Discussion Has anyone actually experienced an improvement in their social anxiety from taking nootropics?

7 Upvotes

I have tried multiple nootropics ashwagandha, L-theanine
kava etc only 2 seemed to have worked or at least made me feel a difference Kratom and phenibut any other actual nootropics? I know you are not supposed to feel a big effect like drugs or alcohol but the change is not even subtle with anything other than kratom or phenibut,

Vendor Report/Q Phenibut & phenylpiracetam vendors in EU?

5 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm sorry if this has been asked before.

It has been like 3-4 years since i last used phenibut or phenylpiracetam and i used to order them from Nootropics Depot, but it seems like they do not sell them anymore.

Do you know of any good EU-based vendors with quality as close as possible to the above mentioned seller?

Preferably in powder form please, as i usually took a few grams of phenibut at once and 200mg of phenylpiracetam (separately).

Thank you and have a nice day.

Seeking Advice Seeking suggestions of nootropics in the US

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

I used to take piracetam and choline in another country, but it seems that they were not sold in the US (at least without a prescription).

I am seeking suggestions on what to take for memory, concentration, etc., but I want to buy it in a trustworthy store such as CVS or any other online store/pharmacy.

Vendor Report/Q Tianeptine Sulfate Vendors in EU NSFW

5 Upvotes

Hey!

I would like to order Tianeptine Sulfate for treating anhedonia and depression and executive dysfunctions (because of AuDHD and Kratom Paw). I tried Wellbutrin and Brintellix however they made me severely dissociate and made my anhedonia and apathy worse. Now i would give Tianeptine Sulfate in low doses (3x12.5mg) a try but in the sulfate form if possible because of the longer half life.

I have no experience with zion pharma or any british vendors but that's all i could find since I'm situed in central eu. May you please help me find a valid vendor if possible?

Thank you guys

Seeking Advice Help after using Phenibut

3 Upvotes

Hello! I had to start using phenibut in september due to experiencing random tachycardia for no reason and thats what my family gp gave to stop it, but my regular tachycardia episodes didnt stop so i went to a cardiologist who upon hearing i use phenibut told me to not use it anymore considering the addiction it gives. so i stopped using it on saturday but have been experiencing withdrawal and my condition feels even worse, should i start using it again a little bit or call my gp and ask for help?

(for more insight if others wish to reply later, i’m a girl with many chronic illnesses and yes in eastern europe phenibut is used for anxiety disorders but i am not diagnosed sadly as it is a lengthy process, i drank 250-500mg a day for about a month)

Seeking Advice Nootropic Shipment via netherlands

3 Upvotes

I’m considering ordering some supplements/research compounds from a vendor outside the EU
I’m considering shipping it to the Netherlands first via a package forwarder and then forwarding it to Austria since Dutch customs seems more relaxed

Has anyone recently ordered to an EU country using this route?
How strict is Dutch customs with these packages in practice and is it safe for packages like these to enter the EU through Netherlands?
Any experiences with forwarders that accept non EU packages?

I’m mainly trying to understand the real difference in how the two countries handle shipments. Any experiences are appreciated a lot

Took the 4mg recommended dose for nsi 189 for the first time today. Got incredibly sick and threw up, still feeling it.
Took it in the morning, liquid, held it in mouth under tongue for a lil and now it’s 4am and I’m waking up from a claustrophobic spinning sleep.
Did I do something wrong?

Discussion Creatine Previously Cured ADHD but now Gives Racing Thoughts/Anxiety/Strange Mental State?

• Upvotes

Hey,

So to keep it short, around 2 years ago I was taking about 1g of Creatine HCL (CON CRET) daily via powder and it literally completely cured my ADHD - was super crazy sharp mentally, could sit down and focus for hours and felt very dopanergic and really good.

However, I stopped all supplements since for some time, recently had tried to resume it but now gives me racing thoughts, intrusive thoughts, and just doesn't make me feel good at all. For reference this is Creatine HCL capsules (1 pill) and the effects happen within a few hours.

I'm wondering if Creatine had originally allowed for such a profound mental effect, is there anything similar with regards to biochemical pathways? Ideally they wouldn't be some sort of herbs but rather something found naturally - for longer term usage here.

For reference was on keto/raw primal/carnivore sort of diets for that time. ADHD was also cured on keto diet but this was unsustainable and caused very bad anxiety attacks.
