Firstly I'd just like to say this is one of favorite drugs, it is prescribed as an anti-depressant and anxiolytic in Europe and Asia. It's an SSRE (serotonin reuptake enhancer) so essentially it's the complete opposite of an SSRI but I think there's newer research that suggests otherwise.

Anyway I've tried all the SSRI's, SNRI's and MAOI's to no avail but as soon as I bought some of this on eBay it absolutely blew my mind, within 10mins it gave me euphoria like a low dose of MDMA. In high doses it feels similar to Oxycodone. The only downside is it only lasts about 2hrs but there is no comedown and re-dosing works fine.

Is there anyone else out there that has had experiences with this drug? From from I've read long-term use of this drug is completely safe, is tolerance a factor for some people? I know alcohol should be avoided on this drug but are there any other combos I should be wary of?
 
Never heard of it. Is it available at all in the states? Sounds intriguing.

Be really careful with those combos. Some drugs shouldn't be combined with anything, and if it's all what you say, why risk it? If you do happen to find some reliable information on that though, do share. Until then (and by reliable info, I mean like medical research or the PDR or whatever its European equivalent is.

Be safe, have fun.
 
Yes I'm from Australia and I always get it sent from the states, there are plenty online vendors around.
 
So you say there's no comedown, and you can redose!? What about addictive potential, long term physical and cognitive effects, or other downsides? I'm going to do my own research on it now, you have piqued my interest, but since you have experience, I'd like to hear about it from the horse's mouth.

Sorry, I'm not answering your questions at all.

Absolutely no comedown at all, due to the short half-life I could dose at 7pm and be fast asleep by 9pm. The consensus seems to claim it's non-addictive but I remember reading a post about a guy who was dosing 250mg a day for 4 months and he reported withdrawal symptoms that lasted about a week (the recommended dose is 12.5mg three times day). I strongly believe it is as habit forming as an other anti-depressant.

There are reports around of people using this for over 5 years and none of them mention problems with long-term use.

As for cognitive effects, for the last few months I've been trying lots of different nootropics (smart drugs) to try an increase my productivity and this drug has definitely shown the most promising results. I can articulate better, I find myself to be more inspired and creative, I'm usually an introvert but this stuff makes me want to go out and talk to strangers.

I have no idea why this drug isn't more popular.
 
Actually its not an 'SSRE'. Recent research shows that it indirectly alterates of NMDA glutamateand AMPA receptor activity. As well as altering the neuroplasticity and release of BDNF.
