Recently I ordered Bromantane, to be honest my only thought process was something that would lift my mood up a bit as I was in a pretty sh*tty situation. Alcohol, cigarettes, hungover every other day, partying, forgetting about gym and throwing my progress away.

One morning I tried just a 50 mg dose, under my tongue and oh boy. I didn’t feel much first two hours then it kicked in, the thought of smoking cigarettes disappeared which was crazy as I’m a pack a day smoker. Then I started cleaning my room, which I never do. I cooked a dinner myself, I always order food as I’m too lazy to prepare it. And I sat down, I didn’t feel that crazy overstimulation just clean mind and good mood. It was like my brain was covered in spider web and dust and someone got in and did a deep cleaning. That day I didn’t smoke a cigarette, 0 thoughts of alcohol as I didn’t need it, my mood was okay without them.

Now it’s 11 PM and I’m laying in bed, happier than ever and wondering how could this happen? Did Bromantane fix something my brain was lacking? Maybe I was depressed? Anyone got an explanation?

Photo isnt super good cus I took it with my phone but hope it looks good nonetheless

Are there antidepressants/anxyolytics (or are we close to creating them) that would relieve anxiety and depression, especially anxiety without the side effects of SSRI's, SNRI's and MAOIs and without the habit-forming properties of benzos and pregabalin. I mean for anxious depression, so not bupropion.

So far what can fit the criteria are tianeptine, ketamine, agomelatine, mirtazapine. Many of these have their own caveats or are innefective for anxiety.

One interesting path is increasing Allopregnanolone, which SSRI antidepressants do as well. If something else could safely increase this neurosteroid, it could be an effective anxyolytic. There's already pure Allopregnanolone medication for postpartum depression

Hi all,

In the past year since leaving school I have experienced much more brain fog and often find myself struggling for words in conversations as if my brain can’t process as fast as it used to.

I also have some brain fog occasionally where I forget what I was in the middle of doing (or about to)

Any help is appreciated but I’m looking for a longer term fix rather than something just temporary.

ive been taking titration dose of memantine 5mg , i just want to be on the safer side as i plan to take it for long time / possibly indefinitely. for the past week i have experienced better control before relapses and didnt relapse. since i stared this past week, i see it slowly builds up and it would take 2 weeks for full effect.

my question is, at 5mg does it still work? at that dosage can i take it long term?

thanks

Hi guys, I'm doing a phd in AI and honestly struggling with publishing papers and so on started taking nootropics a few weeks ago hoping it would help me, having mixed results for now.

How would you rate my stack ? is there anythign i could change/improve?

I also have modafinil that I didnt include since every time i take it i get headache so I stopped, but maybe I got scammed from the sourcing

I used around 7 references for this drawing, I really liked how it turned out. I’m so oblivious to rules but I think I read them well enough that this breaks none of them 😬😬

Last information about current war aggressors presenting cutting deep sea/ocean internet lines as an option putting us closer to corporations taking over. Politics from a long time are just theatre- there is nothing specific done or improved, people just arguing and trying to destroy themselves. Most of politicians are incompetent anyway so there is only a mater of time when people will see corporative entities as lesser evil. My guess it will start from a country somewhere in Africa because there is a lot of vulnerable countries a big corporation would have resources to take control of without anybody care enough to react.

Edit
I'am surprised how many people in this group are trying to bend meaning what I was writing about. By corporatism I mean political parties would disappear (completely) lobbyists will work other way around (people employed to present interests of population to corporations) and ruling over country will be divided between corporations (openly).
Musk may have a power, but it is not an official power or any governing position.

It's a silly request, but it would actually really help me. You see, about a month ago, I was dealing with horrible, depressive mood towards the end of the day. The lack of interest in anything, the sadness and the fact that all my thoughts eventually led to hopeless and dark visions of the future, felt pretty bad, but also made it much easier to end my day at a normal hour.

Usually that is very hard for me, at night everything seems much more interesting, and somehow, all the regret over how my lack of sleep destroyed and wasted my day in every way imaginable, completely disappears and not going to sleep feels like the right choice. I understand that that is something that can happen to depressed people.

What could I take that would give me that effect, or something similar, without affecting the rest of my day and that is preferably OTC? I tried some 5-HTP and melatonin, but they were not strong enough.

PS: I know that this all sounds dumb and the best solution is to just convince myself to go to sleep, and I will, of course, keep trying to do that.

In the year 2989 corporations run the world, most people live in large slum complexes and work in giant factories, creating weapons designed for corporate takeovers through inter-corporation warfare and producing parts necessary for interplanetary space travel for cultish corporate elites.

In recent decades the landscape of corporate warfare has begun to transition from attrition style sieges to surgical strikes from highly advanced weapon platforms “Apostles” piloted by security specialists loyal to their corporate overlords. Due to damaged Apostles being recovered by third parties, mercenaries and pirates piloting these advanced machines have begun to emerge. These individuals have proved useful as anonymous attack forces, and some corporate groups have begun to implement their use.

A mysterious sickness has begun to spread amongst the populace and our protagonist’s family has been affected. After trying their best to look into this sickness with their limited resources, the protagonist is framed for a terrorist attack that they assume is someone responsible for this outbreak trying to cover it up and is marked for “asset removal”. Now on the run, the protagonist takes a damaged Apostle they had hidden away for black market sale and leaves their old life behind to begin working as an un-named mercenary to survive. Although this situation seems bleak it might just be the cover the protagonist needs to finally figure out exactly how deep the conspiracy surrounding this sickness goes… 

After doing enough jobs to earn some money and a reputation, an anonymous client who seems to know about the protagonist's past reaches out. This shady client offers up a job that might help them achieve their goal of uncovering the truth behind the sickness. The job entails travelling to a Martian dig site where the protagonist uncovers a vast underground cavern full of corporate laboratories that seems to be a developmental facility for new Apostle technology using never before seen biological material. Upon further exploration they find what seems to be an enormous tomb-like structure housing a giant otherworldly corpse, surrounded by bodies of dig site and lab workers with the same symptoms as that of the sickness.

Eventually the protagonist must choose to either take higher paying jobs from the corporations to fund a cure for this sickness leaving the corporations to continue ruling, or stand up against the corporations for a small chance to end the cycle of control but lose their chance to save those affected by the sickness.

The only approved guanfacine med (Intuniv ER) in my country is extremely overpriced and doesn't take insurance (I'm in the EU). I have ADHD and RSD and nothing seems to help the RSD side so I'm willing to try Guan.

I found IR guan online that's 8+ times cheaper but it's unfortunately IR, however it seems that it has the same half-life as ER and can be dosed once daily (correct me I'm wrong).

Has anyone tried it and does it help ADHD/RSD symptoms? Is it worth trying if it's IR and is once a day enough for IR?

I love this spotlight effect over a photo you can do in Premiere. The 🟣🔴🟠's can give the impression of neon billboards and cars passing behind the traditional Japanese window. That's a picture I took of Shibuya station a couple years back, the rain is stock. Man, I miss Tokyo.

If you're interested in checking out my game it's a hacking adventure sim that takes place in a kids bedroom in Shibuya. It's proto cyberpunk or retro cyberpunk, basically an alternate timeline the world had to be in order to become cyberpunk eventually.

Hi, I know nothing can really beat adhd medication from professional doctors but what would be worthy alternatives? I’m willing to pay.
