Theanine dosage and experiences

[uubiduu]

On the pouch it is recommended 200mg 1-2times per day. What would be if taken more than that? Any sides? More anxiolytic effect? How does it compare to phenibut (which i am a bad responder to)?

I've taken it up to 1 gram per day. It made me feel good and also I think that it helped me to stay healthy through the worst flu season.

Couldn't really compare it to phenibut... Phenibut gives me headache and makes me groggy in the morning. Didn't experience any side effects from theanine.

Theanine makes me a little too slow and I can't take it anymore during the day. It is nice before bed as it makes me super calm even at low 100mg doses. Phenibut is the devil, imo. Feels wonderful when you are on it, but it literally makes me a different person for 2-3 days after taking it. Very agitated, spacy, and groggy. I tossed it in the trash.
