What nootropic can you cycle l-theanine with?

I really like how l-theanine makes you feel so calm and allows you to think clearly under pressure - it doesn't make your mind all fuzzy. I've used it a fair bit before but have noticed that you develop a tolerance to it very fast, so I would like to cycle it with something else that has a similar effect but has no cross-tolerance with it i.e. using one noot does not increase tolerance of the other.
What do you guys recommend for this?

Yeah, l-theanine can do that to me sometimes. I think a certain amount of stress is good for motivation, and since l-theanine greatly reduces the intensity of any stress it can't be good for motivation!
Do you try l-theanine and bacopa at the same time or do you cycle between them?

I am currently taking L-theanine and bacopa at the same time. The past 3 weeks I was taking both, plus noopept and oxiracetam. The full combo was working very well. I just wanted to have a week to cycle off and see if there were any changes in effects. There were! The motivation was lost.
