It seems most racetams make numb my emotions to the point where it's unbearable, even at fairly low doses. Anything I can do other than not take them?

I have not done a double-blind placebo test yet so there could be other factors, but for the sake of this question, let's imagine it is the racetams doing this. I'll order them from most emotionally-numbing to least:

Nefiracetam

Oxiracetam

Noopept

Pramiracetam

Aniracetam

Sunifiram

Phenylpiracetam

I still take aniracetam daily because, while it does dull excitement and whatnot, it enhances my average mood. The others do not (except phenylpiracetam, that's a fantastic mood-enhancer IMO). Are there any ideas why this happens/what I could do to make it not happen? I've used choline bitartrate and DMAE as a choline source. No effects on this feeling from either. Throw ideas at me!

Why Bacopa twice daily?

That's the recommended dosage.

Discrepancy of study outcomes and anecdotal evidence - how much of nootropic effect is placebo?

The evidence is going to be skewed toward the older, and arguably safer, substances. Piracetam and Bacopa are going to be subtle in any healthy person. However, they are going to help people with deficits that they might

If you want to for the memory effects, but not to combat the toxicity. Florescent lights have small amounts of mercury in them. So that's your main worry with exposure in the warehouse you are working. Mercury will cause
