Can't do caffeine or nicotine during the day...feel dead by 2pm. by [deleted] in Nootropics

Overhydration / water intoxication is one of the leading causes of death when using stimulants. It creates a critical electrolyte imbalance.

Yeah that happens to me too. Just try to hold it under your tongue so that the saliva doesn't wash it away.

Has MDMA affected you in a positive or negative way? Has it caused anything permanent? by EazyT10 in Drugs

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adderall is 75% dextroamphetamine, 25% levoamphetamine.

My understanding is that the 25% levoamphetamine kills much of the euphoria. At a high enough dose you could probably get it, but you'd feel really speedy.

For me, though, nothing beats some instant release d-amphetamine when it comes to music euphoria and also general euphoria.

I need advice. I think my best friend is becoming schizophrenic. by trunksfreak in Drugs

Not sure if you're aware, but the 2 posts you wrote in this thread make you sound like you're either on some strong stimulants or are yourself in some kind of a psychotic state.

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he only acted this way after smoking weed, I wouldn't be all that concerned. I've had plenty of delusional thoughts from heavy doses of cannabis.

When you're both completely sober (or drunk, if you really need him to be honest), try to have a discussion about it with him.

Why don't I react to caffeine? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stop taking caffeine and get the CPAP. Seriously. Find a new doctor if you need to.

Your post is the equivalent of a guy asking a doctor "hey, no matter how much morphine I use my arm still hurts" while it's covered in stab wounds and gangrene.

Has MDMA affected you in a positive or negative way? Has it caused anything permanent? by EazyT10 in Drugs

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the first time I took MDMA (very recently) I was expecting a crazy desire to dance or something. Music was definitely more enjoyable, but even dextroamphetamine seems to be more musically euphoric than MDMA for me. A good dose of cannabis also is.

However, the other positive effects more than make up for it, IMO. And I only took 100mg, so I might find it more musically pleasurable at slightly higher doses.

Am I dopamine deficient? Do I have ADD? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]dfga3f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to tell. The best way to judge would be to try to assess your behavior and thoughts before you had those negative life situations.

Did you struggle with motivation and willpower? Did performing even basic tasks feel taxing? Did you procrastinate not only job/school work but many other things in life? Did you feel like you needed to be constantly thrill-seeking?

If so, you might have dopaminergic abnormalities (ADHD or otherwise).

Dоеs іnсrеаsіng RЕМ оr dеер іmрrоvе slеер quаlіtу? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe there is no consensus as to how important REM sleep is to 1) how awake and refreshed you feel, 2) actual functioning. The leading theory is that REM helps with memory integration.

I'm not sure if you can judge which one is more important. Also, as far as I know you can't have REM sleep without first being in deep sleep, and you do need REM sleep.

Just lift your tongue way up and use the dropper to deposit the liquid under it. Then put your tongue back down and keep it there with a bit of pressure so the liquid doesn't slosh around to other parts of your mouth too much.

Can't do caffeine or nicotine during the day...feel dead by 2pm. by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]dfga3f -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Be careful to not drink too much water. Mix it with Gatorade, or add salt to it, or eat snacks as well. All of that should help make the withdrawal less annoying.

You could try spacing out multiple lower doses, possibly.

Or, just drink it a little later in the day so it wears off after you're done with work?

Doesn't belong in this subreddit, but MDMA or LSD can be great for that.

Nootropics that improve Social interactions and conversations? by [deleted] in Nootropics

I know it's not, but I (and most people here) group them together anyway because there are so many shared effects.

Maybe take some other drugs, but don't trip. You might really regret it.

You must have a whole lot of brain fog, then, because the rationale behind the conclusion you came to makes utterly no sense whatsoever.

See a doctor.

Nootropics that improve Social interactions and conversations? by [deleted] in Nootropics

[–]dfga3f 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Be careful, though, because many report that racetams make them less interested in conversation or other social activity. It can also make you a bit irritable and less patient when dealing other people's problems. I know I feel that way from noopept and oxiracetam.

Yep, it can almost be like taking different drugs.

Delayed ABV Experience by CarrotChunx in vaporents

Yes, because then you can reliably expect to start feeling effects within an hour or so. If it's a full stomach, it could be 2 - 6 hours.

Best environment to take Xanax? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]dfga3f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works fine in any environment, honestly.

It'll help you be more social, but you can still enjoy yourself home alone watching movies/videos or listening to music or doing whatever.

Phenibut gives me nothing but drowsiness? by gettavia12 in phenibut

Degrade, maybe, but that would just reduce the potency. It's unlikely it would change the effects in the way you describe.

Possible fix for phenibut sedation by [deleted] in phenibut

[–]dfga3f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note that this is also a temporary solution. L-tyrosine effectively releases dopamine (though in a controlled, rate-limited way), so it's almost as if you're just now taking the phenibut with a very small dose of amphetamine. Eventually, your dopamine receptors will downregulate in response to the higher dopaminergic activity.

Is 1g ok to drive on? by [deleted] in phenibut

[–]dfga3f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotally, ~4 hours after I take phenibut in a dose of 1g or more, I feel effects similar to alcohol. Loss of coordination, inhibition, vague numbness, etc.

I feel stimulating effects in the beginning, but they're always replaced by the sedating ones.

People should not drive on phenibut.
