Nootropics discussion

im trying armo rn and im not gonna buy it again, the effects last too long

fuck off pajeet, you need to take a 25 sleeping pills instead.

Semax and Selank

the only two that you need. theyre the safest ones, and their effects remain meaning you dont need to keep taking them after a month or two of dosing.

I'm trying armo for the first time soon. Wakalert. I'm seeing my doctor soon and i'm going to try to get him to prescribe me something because i honestly think i have ADD.
Note: i eat healthy, i go to the gym, i read, etc i'm not the most healthiest person as i'm a electronically obsessed just like most people.

What is armo like? im not narcoleptic but im a very studious person.
I've tried weed, xtc, some sort of amphetamine before, but now im interested in taking drugs for aid my education rather than recreational.

it srsly fucked up my sleeping pattern bad.

i think armo is a little milder but lasts for much longer

>Not being able to maintain a crazy sleep schedule
>TFW you mastered sleep and can fall asleep at will, while also being able to stay up for long durations

Weak faggots, mind over matter.

its all shit that fucks with your brain/heart

just accept that youre dumb if you need it

yes it's plebbit but it's all the info you'll ever need on noots

A week of straight adderall mentally fucks me up the point I can barely function. I get off it, and I function worse, til I take a week break, and start taking it again.

I hate adderall it ruined my life I need an alternative

semax will return your brain to normal

Choline supplement is all you need

you mom

microdose LSD.

I have about 550 or so armo's on hand atm, I find that they really accelerate my focus on whatever it is I have in front of me. I can stay up for 18 hours at peak acceleration so to speak. But, for me man. They're fucking awesome. They affect everyone differently though, my two best mates get panic attacks when they take them. But the friends that they've given them to love it. It's weird, sample one. See how you go, I'm on one now AMA.

1. Is there some sort of buzz?
2. Is music more entertaining?
3. What do you study, why do you use it and how has it improved your life?
4. How would you compare it to Adderal?
5. Do you stack it with anything?

I don't know if this was directed at me, but ill answer anyway.

>is there some sort of buzz?
I wouldnt call it a buzz per se, if i could compare it to anything it'd be similar to your first experience with coffee/caffiene. I have a good supply of energy, I feel more driven to do shit, and i cant sit in a seat doing the same thing for 2-3 hours with the only urge being to masturbate or smoke (cigarettes).

>Is music more entertaining?
I enjoy having music in the background as a sort of ambient noise if im studying, mainly instrumental soundtracks because the lack of vocals doesnt distract my thought pattern while im reading. I enjoy music, just straight when i take them as well but i can also go for an entire day of silence as well.

>What do you study, why do you use it and how has it improved your life?
I'm currently doing an undergraduates degree in psychology, but im off for this semester. I work part-time in consumer electronics sales, tv's, computers, phones, general entertainment electronics. I find it just spurs me on, i wont sit idle doing nothin bumming about on bs like facebook and that kind of shit. it helps with my sales, im normally a talkative and outgoing person, but on this im the fast-talking salesperson you hate to love.

>how do you compare it to Adderal?
Unfortunately, I've never had adderal before. the closest i have is ritalin, compared to that Armodafinil is much more sustained 10+ hours, but a level release of energy.

>do you stack it with anything?
Not really, normally i drink a lot of coffee just in general. I'll probably have maybe a max of 5 coffees a day, a minimum of 2-3. that would be the only thing i can think of as a "stack".

Just a heads up though, it affects everyone differently. So the effect that i'm getting from it now, in the past, and in the future will be unique to myself. I think if you can, try it. If you don't like it dont continue with it

teach me your ways

There's no real buzz, there's a feeling but its subtle. The real pleasure is how much work you can do while on it, and how much your focus improves. I sort of feel like a fighter pilot and I'm zooming in to kick ass at whatever I apply myself to. Its like having your first cup of coffee combined withe picking up the quad damage, all day long. Its a lot like adderal without the speed. I feel like a regular person on it I don't need to moderate my behavior. Its improved my life a lot, probably getting a promotion at work soon and I stay up late trading crypto. One thing is, its super hard to sleep evenue if tired. I stack it with coffee and yerba mate.

heavy deadlifts + cardio is the best nootropic out there

that is THE worst for i have ever seen, enjoy the sciatica dumbass.

Feed me moar modas

no-one knows how modafinil does what it does. They're only able to give the most vague explanations. And the effect is very weird and unpredictable.

Now pic related, this stuff will make you a goddamned sexual Tyrannosaurus!

>lower your bf% if you're a lardass
>do regular cardio
>start some strength training program and stick to it. Even doing chinups, pushups, crunches and bodyweight squats is good enough until you get stronger
>eat lots of foods with healthy fats, i.e. fish, nuts, eggs
>stop smoking
>stop drinking alcohol or doing drugs
>get 8 hours of consistent, uninterrupted sleep every night
>meditate daily, even if only for 10 minutes
>try and get at least 80g of protein per day
>try not to be a faggot that gets stressed out easily
>constantly be learning new skills. Even if it's stupid shit like learning to juggle or speak Japanese
if you're not doing any of the above, doing it will vastly improve your cognitive functioning. and sense of well-being You'll get laser beam focus, chad-like ambition and an unemotional, rational disposition. Not only will it improve your cognitive functioning, it will help preserve it as you get older. Before considering doing nootropics or microdosing LSD or any shit like that, you should be doing all of the above otherwise you're wasting your potential.

i cringed really hard fuggg

tell me what causes that so I can stay the fuck away from it

is it china shitcoins? I keep telling people they're no good

You ONLY want to take modafinil under very select circumstances like the day you have a final exam etc.. If you take it daily your body quickly gains a tolerance and also fucks your brain up longterm.

This + black coffee, green tea and intermittent fasting until after you get your work done

but also borderline manic, and you tend to overestimate yourself.
not good for trading.

lmao I remeber this one time where I came home from a party after 2 pills laced with low dose meth. Could not sleep till 11 am, and everytime I tried and failed I fucked my gf.
After 4 times and 4 hand/blowjobs I could finally fall asleep.

this is unironically great advice

last year after a trip to japan i started the following upon my return:

daily meditation in the morning 10 minutes guided (iphone app)

hired a trainer to work out bidiurnally

aggressively learned japanese

set limits in my industry (vfx) to where I refused to work anything past 10 hours daily. This meant that I ended up often times going home after 8 hours. This was a HUGE quality of life improvement, as my industry is known for commonly hitting 90-100 hour work weeks.

sold my car and started taking uber everywhere - again this limited stress, and had a secondary bonus of allowing me to speak to 2 new people per day on the commute into and from work.

this had the bonus effect of allowing me to start vaporizing weed in the mornings - something I never did (indica only). This keeps me relaxed and focused throughout the morning.

started aggressively learning to code - which ties into the python that i used already at work.

set hard limits on how often I would go out - as I prefer spending time alone shit posting as opposed to being out at parties/bars - and more importantly LEARNING TO BE COMFORTABLE with the fact that I prefer solitude.

started microdosing lsd 30 mics, every 3 days while keeping a daily journal of the days successes and failures as well as goals

I would write more but I've got to run

best of luck, OP

what effect does the micro dosing give?
I only did it recreationally

PSA: Armodafinil will destroy your liver extremely quickly. Just get normal modafinil even if it's more expensive.

I used piracetam a couple times. Effect is very subtle, it helps me remain focused a long time but honestly it could just have been a placebo effect.

Great for helping you socialize and talk at parties, not great for concentrating a long time on a particular subject IMHO.

I never did the armo, I get 200mg modas for 1.20 each.

really? LSD good for socialising? It cripples me socially, I just feel so uneasy with people I don't know really well.
Kind of how I think you guys on Veeky Forums are when sober.

Hey fellow VFX bro! What country are you in and which Department? Currently in sysadmin Position at postpro facility and regularly hitting 60hour weeks. How did you do it without getting fired? Are you in a highrr up Position?

I'm talking about microdosing here. I'm surprised you say that, how would you describe the effects, is it pleasant?

Never put anything chink in your mouth. That's all I have to say about that.
