Hey there people. This is going to be long, so skip to the tl:dr if you dont feel like reading my life story. Lol
I'm 20 years old, about to be 21 here soon. I've been a drug addict for almost 6 years now, starting at 15.
I was heavy into the research chemical scene when I was younger, starting off with psychedelics like the 2C series and a variety of tryptamines. I had a bad overdose on 2C-P, taking over 150mg my first time and somehow surviving the 3 days of complete mindfuck that came with it.
Then spice hit the market. Ive smoked kilos of the dreaded gas station weed. Either blends from headshops, or id order chemicals and make my own in bulk. I feel like spice is really whats killed my ability to feel normal. Even though Ive been off it for almost 2 years now, I smoked that shit daily for atleast 3.
I have really bad panic attacks out of the blue sometimes. I cant even smoke weed anymore unless I drink or pop a benzo first. The anxiety just rips through me like nothing. But my main issue is just thaI always feel "off", as if my brain just does not function right anymore. I feel like a zombie to be honest. I never had any psychological problems before spice, but now I think I have GAD or maybe my brains just fried. Lol. I wish I was wiser when it came to ingesting random chemicals from China. God forbid I die from some crazy disease later on down the road.
Anyways, I want to try and use nootropics to fix my head. I hear piracetam is used for people recovering from alcohol addiction. Do any of y'all think this would be a good choice for my situation?
I've also been addicted on cocaine, Meth, painkillers, and just recently came off a hellish 8 month binge of daily phenibut a little over a month ago. I tend to just trade one addiction for another. Maybe the phenibut withdrawal is still kind of lingering. Is that possible after a month of abstinence? I've only been drinking maybe once or twice a week since quitting, and no other substances have been used.
Tl:dr
Is piracetam a good, safe, choice to help a brain that's been damaged by chronic drug abuse heal?
