Weary of noots

[Ultramario]

Was all about phenibut. Perfect for my social anxieties. One days I took it and had the normal rely tired effect I got from it, but it was like the tiredness wouldn't go away and I was like a hypochondriac for a while, and just kind of depressed. I feel like finally after about 8 months since my last time I'm finally getting better.

Sounds like it's not for you.

I was doing great with it. I don't know if it was one too many. Or the lift mode brand fked me up. But that's how I got through college speaking and everything, job interviews. Ect. I took 1500 and just felt like **** for half a year.

I know I'm a little late to this thread, but phenibut is not your normal/average nootropic. In fact, I'm not sure I'd even call it a nootropic at all to be completely honest, so don't let it sour your view of actual nootropics, many of which have much more favorable risk/reward and dependence/withdrawal/etc profiles.

You just have to cycle it and follow pct afterwards.

I have noticed phenibut can contribute to my depression.

PCT?

Phenibut is a GABA-B agonist which causes downregulation of those receptors which can lead to long term side effects like PAWS. Some consider this damage but it's really receptor dysfunction. A GABA-B antagonist like Homotaurine can upregulate the receptors reversing this and restoring the receptors to a more nature state resulting not only in a disappearance of symptoms but also eliminates any tolerance someone may have for phenibut.

What is PAWS?

Withdrawal sides after use.

Persistent withdrawal sides after use, in fact. Just gonna say, not a fan. I used to take sleepwalker all the time. It’s caffeine, b12, gaba, and phenibut.

Sounds nuts to some for me to say but I think for focus nothing beats a nice addicting 5mg adderall instant release. Just can’t use it two days in a row, or more than three times a week, or for more than two weeks. And not even two months in a row. It’s for those special times when you really need superhuman attention span and determination. And energy. So basically the opposite of phenibut. Or I guess just follow the doctors instructions but I’d rather not get addicted. The doc will say take it daily. I’m not about that, add or none.
