I recently posted problems I've been having lately with piracetam. While I feel it worked great for the first several months, lately I feel it has no effects other than headaches.
I'm looking to replace piracetam with something else. When I had ADD testing done, my memory was average but my processing speed was very slow. Again piracetam helped a lot at first, but now I'm back to where I used to be. Slow processing is negatively effecting almost every aspect of my life from understanding concepts discussed in class lectures to keeping up with conversations with friends to simple things like processing (not remembering) directions to get someplace. There are dozens of nootropics discussed here that have been said to help with memory, but I haven't found any that claim faster thinking or processing. Here is what I've found while looking at this site:
Pramiracetam sounded the most impressive for memory when reading this person's experience.
Oxiracetam sounds just like Piracetam, just in smaller doses according to this recent discussion.
Aniracetam sounded like it had potential according to golden1's post here.
I have read many other links that I didn't post here, but the racetams above are the only ones I've researched. Are there any other ones that exist that could help with focusing or mental processing? (no amphetamine's please.)
