What happens if you stop?

Original post in this thread

insaneInsult · 13 points

There's been very little research done on nootropics and cognitive enhancers in general, I'm not going to argue if it actually works or if it could all be a placebo. But, since we know so little on the scientific effects of nootropics, what happens when our minds becomes so accustomed to the chemical boost and then we stop taking them? Does the mind lose the ability to think rapidly or even lose the ability to focus on something without the chemical advantage?
I for one do not want to become dependent on a drug that could make me stupid(er) if I stop taking my regular dosage.

Not many people take as many different nootropics as I do

Now you've got me curious! What's your current daily stack, if you don't mind me asking?

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · Ceretropic

Today was:

* 100mg nefiracetam
* 10mg noopept
* 500mg ALCAR
* 150mg Na-R-ALA
* 500mg NALT
* 12.5mg ephedrine
* 100mg caffeine
* 1,000mg taurine
* 5g creatine monohydrate
* 500mg rhodiola
* 570mg ashwagandha
* 250mg bacopa
* 400mg SAMe
* 750mg trimethylglycine
* 2g magnesium glycinate
* 350mg DMAE
* 400mg EGCG
* 500mg quercetin

Then I had some tofu, strawberries, blackberries, and olive stuffed with peppers! I'm currently going a million miles a minute!

Any interest in a subredit for older nootropics users?

Replying to seb21051 · Understood. Morning after breakfast: 25mg Noopept, 150mg CDP Choline, 500mg ALCAR, 100mg Theanine, Coffee, 1g2 Fishoil, 65mg Ginko, Multivitamin. After Lunch: 25mg Noopept, 150mg C…

First I'll start with the nootropic stack. Noopept is good, but is going to take time to build up. I also think you need to lower your dose. 25mg is usually to high for most people on a regular basis. I take 15mg and th

Nefiracetam Day 1

I just received my order of nefiracetam from Newstarnootropics. I weighed out 100mg and decided to do a sublingual test. It is soluble in water, but not very much. This, mixed with the fact that the taste is not as palat

Then I would suggest attacking it from a more natural approach. Supplement L-phenylalanine for dopamine, and tryptophan for serotonin. You can have some NALT around for short term boosts of dopamine, as I find that to be

Noopept making me boring?

Replying to throwawaynootropics · Ok now that I know I'm not the only one I can switch back to /u/chyckun Also, how long do you break? And what do you do to replace them during that break?

Haha, no need for throwaways for something like this. Multiple people have said they have this effect. I took a month break, and now only take them occasionally. I replaced them with adaptogens like Bacopa, Rhodiola, As
