Reta helps with ADHD symptoms?

[2lanes]

I've seen a few of such posts, is there something to it? If so, what possibly makes reta work better than semaglutide or tirzepatide?

I did Tirz for 2 months it made me sleepy and low energy, unmotivated. Also had a hard time getting through the work day and nodding off around 3 pm. Started reading up on Reta and found many describing the energy and focus they were experiencing on Reta. As well as saying it helped with ADHD. I do have ADHD managed my whole life by myself and honestly it wasn't a thing when I was younger. I actually didn't have a clue until my oldest son was diagnosed. We never did medication, used a lot of organization practices and self awareness technics to manage. Anyway after reading all the info I decided to switch. There really is something to it. I've been on for 4 weeks, uping my dosage to 4 mg today. I've gotten so much done in the past 3 weeks. Like started and finished to completion. My energy level has been great as well. Not sleepy at all during work. It's not like hyper, just awake and not feeling sleepy and getting things done. I am having a hard time shutting down at night. Again it's not like I'm hyper, I'm just awake. However if I make myself go to bed I do fall asleep. So I am practicing getting in the habit. When I wake up, I'm not tired. I have actually noticed I barely drink a half a cup of coffee now.

I've also tried tirz and it only made me sleepy as fuck, not even being in a big calorie deficit. Wondering if it's different with reta or semaglutide.

A good friend of mine that has adhd and takes meds for it is on reta (2mg a week) and now dosing 1mg of selank and semax every three days alternating the two with a day off. He is off his adhd meds completely now. He doesn't want to come off selank and semax but we will see how he responds afterwards.

I tried selank or semax a few yrs ago. I dident really notice anything that beneficial from it. I think I stopped after a week or so.

Glad Im not the only one, Tirz made me extremely tired.



Reta did nothing for my ADHD and I am on a pretty significant dose (10mg/w).
It did "cure" my gaming addiction so I am disappointed about that.

Most here are using sub clinical doses of these GLPs.

There is a ton of observational evidence regarding psychological benefits from all these GLPs, Reta doesn’t stand out in particular.

The most likely mechanism for improved brain function is a reduction in inflammation. Tirz and Reta are roughly equivalent in that regard. But if you have significant visceral fat, a literal inflammation engine, something like Tesamorelin or rHGH would be even more helpful in reducing inflammation.

How old are you? Are you already at ideal weight / trim, or do you have visceral (deep abdominal) fat, like most men 30+?

Have you ever had HS-CRP checked? That’s not the only marker reflecting brain inflammation, but the easiest one and can often give a good indication of where systemic inflammation stands.

can't the anti-inflammatory effect be detrimental for gains? probably a non-issue but I remember reading that NSAID's could be detrimental to the process of building muscle.

Can you elaborate on how it 'cured' your gaming addiction? I've read other anecdotal accounts of Reta having this effect of letting users quit addictions although those anecdotal accounts were talking about drugs. But dopamine is dopamine.
