I always knew I had problems with my memory, but it has gotten so bad that's it's embarassing. I am having a harder time comprehending texts, remembering songs, and just memorization in general. It's as if I have the mind of a 75 year old, and I have too many "blonde" moments. It's somewhat unstable as well, since I could have good moments, and then it goes down. My current job demands me to have a good memory at all times.

I already tried noopept (which seems the most effective, but far from where I would like it to do; its effects are too short as well), aniracetam, oxiracetam choline, piracetam, and pramiracetam, omega 3 pills.

I can't think of anything else.

If you are under stress alot, L-Tyrosine can improve working memory. Sulbutiamine also improves memory.in people with schizophrenia or Alzheimer so it's worth checking out.

Try Huperzine a, but it needs to be cycled / no long term usage.
Since anticholinesterase inhibitors could lead to loss of synapses and/or neurons

...We found that tacrine toxicity on rat B12 glial cells and mouse Neuro 2A cells was strongly dependent on its concentration (up to 500 microM) and time of exposure....

Or try a reliable Rhodiola Rosea extract, this helped me to a good extend.
Its a reversible Mao-A and B inhibitor( exerts on both up to ~94% inhibition) and a weaker Compt inhibitor( up to 60%),

It varies. Although, I stay away from sugars because of obvious reasons.

 

When I eat no carbs, it's "normal" to an extent, but then I get exhausted by day 2.

No forget about huperzine A ! Sulbutiamine, DHA (if you respond well) CDP choline and Uridine (haven't tried the UMP yet, but that theorically the best form) I think it's a good start! Forget about racetams except if you respond well to it,

Looks like you're increasing stress (hormonal) by going low carb, and that makes you feel better for a bit. But then the inevitable crash follows on day 2, you can't run on stress for any length of time.

 

I too was in a similar position a while ago, and tried low carb and a lot of supplements. While it worked for a while, it ended badly.

 

It's funny you say that, what are the "obvious reasons" ? 

 

I'd suggest increasing your carb (and perhaps fruit/juice) intake for starters.

I believe sugar ages a person more than anything else, which is why I avoid it, and I think eating 1000 caloric sugary food is worse than 2000 caloric" non-sugary" food. Diabetes runs in my family as well, and so I am going to avoid sugar at all cost.

 

Although, I can't back that up with scientific reason.

 

I am adding more fat to my diet, especially omega 3, I think it's helping, and I cut out a lot of neurotropics out.

Trying coluracetam for the first time today plus oxiracetam I recommend this, it will help you be more mindful....along with as the above said checking your stress levels, nutritional status,ect.....,
