Took some of the Pramiracetam this morning, my first taste of a nootropic outside of 5-HTP. It was the worst tasting shit I ever tasted, it tasted like toxic waste, but I liked that because I knew it must be some potent stuff.
1 hour in I feel super jittery. I got some restless leg syndrome and was uncomfortable. I went to the gym asap to change my physiological state if you will. Let me tell you I was on absolute fire.
My brain never has worked this well. I was super focused.
A quick background on me: I am naturally very introverted, When I go to the gym I avoid people. I will go the machines where people aren't around. Just being in the proximity of strangers makes me very, very anxious. I have been a shut in for the past 2-3 years.

I was completely fine word-recall wise in a month tops, but it was still bizarre.

Interesting. I don't take it regularly. I leave it for times that I need a focus boost. I don't see it as an everyday racetam. Perhaps that's why it's so effective for me.
Every single time I take it, I get tingles that run from my frontal lobe down the center line of my head. It's like clockwork.
