Piracetam and dreams
Original post in this thread

Hi everybody. I've been taking piracetam for the last few week and have been quite pleased with the effects. I'm still experimenting with the dosage, but 2.4 g twice a day seems to be working great.
The only thing that I've noticed is that I have terrible, terrible dream recall now. I literally cannot remember a single thing that I've dreamt at night. Before starting piracetam, I had excellent dream recall, not only of the last dream before waking, but of the other ones throughout the night, and I could recall almost everything in great detail.
After some searches online, I've found mixed information about piracetam's effects on dreams.
I would like to know what the rest of you have experienced.
Thanks!

My dosage of piracetam is 1.6g 2-3x per day. I respond well to lower dosages.
That being said, any of the racetams increase dream recall for me. I am currently on noopept, and I have the funniest, weirdest dreams ever. Not in an abstract sense, just situationally weird. I just had one where my father and I were walking through the capitol building, but it looked more like the Amsterdam square library. While walking through, with my shirt off mind you, Obama walked up to a podium that I was standing by and started a speech. Suddenly there were hundreds of people sitting in the auditorium behind me. I'm shirtless 2 feet from president Obama making a speech, then the audio to the speakers cut out. I notice that he is using a wireless microphone, so I go up and start trying to fix the signal, while Obama just keeps talking even though nobody can hear him. After a minute or so, people get angry and start yelling. Obama gets upset and walks off, down a flight of stairs. Right as he leaves, I fix the microphone, but he is already gone...
Analyze that one for me!
But that was about a week ago, and it's still fresh in my mind. Before racetams, there is no way I would recall it in such detail. I can literally close my eyes and see exactly what I saw in my dream!
