What people actually say

“Paraxanthine has completely replaced caffeine for me personally. Research it, it's a caffeine metabolite.”

“I'd suggest trying CalmAid (silexan) - it has evidence for anxiety, it's non-sedating, works within ~15 minutes and doesn't have the risk of the common alternatives.”

“And they've been utterly amazing. I can think clearly now. I didn't even realize how much anxiety was plaguing me.”

“I'd drop the SJW and go with CalmAid (Silexan) since it actually has specific evidence for anxiety and does not interact with at least one type of oral contraceptive pill.”

“If you're looking for something else to try for anxiety, I'd recommend CalmAid...Works within 15 minutes...Most people dose once per day as needed.”

“CalmAid has been great for me for anxiety without any negative cognitive side effects of note.”

“Literally 80% of my anxiety and depression went away when I stopped having all allergens (in my case wheat, soy, dairy).”

“I've tried removing gluten and milk (helped temporarily)”

“My brain fog didn't completely go away until I cut out wheat, potatos and tomatos.”

“I cut out all added Sugars, processed/preserved foods, pork, & fried foods. I found eliminating grains helped a bunch.”

“Elimination diets are really the only things that make sense to me: figure out your own niche foods.”

“This CAN be solved with diet. No flour, sugar (including fruit), alcohol, nightshades... Whenever I slip from the anti-inflammation diet my psoriasis goes crazy. While Im adhering to it my skin is perfect.”

“Every time I eat dark chocolate, I get loads of energy, my brain feels clearer, I feel more sociable and it's almost a kind of giddy feeling, just warm and lifts my mood so well it's incredible.”

“I was eating Lindt Excellence's dark chocolate bar ... it gave me the most random anxiety attack shortly after.”

“It improves my sleep because I feel better the next day.”

“When I had long-COVID, even dark chocolate was improving my eye sight somewhat.”

“I just eat Greek yogurt, dark chocolate, and various pickled veggies instead of taking a probiotic supplement.”

“100% dark chocolate after my workout (serious mood booster; highly recommend)”

“When I gave dexmethylphenidate and bupropion a shot after getting diagnosed with ADHD... all my depression symptoms disappeared”

“I felt anxious, had headaches, lost sleep and appetite, and overall felt like it made my ADHD worse.”

“It took a long time to feel ok again, even now I'm not sure I do. It definitely damaged my dopamine system.”

“Prescription meds (Focalin) have been what I can tolerate but only if I take like one or two a week. I get really faint feeling if I take too much of any stimulant.”

“the first dose made me pass out for 5 hours...felt like I had a lobotomy”

“I'm already on both Vyvanse and Focalin (legally of course), but I've built such a high tolerance to them that they're just not very effective anymore.”

“I've taken every type of ADHD drug they make practically, (Vyvanse, Adderall, Focalin, and Ritaln) with minimal effects”

“This is one of my favorite Nootropics too, mix with EGCG and ALCAR makes a very good stack!”

“today is my first day trying pyritinol. At first it made me unable to concentrate and jumpy. But currently my brain is abuzz with motivation and interest.”

“I experimented with another pyritinol again today, but with no coffee or other chemicals, and I had exactly the same symptoms as before. Clearly it doesn't like me.”

“The Pyritinol knocks me out and make my urine smell horrible”

“This gave me intense migraines and insomnia, yet it got all my friends high and helped one of them focus.”

“It literally nuked my anxiety within 15 minutes, that's pretty amazing!”

“I did try the selegiline + PEA combo and it was slightly euphoric but not really very fun.”

“I think some people like the effects of Phenethylamine, but for me, it was way too much. I was probably freaking out for a solid half-hour”

“I also use phenylethylamine which I respond very well to.”

“I have been a lot more confident in general after taking Phenibut or phenylethylamine”

“Phenylethylamine Hcl has done wonders for me and a little caffeine”

“i tried BSO + jiaogulan yesterday and i was very surprised - i never felt so aware in my life”

“Jiaoglan gave me the concentration that i needed - stims never helped me at all... Jiaoglan's effect is different to caffeine. the closest feeling i could relate to would be a short acting modafinil”

“I'm also taking Jiaogulan which has similar benefits, although I think Ashwagandha is more effective for me.”

“I tend to think more along the lines of... Jiaogulan, Oxaloacetate, Nicotinamide Riboside...”
