I have used Swanson myo-inostiol on and off for several years before tapering off a month ago. With high dosages of myo-inostiol (12-24g) I’ve noticed a marked increase in feelings of calmness, which helped to keep me cool, calm and collected. I was able to mitigate the onset of panic and keep my breathing and heart rate under control. Suffering from panic disorder and social anxiety I often ingested 18 grams which would completely rid of any intrusive, obsessive thoughts that would most often than not lead to severe panic episodes in public places. These high dosages were taken whenever I felt it was necessary.
However, I have started to ingest 3.5 grams morning and night for the past week, which has triggered brain fog as well as impaired my short term memory. A few years ago I use to smoke marijuana, which as we all know high THC strains can impair an individuals short-term memory, however this is nothing compared to the impairment I am experiencing with inositol. I’m unable to remember things I did 2 minutes ago, it is unbearable. I’ll turn off a light and forget that I turned it off a few seconds later. It’s bizarre because super loading inositol is required for any neurological effects. When I use to super load sporadically, I did not experience any of the negative side effects, maybe it’s cumulative?
