A gram of l-theanine? That seems way high. I only use 100 mg 1 to 2 times a day. Should I experiment with higher doses?
What doses are others in this thread using?
I agree 3g should be the limit for occasional use.
You wouldn't has withdrawl issues, but I do believe you would build a tolerance eventually with any dose. Best to cycle on/off.
I wish I could say that was true. Phenibut is notorious for withdrawal issues and can be impacting with even a single use. For me, it is impossible to take without issues for days afterwards and that is similar with pretty much anyone I have talked to that has used it. Is it debilitating, no. But there is an impact on energy and mood.
I've found the mood impact to last for a day after, and to a lesser degree 2 days after - but I find the impact to be calming and positive. My mood is much better after I take it. I am motivated, focused and just happier.
What dose and frequency do you take phenibut for those effects?
I try to limit my phenibut use - if you research online you read horror stories about it being addictive and some crazy withdrawal issues, and then some people react to it like Kisaj has said. It is something that works well for me, in moderation, and the side effects are almost nil - but I'm careful.
If I know the amount in a product, I usually use about 1 gram of phenibut for great sleep and I try to limit it to 2-3 times a week MAXIMALLY. Sometimes I don't use it at all, some times I will take it 1X/week, sometimes i'll have a week with a lot of stress where my mind is just going crazy and I need to calm down to sleep and I may use it 2-3 times. I've used it 2 nights in a row, etc. - but I rarely need it.
My favorite product so far is Revivarant G, which I don't know how much phenibut is in it because it is proprietary, but I have a feeling it's a heavy dose at the full serving. I use about 1/3 or 1/2 a scoop of revivarant G for the best sleep. If I use a full scoop, I wake up a little dizzy the next morning. At any rate, the effects on mood are lasting beyond the sleep. It may also be that good sleep improves your mood![]()
Mucuna L Dopa is my magic bullet, it not only gives you deep REM sleep which is important but it also raises hgh levels and libido. And it's dirt cheap.

I wouldn't put too much stock into it raising hgh level in any appreciable manner but for sleep/relaxation it's great.
How bout Zembrin ?
