Nootropic crew: What is your stack?

me:
Nootropics and Nootropic enhancers: Turmeric <500mg daily SAM-e 400mg daily EPA/DHA L-Theanine 400-1200mg daily Caffeine, 100-200mg daily 5-HTP 50mg nightly Ginkgo Biloba 500mg
Lately I feel like my life is just effortless. Turmeric has been the most life changing supplement I have ever taken.

I use to take 1-2g of piracetam a day with eggs for choline.
Other than that, I haven't taken anything in awhile.

Haven't ever heard of tumeric. Maybe in studying medicinal plants, but can't remember what its effects are. Could you describe what you get from it?

I recently started taking turmeric and quite frankly it makes me feel WEIRD. Like, I often feel quite "giddy", I don't feel capable of or interested in thinking in my head, but if someone asks me a question the words just come pouring out in a way they never did before, fluidly and on point. I am also a lot more interested in socializing. It also makes me feel- hot- for lack of a better word. Like, flushed, as if the temperature of my blood has increased. But not like I have a fever.
Now, I am also taking antidepressants. I feel like the turmeric may help me get off the antidepressants, and that once I am off of them I won't get the weird side effects. Who knows. For now, I have settled for opening the 500mg capsule and pouring out about 200mg of it and taking that. With the 200mg, I do not have the "hot" feeling, but I also don't feel quite so giddy.
I just have to wonder if that is what non depressed people feel like all the time. Surely not. Almost Nobody I meet seems that happy.

It's my favorite high other than dilaudid. I nod on the stuff for about 6 hours, get a great night's sleep, and wake up refreshed and anxiety free for the next few days. I have no tolerance build up after 6 months using at this rate and no withdrawals if I skip a day on my schedule. If I want to go out and dance or chat with people, it acts as a mood enhancer and anxiety reducer. It's like a really clean drunk. I used to love benzos and had severe problems with etizolam. With this I have no desire to redose and have never blacked out etc.

Interesting. Sounds very similar to what I experience when I take a very high dose of Gabapentin. The Phenibut I have is unfortunately in the form of 500mg tablets which are complexed with a bunch of other herbs like chamomile and lemonbalm and valerian root and bunch of other crap that I don't know if I would feel comfortable taking 16 doses worth of.

haha that seems like a noteworthy benefit
Also; I think tumeric is a MAOI hence your effects?
And also;
probiotic dessicated beef liver bone collagen flaxseed oil omega3 Magnesium/calcium/zinc nightly (daily) occassional ltheanine and caffiene melatonin if I drink a lot of caffiene that day 3-10mg (occassional)
I basically eat little meat on my own due to factory farming being unethical/clogged colon/don't like cooking meat/I hate the smell. I am vegatarian but I take beef liver tablets and bone collagen so I get the healthiest part of the animal from humane sources with little constipation/all the things I dislike about meat.

All I know is my own experience. My bottle says take 3 500mg capsules per day. For me, there is no way. I cannot even take a full 500mg per day. I take at most 300mg by opening the capsule. But everyone is different. The first day or two taking Turmeric was somewhat uncomfortable for me. I felt very hot and flushed as the Turmeric actively reduced inflammation throughout my body. But after that it has been amazing. I just feel... zen... most of the time. I feel much more actively engaged in the present moment much of the time, and much more blissful- but soberly so, not artificially so, like as if I were on an opiate, or an amphetamine, or marijuana. Some people report little effect from Turmeric. My only guess is that these individuals did not suffer from inflammation problems to begin with and so had no effect to notice as a result of taking it.

Phenibut is a very bad one to use daily, I use phenibut about twice a week.
When I take nootropics my prefered stack is noopept and alpha GPC Choline or phenylpiracetam and Citicoline.

Does Sam-e work well? Worth buying it? I feel like I need to go back on anti-depressants but I don't want to. I'd rather take something more natural ish. Combined with turmeric think it's worth it? I'm curious and hopeful

SAM-e definitely increased my focus and natural reward. I feel like I am more able to "let things go" easily. The combination of SAM-e and Turmeric is definitely worth trying before considering antidepressants. Consider 5-HTP at night as well.

Would you say the effects of turmeric are noticable and would you suspect that for you that they are beyond "placebo"? Also do you take it with black pepper?

What is with all this nootropic shit popping up everywhere recently? Because it kinda sounds almost the same as the health food crazes (Eat this grain. Forget that grain eat this vegetable. Forget both of those, drink this smoothie. Hey we've found a new grain better than everything else before it, get your hands on it now!") that sweep the country/world for a few weeks before it's dethroned by something else.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

From what Ive been able to gleam its bullshit and the effects are so subtle its indistinguishable from placebo. Even if it does work, the effects are marginal enough that the well documented side effects arent really worth it. Most of them cause slurring from prolonged use. Total waste of money. You want focus hit the gym and meditate.

Not really. All diets really center around avoiding processed food and refined grains, sugars, etc. and shooting for more quality meats. Basically whole grains, nuts, beans, organic meats, fruits, vegatables. Other than that, its really just cutting one or two groups out. Most diets or diet philosophies are sort of culty. Idk what caused it to get like this. They are basically rearrangements of the same basic principles

Not really. And I am hearing you out but this is what BC would say. The assumption is that you ARE already doing meditation, yoga etc.
Its akin to saying "creatine is bullshit and does not work. You want to grow stronger? Lift heavy wieghts!" The assumption is that you use nootropics to make your already good habits enhanced. IMO nootropics enhance meditation, wakefulness and sociability noticably. Also, with the amount of alcohol and other drugs many of us do, wearing this metapohical "brain condom" to help reverse brain damage is a great idea
The issue is; wiegghtlifting supplements AND nootropics are marketed as if they are the defining factor in productivity. They don't say "this will increase mental capacity and gains by about 10-20% if taken consistently with a structured diet, training and lifestyle". The movie limitless probably has much to do with this "craze"

I have know about the potent anti-inflammatory effects of turmeric for a while, but this thread has me interested to try a much stronger dose.
There's about 2mg of turmeric in the digestive enzymes I take a couple times a day, and I thought that was enough.
Phenibut sounds interesting too.

Every 4th day with the phenibut and you should be fine. I think you meant a long half life.

Hmmm...good to know.
OP - tell me more of what you know about L-Theanine. It was recommended to me by a friend to take instead of drinking alcohol or taking Xanax for flying last Spring. It did not work. I have noticed some light effects taking 300mg, you say you take up to 1200mg a day. Do you take that all at once, or in 2-3 doses?

I do 100mg theanine and 50mg theanine morning and noon along with 100mg caffiene and 50mg caffiene same times. I would take theanine with caffiene it noticably boosts effects
I seem to notice its effects when doing heavy cognitive work ie programming, meditation, cleaning. Its like low dose amphetamines or caffiene in that sense. You dont realize its effects till you start doing something where you would otherwise not be able to function at 100%

yogabunny said: I have know about the potent anti-inflammatory effects of turmeric for a while, but this thread has me interested to try a much stronger dose.
There's about 2mg of turmeric in the digestive enzymes I take a couple times a day, and I thought that was enough.
Phenibut sounds interesting too.
That is hardly any Turmeric. Try out 500mg and see how it works for you.

From what Ive been able to gleam its bullshit and the effects are so subtle its indistinguishable from placebo. Even if it does work, the effects are marginal enough that the well documented side effects arent really worth it. Most of them cause slurring from prolonged use. Total waste of money. You want focus hit the gym and meditate.
This is so dumb I don't even know where to begin. First of all, each substance has to be analyzed individually. You cannot simply say that ALL nootropic substances do X, especially not something so ridiculous as to cause slurring. Turmeric would never do anything like that. Second of all, I have taken a lot of drugs. When I don't experience any subjective changes, I stop taking it. It's that simple. Taking nootropics doesn't make you incapable of exercising or meditating. For some people, it can be difficult to get motivated to do those things if they are suffering from some sort of bodily abnormality, like inflammation. Most people can reduce inflammation by eliminating all dietary sources of inflammation, but Turmeric also works as an antioxidant, which can slow down the aging process and provide a natural feeling of youthful vitality.
