Got an impressive shipment of various racetams yesterday and today is day II of experimenting with all of them. Took quite a variety today, then about two hours ago I gook pramiracetam. I just woke up in my bed. I don't remember going to sleep. Anyone experience anything similar?

I took quite a bit of racetams today for my second day experimenting (previous experience only with phenylpiracetam). I started with 11mg Sunifiram early in the AM, about three hours later 800mg Oxiracetam, several hours later 515mg Nefiracetam, then several hours later 30mg Noopept, then finally 333mg Pramiracetam. Then I guess I got unbelievably tired (I remember feeling tired) then passed out for an hour and a half. I don't remember getting into bed. Was I just fatigued from other things, or could my copious consumption of nootropics have played a role in this? I feel great now, so I'm not too worried. It was still a bit surprising waking up.
I did only get seven hours of sleep last night, and I'm used to 8-9 hours. I also started lifting weights again yesterday, and I started taking creatine yesterday. Maybe I was genuinely fatigued and nootropics played no role in this.
Again, I'm not particularly worried, all vitals seem normal and have been all day. I have been known to have a "nap attack" now and then, so it could have just been an intense one of those.

Really? I wasn't aware. How is that the case, ATP needs to be generated through sugars/fats/proteins, doesn't it?

Carbs must first be hydrolyzed to simple sugars, and fats metabolized to fatty acids before they can be used to create ATP. The rate in which that happens depends on many factors. Not all of your calories goes directly to ATP. There could be small differences in that metabolic process that leads to massive inconsistencies. Take people who gain weight easily. They can consume the same amount of calories as someone with a fast metabolism, but will end up storing most of it rather than using it.
