A one month introduction to some basic nootropics, with dosages and sources.

Original post in this thread

[deleted] · 45 points

Hi guys,

I've been on some nootropics for about 4 months now, and I wrote the following up for a friend who is interested in trying. In short, this is the resource I wish I had when I got started. The goal with this is to give concrete dosages, and also provide a nootropic onset that really allows you to notice the effects of the drugs:

First, stop doing drugs, smoking and alcohol.

Remember - if at ANY TIME you feel shitty, stop. There should never be an "I feel bad period" with these drugs, that could mean your dosage is off or the drug just does not act well with you.

EVERYBODY on this site says ginkgo biloba is worthless but it has only done me extremely good with focus and depression and lots of things. They claim it causes cranial bleeding because it happened to one guy but gingko for the most part has been proven safe.

Piracetam seems to be everybody here's favorite but never tried it.

Bacopa I've been trying for three weeks with zero effects.

Is choline ok? I drink it in my brain toniq drink sometimes and it seems good.

As with everything, different sources and brands will vary in quality. Perhaps the lack of good responses is due to that. What supplier/brand do you use for ginkgo?
