Memantine experience?

I'd be careful assuming that Memantine is side-effect free. Start very low and be slow ramping up. The half-life is such that it will sneak up on you, and by the time you realize you've been taking too much, you'll be in for a long ride down if it affects you negatively. Memantine made me psychotic; it's definitely not without risks. Apparently, I am predisposed to psychosis, so great learning experience. No other substance has ever been such a catalyst, so I can't really be in the camp that says "it's not Memantine's fault." It was just not for me. I never made it past 5mg.

What else have you used? Maybe you are extra sensitive to dopamine?
