Intranasal insulin?

[Kimber]

I'm at 10month off Adderall after using for 17yrs.  I have unsuccessfully tried tons of supplements, nootropics, anti-depressants, vitamins only to find 9 times out of 10 I have horrible side effects that seemingly no one else experiences...

The anhedonia is just debilitating sometimes.

In searching for help with relieving anhedonia I came across using intranasal insulin.  Tried yesterday for 1st time and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.  Nothing Adderall-like, but I'm really  not looking for that, but a nice uptick in mood and energy.  I am hesitant and leery, but after reading everything I can find on it's use, hopefully.  

Just wondering if anyone else has heard of or tried.

nope- but it sounds interesting! i'm always really skeptical of these kinds of things. they either don't work at all, or if they do work, there's some additional unpleasantness as you described. where did you get it?

Very interesting reading about it. Also wondering where you got it? I read about making it yourself at home with Novolin R?

after yesterday, not so great, made me sleepy....ugh

You can buy Novolin R at Walmart pharmacy without a prescription for $22.00.  And just put it into a nasal spray container.

Everything I've read sounded promising, just not much out there yet.  So I'm skeptical now after not feeling the same effect as the first time.

Just thought I'd see if anyone else had any experience with it.
