I know we all look for that magic bullet and finding it won't ever be the case but....
Some must help along the dopamine/serotonin pathway.
Lately I've lost a lot of my motivation. I seem pretty low in my state of mood. Just doesn't seem like me tbh.
Over the last few months I've played with supplements and even pharmaceuticals to try and lift my spirits. My diet is pretty good and I usually sit around maintenance or in a surplus so it isn't a nutritional imbalance etc.
This is what I have tested so far
Vitamin D 5-10k iu per day
Magnesium (400mg elemental in the evenings. Bisglycinate)
A premium multi vitamin (All very bio available)
Rhodiola Rosea
Maca Root Extract
Saffron Extract
L Tyrosine or L-Dopa
5-htp
Pharmaceutical...
Modafinil 100-200mg a day (God this made me feel like death)
Phenibut (500mg once/twice week. No longer use it. Never done anything even doses up to 1.5g)
9-mbc (Dopamine based drug. Increases tyrosine hydroxylase)
Bromantane (Almost similar to 9-mbc)
Both these yielded no results
I can't use any of the exotic stims. Ie 1'3 Dmaa. Eria Jarensis' Dmha etc. These all give me hellish anxiety
What's anyone else used that has made an impact? Just feels like my brain isn't firing well at all. I'm still training but dropped to 3 x a week. Sometimes 2 times. Just depends on my work schedule.
Anyone got any good ideas to try? What's new these days?
Just be good to feel some extra kick in my life!
Thanks
