Any long term (6+ months) daily users of Racetams or other Nootropics out there? Care to post your stories?

I'm curious about the long term effects of these substances and stacks. If you have been using Noots for a while now and would like to post the good and the bad or even just that nothing went wrong after long term use I encourage you to do so.
I would love to edit this post and document people's case studies with these substances, I see tons of first time experiences but no long term experience posts here or on other sites.

Side note on driving. When I'm on noopept, hup a and assorted other noots for my morning drive, my fuel efficiency increases (I drive a hybrid, so I pretty much get both constant and over time feed back on mpg). Also in video games I tend to do much much better (if anyone plays LoL, I tend to increase my CS as an adc by 10-20 in a 10 min period).

Haha, I'm the opposite. On racetams, I can get through traffic like a professional driver. I treat the distributions and patterns of cars as a puzzle. I know exactly how fast each person is going relative to the others, as well as the increasing or decreasing space. I analyze the hand, head, and eye movements of the other drivers, as well as tire movements to determine how the puzzle is going to change. I guess it saves gas too, since I never hit my breaks. I can keep my momentum working for me, as well as save travel time!
