Can anyone share experiences from taking memantine ALONE?

It's brutal. I bought the solution from Ceretropic after the tinnitus thread awhile back and tried taking everything from one drop to a full 10mg, there was very little difference. An immediate decrease in cognitive function, almost eliminated tinnitus, and a terrible "empty" feeling throughout my body. Gradually faded over the next couple days with the largest increases during sleep.
Not sure if I'm super sensitive to the compound or there was an accident during production of my solution (I kinda doubt it though, I've seen similar reports on Longecity, Bluelight, and here) or what, but there's no way I could use it through the breakthrough period of 1-2 weeks. Quite unfortunate, since nothing has affected my tinnitus in the same way except for recreational levels of 4-fluoroamphetamine.

Haha, there was no accident. I have made every batch of memantine that has gone out. I double and triple check numbers.
I too get the empty feeling now. It seems to have started when I began using nicotine. Now the NACh antagonism seems to hit me a lot harder than in a nicotine-naieve state. I am going to try going off nictoine for a few weeks, then starting back up slow on memantine, and see if that makes a difference. It's just not a good time to be adversely affected with things at the moment.
