Teso ain't for me?

[ThePal]

So, I'm already taking 150 mg of Wellbutrin every day. I've read to be cautious. I've tried like, three small doses of Teso, spread them out. I'm starting to feel kinda off, like a mild depression with some anxiety. Hard to say for sure if it's the Teso, but I think so. And, naturally, I bought two bottles... ugh.

Maybe you can sell the extra bottle online?

That'd be ideal, for real.

Thanks for the post. I'm also on 150mg of bupropion and was thinking about trying teso for those long overtime shifts at my job. Now I'll just stick with the one bottle I have and start with even smaller doses.

I take 60 mg of fluoxetine, so I'm in a similar situation it seems. I picked up some Teso after reading it could help with ADHD symptoms. I've been trying to get off the fluoxetine, but I'm worried about serotonin issues. I'm unsure if going off my SSRI is worth it. Has anyone else done this?

If you can get your doctor's help to wean off Prozac, just remember that withdrawals can be rough with any psych drug. The idea with Teso or any peptide/nootropic is that you can cycle it and not get dependent on a daily med.

Have you looked into low dose naltrexone, pe2228, selank, semax, or cerebrolysin while you're tapering off the SSRI? And maybe methylene blue or Teso later? I tried Teso, and even at 500mg/day, didn't notice a thing.

I started bupropion (150mg) last November, hoping it would help with the fatigue from tirz. It's helped a bit, but insomnia is a side effect. I'm thinking about going up to 300 mg. I also have two bottles of Teso that I got for the same reason (energy boost). But after reading another thread here about antidepressants (specifically SSRIs) interacting with Teso, I'm holding off on trying both at the same time. I might try it after I've been on bupropion for a couple of months.

I'm on bupropion and I get warned every time I mention trying Teso. So, my turn: don't do it! Seriously!

 

[ThePal]

I used to take 300 mg of bupropion, but that was years ago. 150 is enough now without causing issues. My main problem is I cannot stop bupropion. The withdrawal is awful. Just constant anxiety. It's just easier to continue it. Maybe if I titrated down slowly enough it would work, but I haven't tried that yet.

I'm curious about peptides for energy too. Has anyone tried sermorelin? I'm reading about it helping with energy and maybe losing some belly fat. I'm seeing some clinics advertising it but they won't give me even a ballpark for the cost of the actual sermorelin. I don't want to waste my money on the initial consult if the peptide is too expensive.

I tried sermorelin. Honestly, I didn't feel any different. Plus, it was pricey, and I wasn't a fan of injecting it. So, not for me. Maybe someone else will have a better experience. I'm looking into other options currently.

I never got off an SSRI completely, but I reduced the dose by like, half, under a doctor's advice, of course. It was still rough. Brain zaps *sucked*.

Has anyone tried PT-141? I read it can help with libido. But I'm wondering if there are side effects or interactions.

Some people get nauseous from it. Others get headaches.
