Hey ultra high performers and over achievers ! what's your take on nootropics ? Is there a "Safe Nootrpics " or is it an oxymoron ? I am considering Vyvamind #tech #performancefoodgroup #mindbody
I was on modafinil & I think it’s safe enough. Like coffee without the buzz
Also no addiction yet after using for about a year 😂 just that when I use continuously for a week I might get like some kind of sore throat, but it subsided after a few days’ rest
Safe in what regards? Adderall is safe aside from the insomnia & addiction.. also lack of perceived patience since you also expect everyone else to be as quick as you
And the myriad of long term use health consequences lol
Somewhere I read it's half time is 15 hrs which kind of true based on my experience. Not something I take daily used it one a month or twice where you need to focus badly regardless of your state like stress or not enough sleep
I very recently worked with a psychiatrist, got diagnosed with ADD, and he prescribed Wellbutrin, which has been effective for me so far. It takes 4-6 weeks to fully set in and I’m on week 3. I asked his opinion on Nootropics over the counter, and he said those are usually just caffeine pills, not a true nootropic. This is just information from one doctor so take it with a grain of salt, but it sounds like most all of them are fake
I took "gorilla mind smooth" (ginko balboa and something else I don't remember) before study sessions for my second gre attempt and I had a very impressive increase in my quantitative score. Could have been placebo and the fact that I found harder problem sets to practice with though, but I did feel like it was easier to focus
Snake oil placebo’s
A good fap
I take alpha brain
Pills for sheep
I had a friend a few years ago give me some nootropic sample he got for free. Ngl it worked for me, but not something I'd take everyday.
What was it?
Idk it had a corny name. Prob brain power? brain force? Something with brain
