around 18:00 and tried to sleep at 22:00, I couldn’t. My mind would loop the same thoughts for up to five hours. If I took it in the morning, I still had the same sharp, analytical thoughts, but only for a shorter period (maybe two hours).
The mental clarity and motivation are great, but sometimes it becomes too much.
Addiction Concerns
As I said earlier, I chose Semax instead of meth because I didn’t want to get addicted. But Semax itself gave me a psychological craving. As soon as my Semax bottle ran out, I really wanted to take more. I had to stop myself because I don’t want to depend on anything daily.
Conclusion
Overall, Semax is a very effective peptide for studying or preparing for an exam. But I would personally recommend using it for a maximum of one month, followed by at least a one-month break, especially if you’re like me and have a tendency to develop addictive behaviors.
It’s useful, but you have to be careful with how often you take it and how it affects your sleep and mindset.
