I've written a good bit about my experiences with Phenibut in Xorkoth's extensive thread here:
https://www.bluelight.org/xf/thread...ve-long-term-synopsis-and-usage-guide.804928/ If you're interested in the stuff and how to use it responsibly for potentially massive benefits, read this thread! What works for me (basically is: take 2g no more than once a week and every now and then take weeks at a time off from it. Taking a small daily dose will likely do absolutely zero for you.
Also, I have to report on something that's been working almost miraculously for me in the last 45 days and it only seems to be getting better. A friend from Germany just came for a visit. He brought with him a full and a 3/4 full bottle of a product called Nooflow Absolute Mind, along with various and sundry other supplements he said he was done with. The only thing that interested me was the Absolute Mind.
Checked out the ingredients (immediately liked the Huperzine, Alpha-GPC, theanine, etc) and read some positive reviews and decided to try it. I took a double dose (four capsules) on an empty stomach and within 45 minutes felt an almost irresistible urge to start accomplishing things. Note that I had not taken it with my usual caffeine, as I don't take any of that on Mondays or Tuesdays to cycle off of it weekly. So the next morning I took the same four capsules with my usual 200mg of caffeine and OMG, the focus and drive was absolutely insane. I'm working on a project that I've been procrastinating horribly about for the last 3-4 months and I'm also working diligently on a language that I've recently plateaued on and both of these rec'd my relentless attention and dedication.
I could go on and on but what's really interesting is this:I cut back and started taking the normal dose of this NooFlow stuff every day and after a few weeks (or maybe a little more) something changed in my mood. It's constantly up and positive to the point where I haven't taken Phenibut now for social anxiety in weeks- which is perfect timing because I was really in need of a cycle-off of it.
I'm really trying to understand how I got an undeniable buzz off of this stuff after the first dose but then even more amazing benefits after around 30 days of daily dosing. I'm going to paste the ingredients. Can someone look at this and tell me which ingredient(s) I can isolate and build a personal stack with?
- Bacopa Monnieri (50% Bacosides)
- Withania Somnifera (Ashwagandha)
- Alpha GPC 100%
- Uridine
- Lycopodium Serratum (Huperzine A)
- Phosphatidylserine
- Grape Seed Extract
- N-Acetyl L-Carnitine HCl
- L-Theanine
- L-Tyrosine
- Selenium
- Vitamin B6
- Vitamin B9
- Vitamin B12
Also, I'm running out of this stuff and can't find it for sale on their site or anywhere else. Has anyone used it and/or know if it's for sale in brick and mortar stores? Or a very similar nootropic blend?
