 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
Nah, I live in the good 'ole south. Just kidding, I live in white Suburbia. I hate rednecks.
Also, that was ♥♥♥♥ fun. The roller coasters weren't that much different, but I didn't stop talking, and I made like 8 new friends just from talking to random people next to me.

 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
I dont really do drugs, but i've been trying out some nootropics for school recently, and their really pretty amazing.
For those who don't know, nootropics are cognitive enhancing drugs with low toxicity.
I tried my first dose of Piracetam and Choline today, and its really great. Everything was just incredibly clear, just as if i had a huge ton of sleep the night before. I also felt that i was focused and could simply get things done quickly. Also, I found my mind and emotions were both much more placid and calm, not stirred by redundant thoughts unless I wanted them to be. Colors appeared slightly more vivid, sounds were clearer, and I tended to pay heightened attention to my surroundings. I think my fine motor coordination was upped, as playing guitar was much easier than for me then usual. Music sounds much better, you tend to be able to appreciate every bit of the song with your increased perception.
I took a bit too much Choline, so I had a mild stomach ache, but all in all, i would definitely use it on my finals.
Im going to try vinpocetine, which increases brain bloodflow, ill keep you posted on how it works.

 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
Thank you, lafe, for demonstrating to us why anecdotal evidence is bad. Piracetam takes, on average, 2 weeks before you start getting nootropic effects. But nootropics are cool, and they most certainly work, fun stuff to read about.

 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
I want to try some placebos.
edit: placebos referring to the fact that lafe reported great effects before the drug was suppose to act

Note: Piracetam is not a placebo.

I took a ♥♥♥♥ of Focalin (Dexmethylphenidate) a while back and I was high outta my mind. I would focus on one single thought for what seemed like hours but turned out only to be minutes.

 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
The time it takes for Piracetam to kick in varies between several hours to several weeks, depends on neurochemistry. Also, just added I'n the vinpoctine, it's a pretty great stack. Also, about the whole placebo argument, Ive had much more vivid dreams already, I doubt a placebo would do that.

Placebos can do a great deal of things which you wouldn't expect.

The human brain in general can fool your body into doing some freaky ♥♥♥♥. See mass hysteria as a good example.

 Re: Drugs 101, class is in session
You should update the OP with deliriousness and benzoids.
