Liftmode Phenylpiracetam - Depression / Mild Gaming Perspective

Everything about the packing was great as others have mentioned.
I'm relatively new to using Nootropics, and so far I've found that this works great. I took one scoop's worth (is it 150mg?) a day, mixed with L-Theanine and a cup of coffee. Typically when I sit down and do work, my head gets bugged down by thoughts that eventually get me too angry to focus on anything I'm doing, and then depressed. This causes me to have about a 20% time efficiency, leading to anxiety when I can't get my work done on time. Sometimes it gets bad enough for me to have to wake up at 3am (1-4 hours of sleep a night).
When I took this stack I still had these thoughts, but I was able to catch myself and clear my head easier. Thus I was finally able to finish my work. With lessened anxiety (I don't know if this was more from the L-Theanine or from the Phenlylpiracetam), what typically takes me an hour (20 pages of a school book) took me 20 minutes.
I also play tetris friends (username: azndvn), and typically I max out at around 70 lines. However, on my third game I took my max up to 87 lines. I've done 4 games now with close to 90 lines, but never quite surpassing that.
Great experience so far.

I apologize, I wasn't aware phenylpiracetam had any action in the dopamine system. Would you mind forwarding me your source on that?

It's behind a paywall:

The affinity of phenylpiracetam to the nicotinitic acetylcholine (nACh) receptor, but not the glutamate NMDA subtype, was demonstrated in ligandbinding experiments in vitro. However, injection of this drug (100 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) to rats increases the numbers of both nACh and NMDA receptors, but decreases serotonin and dopamine receptors in the brain tissue.
That's evidence of down-regulation.

The stimulating effect of Fenotropil manifested in its ability to provide a moderately pronounced effect on motor responses, to improve physical performance, expressed antagonism to the cataleptic action of neuroleptics, as well as in reducing the severity of ethanol and the hypnotic action of hexenal. Stimulating effect Fenotropil ideatornoy prevalent in the field. Fenotropil stimulates antibody production in response to the antigen, indicating that its immune-boosting properties, but at the same time, it does not contribute to the development of immediate hypersensitivity and does not alter the allergic inflammation of the skin caused by the introduction of foreign protein.
This is from the Russian Fenotropil instructions.
