#3Anyone use nootropics and want to share their usage/experience?
Modafinil works really well for me (300/400mg keeping me awake and FOCUSED but not buzzing/twitchy) but worked poorly for my brother (no noticeable effect at similar dosage).
Since taking noopept I have noticed more of a willingness and now desire to learn, something which was an issue in my past. It also seems to help me work for prolonged periods of time without getting burnt out. (anecdotal, could well be placebo effect but it works for me!) Feel free to ask me anything.

I notice the texture of things more, and I constantly have a need to look at everything in my vicinity. It's not distracting however, and really helps with technical tasks.

I used to take a much larger, and more structured regimen, and found it very difficult to keep everything balanced, some things increased the consumption of ACH so much that I had to start taking choline supplements, but if I screwed up my timing/doses, I'd hit nasty lows from too much choline intake. I gave up on it, as the only noticeable difference I had from the regimen was a more difficult job of timing, having to have a lot of pills around, etc.
I stick with nootropil due to its well-established safety, and minimal impact on overall chemical balance.

#8DMAE for example (if I got letters right), if you take it before sleep, it gives you vivid dreams, since it was suppose to help with generation of neural links, then, this would explain effect.
I am still looking and trying to find things that would be helpful without detrimental effects. I should note that anything like adderal I didn't try and don't intend to.

I stopped taking that because obtaining it OTC where I live is kind of hit and miss. The drug requires a prescription (generally to treat degenerative conditions common in the elderly) and some pharmacists are more hardline in that respect.
In hindsight, given it's a relatively recent compound and there's so little research on it, I guess it's for the best. I wonder if my "experiments" can have a negative impact in my health, especially my mental health; I hope the estimates regarding the safety of piracetam turn out to be correct.

This is a fairly effective regimen, for me, for combating fatigue and maintaining focus. I simply keep a bottle of Suntheanine and another of Rhodiola Rosea at my desk and eat them with my morning water or tea. I haven't done any rigorous testing to prove to myself that these things are helping, but I am certainly convinced that they do.
