Noots

I have had mixed results with nootropics.

In the beginning, my first dose of Alpha GPC which made me invincible. I was euphoric. Focused, motivated and I even did the dishes, which my wife, realising that I was somehow high, deftly requested me. I don’t do the dishes anymore, one month after dosing with some nootropics, for the effects, at least the sharper ones, have reached a threshold.

I cannot deny that nothing is going on in the inside for I am still taking them, and I still feel calm and collected most times. But they may be due to my moderate exercise regimen and my intermittent fasting.

One thing occurred to me though. Taking these nootropics as micro doses may be helpful for some of these. I am a little wary taking uridine in the day time. My mother had remarked once that my face was droopy. My sister opined the same. It might be due to one of these stacks.

Lions mane makes me tingle. I experienced flushes. The only safest and comfortable one that I take is milk thistle, at night. I am happy with it. My sleep is a bit better. My liver is probably too.

Haven’t tried 5 HTP. Have ordered it. Maybe that will give a stable mood boost.

Haven’t tried caffeine tabs as a nootropic. Everyone says the boost is real but they warn about its side effects and addiction and also its tolerance buildup. Will never know if I never try. I take it today. Will get an idea within a few minutes and the real damage within a month.

Planning to get Oriveda’s lions mane from Australia. They say it’s the real deal. But it’s going to cost me somewhat.

We are in the process of purchasing a sizeable land, a stone throw from our home and I am looking forward to growing lions mane in it. If I succeed then I would probably bring down the cost of one of my trusted nootropic.

Will update in the evening before the half life of caffeine flushes out. My metabolism is a bit high.

Update: 22-10-2020: DO NOT TAKE NOOTROPICS. SEROTONIN SYNDROME. STAY AWAY!
