Anyone else take N-Acetyl-Cysteine?

I have in the past. It's got a lot going on. Definitely acts with dopamine and reward systems in the brain, which is likely why it's been explored for nicotine and amphetamine addiction. I used it at 1.2g a day for a while some six or seven years ago. It sometimes upset my stomach due to its acidity, but there for a while it would really get me motivated. Sometimes the effects were a bit too strong, so I started chopping the tablets in half. It also caused insomnia, which is why I stopped taking it. Every once in a while, I would pick it up again and go through the same cycle.

At some point, I picked it back up again and it didn't do anything. This was independent of brand. It just did nothing. Well, apart from help thin out bronchial mucous, I think. I still keep it around because you never know when you might want to do something nice for your liver.

@simstim this is wicked too. Original purely born from the blanket of exstacy culture we were transported into, for the genre but still for me even makes more sense on a real good speedy mind acid trip.

Actually always calms me right down then too. It's individual multi layered beat, percussion etc secretly madly psychedelic uncannyness oriented towards utopic blissful consciousness and space though.

Thanks! I needed that energy!

Interesting, I've never gotten any drug-like effects from it, but I take it when I am feeling like I'm getting sick, and when I've abused my liver, or am about to, and in general as a health tonic (but not daily all the time, only if one of the scenarios I mentioned is active). I could say it might help me to feel more content and like it is easier to deal with withdrawals, but I couldn't say that it isn't placebo.

It seems to make me a bit anhedonic and not do a whole lot else.
I tried it for a couple years and I think that it either did fuck-all or made things slightly worse.
I also found that it may blunt MDMA rolls a bit.
I personally avoid it now.

Yeah, I got drug like effects from it reliably for years, even when I didn't want them. If I remember correctly, agitation and insomnia are known side effects, although I could be confusing it with SAM-e. What's weird is that after those years, it just stopped having shut detectable effect.
 
Well folks, after 15 months of abusing kratom, I tapered down from 60-70g to 5g a day. Now I'm already on my 4th day without it and I feel phenomenal!

I may have had very minor hot/cold flashes for the first day or two, but it was barely noticeable. Years ago I quit things like 300-400mg of Oxy cold-turkey, so this was a walk in the park.
 
I am next dreamflyer. Good work. Been using since 2006 on and off. Although the last several years have been solid, so I have a little more work to do. But I don’t really get too sick either just very unenjoyable symptoms.
 
Good luck guys, you can do it. They resumed my Methadone taper and im now down to 25mgs a day. Im holding off on taking the Memantine again until I start feeling the physical symptoms of withdrawal again, right now i am fine. Going to be ordering more again soon but until that arrives i need to conserve what i have for its intensed purpose. The trip last weekend was fun as hell and definitely scratched the itch for awhile.

Cant believe how much progress i made coming off this stuff its very impressive. Possibly will go on Buprenorphine for awhile tho and then taper off that. Only concern i have is my back problems because being on no Opioids at all makes work much more difficult for me and has led to relapses in the past. Not that i have any plan on doing that ive worked way to hard to throw everything away and go back on Dope, that would be the worst decision ever.
 
Something possessed me to eat 250mg of propylhexedrine today. It's the same thing every time: I watch porn and flog the log for about 8 hours straight, then crash and try desperately to take the edge off (I'm going with beer, magnesium and vitamin B tonight).

I only use it a few times a year, but I usually regret it. It leaves me feeling so fried.
 
After tweaking out on propylhexedrine yesterday, I didn't sleep for one minute last night and I feel like absolute ass. I'm sitting here at 9am drinking a 25 oz. Natty Daddy just to steady my nerves. I need to learn that stims just don't agree with me (especially "dirty" ones like Benzedrex) and stay away from them.

I also think that I'm experiencing a tiny amount of kratom withdrawal. I don't feel it during the day, but when I get into bed I feel as though I just can't get comfortable and feel very restless.
 
I also took propylhexedrine yesterday for some reason. I always drink beer with it because otherwise it's too edgy after a while. And I also feel like ass this morning. Not TOO bad, but I wish I hadn't. I don't often wish they'd ban something, but I honestly wish they would. I wouldn't ever even consider the drug if it wasn't staring at me every time I go to the grocery store. I end up doing it a lot more often than a few times a year, unfortunately. It feels so bad for you... I wish I would stop doing that.

I rarely do more than ~125mg as a dose, though.

Ha ha, that's funny. Why do we punish ourselves like this? I feel your pain! :sick:
 
I wish I knew, man. Between the p-hex and alcohol, my stomach is feeling bad today. I've been drinking pretty often recently, because I stopped taking gabapentin daily, which I was doing for a while. But I'm starting to feel the impact from alcohol, my body isn't as young as it once was, and my stomach starts to feel shitty when I drink too often.
 
I need to start taking a lot better care of myself. At 5'9" a healthy weight for me is around 160 lbs., but right now I'm down to 142.

A lot of times I don't have an appetite because of anxiety, but then I fill up on beer and kratom (and the occasional benzo), so I don't end up eating anyway. I haven't lifted weights in months, and my arms are so skinny that I can't even stand to look at them.

I'm starting my new year's resolutions a month early. Tomorrow I'm going to try going without beer for the first time in months. If I feel up to it, I might even go for a walk or pick up some dumbbells.

Being in my early 50's, I realize that I can't live like I did when I was 25. Back then I could work a 12-hour shift, go to the gym for 2 hours and then drink at the bar until closing time... then get up the next morning and do it all over again!

I don't mind getting older though, because I have a lot more knowledge and understanding than I did when I was younger. I just need to take my own advice and live the way that I should.

Peace, Love & Faith,
Dreamflyer
