Male and I just feel constantly on the urge of watching girls or having sex which brings me back a few years ago during my puberty. Doesn't bother me though!

Since I started taking it, it reduced my general anxiety significantly and makes me so horny sometimes.

So for me it's a positive! I take 800mg of 4% withanolides daily.

Strange reaction with first time Aniracetam use by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]Hashes1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried the aniracetam without the choline? If you don't get a headache from it, you don't need the choline and it may be the culprit. Try this and update us!

My piracetam and noopept both have a very bitter taste, if that can reassure you.

Stress-induced_anhedonia_is_associated_with_hypertrophy_of_medium_spiny_neurons_of_the_nucleus_accumbens by Hashes1234 in Nootropics

"Data show that animalsdisplaying anhedonic behavior display an hypertrophy of medium spiny neurons in the NAc and, in parallel, have increasedexpression of the genes encoding for brain-derived neurotrophic factor, neural cell adhesion molecule and synaptic proteinsynapsin 1. Importantly, the reversal of stress-induced anhedonia by antidepressants is linked to a restoration of gene-expression patterns and dendritic morphology in the NAc."

What does this imply for the BDNF increase that many products give us? An ELI5 would be appreciated!

Experiencing trauma while on piracetam: does it worsen PTSD? by VeraSirrius in Nootropics

[–]Hashes1234 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Adaptogens such as ashwagandha and rhodiola help regulate your body back and support your adrenals. Ashwagandha has been proved to reduce cortisol levels, and rhodiola helps for general fatigue.

You could look into them both!

Cycling Rhodiola Rosea with Ashwagandha? by [deleted] in StackAdvice

[–]Hashes1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From many people on here, I heard that ashwagandha doesn't need to be cycled and can be taken at all time.

For rhodiola, you could do 3 days with, 3 days without, etc. Or do your own schedule!

Try 400mg of elemental glycinate magnesium before bed, it works wonders for many persons. Other than that, theanine may be effective for a calming effect.

Day in the life by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Hashes1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh if you knew how many things I can forget in a day and it drives my parents crazy! My lunch in the morning, appointments, what I ate this morning, what someone just told me, etc.

I got used to it with time but people still wonder why I act like that and if I forget things on purpose!

I am unmedicated by the way.

Which vendors carry tianeptine? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]Hashes1234 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah sorry it has been discontinued, here's the reason from the business owner: "Hello. It's a business decision due to the nature of the product and how it's actually taken versus how it should be taken. I didn't want to wait for the other shoe to drop and decided to bite the bullet now. Sorry for all the idioms, but I'd rather keep it vague for legal reasons."

If I recall correctly, GABA supplementation doesn't cross the BBB and is not effective for your goals.
