What people say about Piracetam and mood
“The effects were wonderful, they still are to me-- verbal fluidity, increased motivation, quicker thinking, better recall, pro social, wake up in the morning with ZERO grogginess.”
“Then out of nowhere, after 6 months (approx) usage, Piracetam stopped working. It didn't do anything other than make my brain feel weird and me stupid.”
“I took an attack dose yesterday of 10g and had trouble falling asleep resulting in like 5 hours of sleep.”
“I felt like I was making better, faster subconscious decisions, and my reaction times were faster than before.”
