Can I please hear some experiences?
It makes me horny as hell.Can I please hear some experiences?
My number one quest in life!It makes me horny as hell.
Interesting....Put me to sleep, and when I woke up I was groggy for two hours.
Mmm....spot on!I have a bottle of untouched mucuna because im afraid to mess with dopamine. That the reason rehab centers exist. Also elevated dopamine levels can cause temporary bouts of schizophrenia. Great post because Im curious to know the side effects specific to mucuna.
Big chour,was this an instant effect from first dose?It makes me horny as hell.
Mucuna pruriens generally improves my depth of sleep, mood, and libido (NOW Mucuna or SNS Inhibit-P). 99% L-dopa has similar effects but actually increases my alertness during the day and doesn't have as strong of an effect on mood.
Better sleep quality and mood are the two things I notice most.
So when you take a narcotic,you get a supraphysiological surge of dopamine as a result?Anything that increases DA output from the Ventral Tegmental Area onto the nucleus accumbens has addictive potential, but since we are talking physiological doses of l-dopa without "surges," the addictive potential is essentially nil.
It was a natural uplift in mood.
Yes, they typically occupy the mu opioid receptor, which inhibits GABA release, which disinhibits dopamine release on adjacent neurons synapsing onto the NA.So when you take a narcotic,you get a supraphysiological surge of dopamine as a result?
So this is something entirely different from when you take in l-dopa?Yes, they typically occupy the mu opioid receptor, which inhibits GABA release, which disinhibits dopamine release on adjacent neurons synapsing onto the NA.
Sounds good,how do you do with anxiety/depression in general?Not prone?Bouts of schizophrenia? I've never experienced anything bad with mucana. Haven't met anyone who has actually
Thanks Breezy!It was a very natural feeling. My mood was just noticeably better overall.
This! Every time I take it I can't get to my girl soon enough.It makes me horny as hell.
After the first dose?This! Every time I take it I can't get to my girl soon enough.

L-dopa is a precursor to dopamine. Don't worry about addiction.So this is something entirely different from when you take in l-dopa?
After all,it would be a banned substance otherwise?
L-dopa does not act on opioid receptor?
For me it takes a few days to really kick in. After a week though, libido and wood is through the roof!Big chour,was this an instant effect from first dose?
This should be every man's quest in life!My number one quest in life!
I've took mucuna for many years and it just adds a nice little lift to my mood. I ran about a years worth of 8 week cycles of Endosurge with great results in the libido department. Sleep was deeper and had vivid dreams. Not ZMA type crazy dreams, but fun none the less.
Guys,does the libido stay on later in the cycle,or does it tank?For me it takes a few days to really kick in. After a week though, libido and wood is through the roof!
Yeah schizophrenia exposed in people with no previous mental health issues. As a result of elevated dopamine levels. Had a buddy of mine who was a pot smoker and tried 1/3 of MDMA pill once in the form of Molly. He didnt have any issues that night but 2 weeks later his behavior started changing. He was paranoid for about a week and his behavior was very abnormal. He tried it with 2 other friends and they didnt have any issues. This could be just an isolated case but a warning nonetheless.Bouts of schizophrenia? I've never experienced anything bad with mucana. Haven't met anyone who has actually
No, just no dude lol... Comparing the dopamine increase found with mucuna to that of MDMA is not really appropriate.Yeah schizophrenia exposed in people with no previous mental health issues.

This caught me off guard!Just trying to figure how it relates to the subject!Yeah schizophrenia exposed in people with no previous mental health issues. As a result of elevated dopamine levels.

MDMA does not strictly increase dopamine levels though. The euphoric effects are felt due to the increase in norepinephrine, serotonin and dopamine. However, I'm guessing the highest increase is in serotonin considering long term use effects are that of serotonin depletion.Dopamine is dopamine. It may not have any relevance at all just a warning
I like the restful sleep I receive. I either get bulk mucuna or inhibit pMucuna pruriens generally improves my depth of sleep, mood, and libido (NOW Mucuna or SNS Inhibit-P). 99% L-dopa has similar effects but actually increases my alertness during the day and doesn't have as strong of an effect on mood.
So brain region, intensity of dopamine spikes, and halflife of dopaminergic drugs doesn't matter? Then I guess we better stop using methadone in opioid withdrawal treatment.Dopamine is dopamine. It may not have any relevance at all just a warning
Schizophrenia has several hallmarks, none of which you mentioned. Don't assume he has schizophrenia. The disease is caused by a supraphysiological excess in dopamine in a very particular region of the brain. L-dopa won't cause schizophrenia, but if you already have schizophrenia, it can exacerbate it.Lastly, MDMA affects everyone differently, and while its effects while on it are relatively benign (except for excessive hyperthermia or hyponatremia in severe conditions), the 24+ hours after use are where depressive side effects can manifest. Extrapolating the dopamine and serotonin surge caused by MDMA to mild l-dopa treatment is like comparing Tribulus to Methyl-TrenYeah schizophrenia exposed in people with no previous mental health issues.

Believe me when I say that being from baltimore, also known as "heroin city" the methadone clinics are not alleviating the addictions. Its just settling for natty light when there's no bud light around. But this thread has gone WAAAAAYYYY off topic. I was wrong about the L-dopa, just exposing a personal fear of mine that had no relevance. Now please back to the LEVODOPA.So brain region, intensity of dopamine spikes, and halflife of dopaminergic drugs doesn't matter?

You clearly don't understand how methadone works. You cannot get high off the dose of methadone used in the clinics. You are getting liquid-methadone from clinics confused with pill methadone prescribed by pain management centers. The thread is not off topic at all, and the analogy is very relevant. Heroin creates a supraphysiological surge of DA in the nucleus accumbens in a brief window of time. Methadone has a much, much longer half-life, and the "trickling" effect of dopamine (less released per unit time) creates a very different perceived physiological response. In this manner, L-dopa is not comparable to any illicit drugs and cannot be rooted out as a cause for schizophrenia. Got it?Believe me when I say that being from baltimore, also known as "heroin city" the methadone clinics are not alleviating the addictions.

Thanks sir we Love it too!I love the stuff.
Inhibit-P ftw

Hey dude thanks for having my back, try DRIVE from App Nut for libido. It works wonders in the libido department. Im on it myself.Methadone is crap for curing addiction.
BELIEVE ME,I KNOW>
So you`re spot on,it`s just a substitute.
As for levodopa....
I keep reading how some Parkinson`s patients develop schizo after years on levodopa.
I wouldn`t rule it un-harmful.
It`s practically a med,obtainable as supplement.
Guess I`m just gonna have to order a bottle and see for myslef.
One bottle shouldn`t **** my brain up.
I`m really liking the libido part everyone keeps mentioning.
