Two weeks ago I started taking nootropics to addresse the persistant mental sluggishness that I had been experiencing for the previous 6 months. I thought I'd share my results in case anyone was interested.
Multivitamin
Nootropics:
Hydergine: 4.5 mg (2 x 2.25 mg)
Piracetam: Week 1: 3.2 g (2 x 1.6g), Week 2: 4.8 g (2 x 2.4 g)
A-GPC: ~ 450 mg (2 x 225 mg)
Vinpocetine: ~30 mg (2 x 15 mg)
Huperzine-A: ~150 mcg (2 x 75 mcg)
Week 1 results:
I still felt mentally foggy, like I had a wet blanket wrapped around my brain. The only odd thing I noticed was the ability to spontaneously recall childhood memories in graphic detail.
Week 2 results:
Wow! For the first time in months my mind is energised and resonsive. I've been teaching myself some aspects of EM & RF design at work and this week I found myself tearing through the documents. Keep in mind that these are very dry military standards documents. I also felt emotially better but this was likely due to the fact that I could finally get some real work done.
Any thoughts on my nootropics regimen? I'm thinking of cutting out the Hydergine once I run out due to the cost.
If anyone is interested I will post my results in another two weeks or so.
