So far I've tried Pramiracetam, Piracetam, and now Aniracetam.

Pramiracetam was my first and while it made me focused, it tasted like shit, was expensive, and kinda made me an emotionless robot. I gave it up due to the price, plus tolerance seemed to build after a few days and the effects did not last more than a few hours.

Piracetam, taken with Fish Oil was my second, I tried it after reading all of Isochroma's posts on it. In high doses(30g with 30g fish oil) it gave me very enjoyable hypomania.... In low doses ~4g it gave me a nice moodlift, and no tolerance seemed to build, though I did not get that hyper mental enhancement some users report, my creativity was not increased, nor was my ability to recall things, or speak more creatively/fluidly.

Aniracetam seems to be my savior, though I'm only on day 1 so I can't say for sure. I got 100g from HardRhino.com. I read that it was fat soluable and this definitely seems to be..... if anything it's hydrophobic because it can't dissolve in water for shit. Taste was not bad, very powdery substance, and seems to have much less of a taste than Piracetam.

I took 4g this morning, with 2g fish oil... along with my usual stack(B-100, Sublingual B-12, Multi, 150mg Choline Bitartrate).... within minutes I was feeling great.
Observed effects:

• I feel more fluid, and enhanced... even 5-6 hours later....much more significant and better than piracetam or prami, at any dosage.
• Focus enhanced similar to Pramiracetam, but none of the emotional blunting.
• Emotional uplifting present, but different from Piracetam... this feels more peaceful, there is definitely less stress present.
• Obvious anxiolytic effect in action.
• Tastes enhanced, and overall appetite, but in a controlled non-craving sort of way.
• More control....less stress MUCH easier to find the right words... no longer getting hung up searching for words when speaking. There is much less anti-anxiety.... while Piracetam and Prami reduced my anxiety via apathy.... Aniracetam feels to decrease anxiety by being more engaged in the moment, and handling it more smoothly.... definitely like this better in all aspects than Prami of Piracetam.
• I do not feel stimulated like I do when taking Piracetam... piracetam can prevent me from sleeping if I take it too late in the day... but I don't feel that on Aniracetam, though I do feel more alert.
• I can enjoy music and my environment much more... I feel more in-tune with the moment, and can vibe to music much easier... I find myself less concerned with what people think, but in an enjoyable happy way. Where as Pramiracetam or Piracetam made me not care what people think in an "I am powerful, fuck what you think" sort of way......
• I've found myself bobbing my head to music around random strangers....which I never do.
• I don't think twice about things that aren't worth thinking about.... where even on Piracetam or Pramiracetam, I would still have very very minor anxiety about certain meaningless things...Like for instance I would shutter at touching greasy foods with my hands because I like to keep my hands clean... but on Aniracetam, I just don't care really since things like that aren't that big of a deal... but that's just one example. It has positively effected many areas of my life when dealing with small things like this.

This stuff is excellent, and price isn't too bad.... at 4-5g per day averages around ~$2-3 bucks aday. I don't know how long I am going to take it... but I am eager to find out how the effects evolve over the next few weeks till my 100g runs out...This might entirely replace Piracetam in my prior stack, inspite of the price.

Thats a pretty large dose tho, I get similair effects from 1g but not as pronounced I guess. Have you tried lower dosing? I might try a higher dose once or twice to see if I notice any real difference.

[Absent]

The dose didn't feel too high, and yeah I have noticed most people take around .5g-1g usually, though I have also read that people really underdose racetams and much higher doses can be effective while posing no danger. For instance, for me to feel anything from Piracetam I need to take a minimum 5g or so, sometimes I have gone a week or 2, 10g a day on piracetam with no manic like effects. I might try low dosing, but the effects at this dose are very enjoyable.

On a side note... just woke up. My dreams last night were very realistic. I've read Isochroma and other people say piracetam gave them very realistic dreams, but piracetam had no such effect for me. My dream last night wasn't vivid, so much as it was realistic.... dream events made a lot of sense, and my thinking in them felt very solid. Even when I woke up I remembered dream conversation topics and events very clearly, which many of them were some very wonderful ideas.

At one point in the dream I even had a mini-inception, where I was in a calculus class and the teacher asked us to write an essay about numbers or something, and as I began to think up ideas in the dream, my thoughts morphed into a mini-day-dream which was a dream itself, directly related to the essay topic. I then woke from the day-dream and wrote it all down in the actual dream, and turned the paper in.

I can still feel the effects from yesterday, with even with Piracetam the effects haven't been this noticeable. Piracetam megadoses keep me cause bad insomnia at night even if taken early morning, but if this is considered a megadose for Aniracetam, then it actually helped me sleep. I'm not sure why but it seems fat soluable racetams have more of an impact on me than watersoluable racetams, even though I take both with Fish Oil and Water.

Also it's worth noting that I had spent some time on facebook last night flirting with some girls I knew, and it felt as if Aniracetam made my personality magnetic, and super amplified my social skills. Piracetam or Pramiracetam would just make me manic, and cause me to come off a tad annoying... but I felt it so easy to make jokes and flirty conversation. My thoughts were very witty, well held together, and magnificent. I wonderful if they will build the longer I take it.

Also if anyone would be able to give me any tips on the best way of taking Aniracetam. It doesn't dissolve in water for crap. I tried to pour 4 grams in my mouth and I almost vomited because of all the dry powder, haha..... Manager to swallow it while chugging water though. I could capsule it but that would be like 4-5 capsules per day I'd have to make for 4g?

[Patrick Sylvester]

dissolve it in some sort of food oil (olive sunflower kanola coconut)
then mix it in with a milk shake or down it by itself, it's fat-soluble not water-soluble.
sprinkle it in your french onion soup or add it into your quesadilla mixed in the cheese.

[Ultravioletbllc]

I quite normally eat a piece of buttery toast with my morning racetams and fish oils and have literally sprinkled ani onto cinnamon toast with cultured butter

[Absent]

I've had success mixing aniracetam with a protein shake, but it makes it taste like shit. There is more nasty taste doing that than there is just dumping it on my tounge.

[Absent]

So I guess I'm on day 5 for Aniracetam @ 2g per day....

I would say the results are amazing so far. My sleep has been AMAZING. I don't wake up tired anymore, nor do I wake up in the middle of the night(which would happen all of the time). My sleep is always well-rested, and I can wake up on time easily without any trouble. My dreams are super vivid, and I always feel very relaxed when going to sleep and waking up. Basically going to sleep is easier, and so is waking up! It's awesome, and so are my dreams.... but the dreams are getting prettyyyyyy realistic.....vivid, and kind of weird honestly.

I also feel myself thinking more creatively and more clearly during the day. Abstract ideas come to me easily. My anxiety is also greatly reduced and I am at ease and in the moment very easily.

Basically my morning stack, and the only supplements I take are:
Sublingual B12
B-100(B-Multi)
Multi-Vitamin
2g Fish Oil
150mg Choline Bitartrate
400-600mg L-Theanine.
1.8-2.5g Aniracetam.

I can feel the effects are slowly building... I wouldn't say they're becoming stronger, persay, but they are becoming more natural, more stable, more solid, etc... The effects are becoming more fluid so to speak. So maybe you could say this is more powerful, but I feel the other words do the experience more justice.

Encapsulating is a bitch but that's what I did and it [ani+pram] was amazing.

My dreams are becoming weird.... very vivid.. and very reoccurring. Like I'll dream about the same concept 5-6 nights in a row..... but the dreams will all be totally different, yet based around that concept.

For instance I am around guns all day, and my the most easily remembered parts of my dream(s) have been about shooting people trying to break into my house or having my guns jam on me when someone else is shooting at me, lol. Not as scary or terrifying as it sounds... but still.

I also keep having reoccuring WET dreams... though, it's weird... Let me explain. I haven't masturbated in the last few months as orgasming screws up a persons(a males) dopamine balance, and can cause depression, and laziness the following days. I had great success in boosting my motivation, mood, and thinking abilities by abstaining, but the occasional wet dream would cause me to feel drained the following day, I used to get them around once every 1-2 weeks or so.

Now... I have had a 'wet' dream every night I've been on aniracetam, which is highly unusual, but they are not ordinary wet dreams.... I do not actually cum. It is almost a pure mental orgasm. Typically wet dreams will wake me up and I just throw my boxers off... but these wet dreams do not leave my boxers drenched... They are very unusual. Most of the wet dreams happen just before I have to wake up... so they don't really interfer with my sleep.

My sleep still feels very rested and I still can wake up with lots of energy, which I can almost never do... I have only woken up once in the middle of the night while on Aniracetam, and I experienced something amazing. I heard the bugs/birds outside and it was almost as if I had perfect echolocation hearing. I knew EXACTLY where the sound was coming from in the 3-d spatial field, even though I just drifted out of sleep. It was like I could see it in my mind so to speak.

It's worth noting, if I accidentally wake up, I am full of energy, but I can easily go back to sleep with no effort immediately. It's quite strange/interesting. This 'energy' is not interfering with my sleep, my rest, my relaxation, nor my ability to fall asleep... but it seems to aid in waking up and such, etc.

Peculiar.

[helluva nootro]

Interesting post siro, just curious, have you also tried Noopept?

[guyonabuffalo]

I have to agree with you that aniracetam does taste like shit. I've tried a few different ways of downing it, but not matter what the ass taste comes through. I've found for me the easiest way to take it is by putting some water in my mouth, tilt the head back like I'm going to gargle, and pour the powder in my mouth with the water and swallow. I've read about someone doing this somewhere in the forum and it actually works, you barely notice the taste. I'll usually do that after I've eaten something and follow it with the fish oil.

I'm still trying to find the right combo of racetams. I currently have piracetam, oxiracetam, aniracetam, and pramiracetam. My latest experimentation involves 2.4g pira, 600mg oxi, 50mg ani, 450mg ashwaghanda, 1g fish oil, and 250g choline bitarate, 2xday. Somedays I'll take the pira 3xday. The pira has helped me so much that I've quit taking bupropion, as I found that my memory was going to shit because of it. Too much of the racetams makes me super sleepy. I've noticed that if I take more than the 50mg of ani with my current stack, that it makes me tired and amotivated. I'd like to find the correct amount of the ani since I hear that it's a great anxiolytic and is supposed to help with memory in the long term.

Thanks for sharing your experiences, I may have to try experimenting with the higher doses of just the ani, without the other racetams.

[guyonabuffalo]

I tried a higher dosage of aniracetam(2g) and I don't think I'll be doing that again. For about 45 minutes to an hour, I had extreme brain fog. TBH, I felt like I was really stoned. After the brain fog went away, I didn't feel anything significantly different. I've since experimented with smaller doses and they've had a positive impact on me.

Sounds like you experienced quite amazing effects from Aniracetam: are you still taking it and with what effects?

[Absent]

I have taken a pause from taking it to experiment with other stacks... though I still have about 50 grams left, so I may resume in a month or so, maybe a week or 2. I am getting some new substances that I will be eager to try with Aniracetam when I receive them.

[triffidfood]

So frustrating reading all these amazingly positve Aniracetam experiences, all it did for me was make me feel as if I was having some kind of nervous breakdown (jittery as hell & as if my mind was tripping over itself all the time, and that on mega *low* doses of about 20mg (0.02g) a day) ~ very annoying for something which is supposed to be anxiolytic.

Anyway regardless, really interesting topic to read...
