  1. I took one 20 mg scoop of extract. I don't know how dense it is. Probably it's less than 200 ug, rather 50 to 100 ug at most. I will test it later.

    I combined it with my usual stack of supplements and nootropics including: l-theanine, alpha GPC, uridine and lion's mane 

    After an hour I feel that my that my field of view and overall perception is very wide (spherical perception). I also have mild tinnitus.

    @Username You probably are that, if you're making assumptions about people based on age.  Also, big deal, I look ten years younger than I am, too.

    I can only make assumptions if I don't talk about any specific person.

    People in general become less 'fresh' as they age. Unless they actively do something about that.

    He is just being a NiceGuy who doesn’t want to hurt older girls feelings by openly admitting that he prefers fresh young female flesh in their prime :) amirite

    @K Ghoul That's usually what it is.  Guys like young girls, it's just nature.
    That's why older guys approach young girls, I was young once, I remember all the old dudes following me around - it certainly wasn't for my personality.

    I'm over thirty but people often assume that I'm 20 yo (sometimes that I'm still teenager..). This also works in an opposite direction. If a female is 20+ it's often hard to shake the feeling that she is older than me.

    I'm not interested in dating anyone. Everyone will be rejected equally!

    The truth is, they don't care about you, they care about how you look and that is why they are going for you, when you are too young for them.  Older women become wiser, it is harder to treat a woman and get away with certain things, it's much easier to do this to a young girl.

    That's the cold hard truth.  It's not you, it's your looks, it never was about you as a person.  An individual.  This is just how men are.  That's reality.

    And I was 20 and thought I could trust him to know better for my own sake, considering how vulnerable and inexperienced I was. This is why I might be a bit bitter. 

    This is one reason why I'm not interested in females my age. If you had bad experiences you become bitter. Than instead of looking at me how I really am, you assume who I am based on your previous experiences. I'm not interested in dealing with this kind of drama. It's extremely off-putting.

    (Plus I look at least 10 years younger so people my age look like my grandparents :D)


  4. I usually take 4 capsules at once - each has 180 mg EPA, 120 DHA. I take it on before a meal or with a meal that doesn't have much omega 6. This way omega 3 should be absorbed better. It's 4000 mg of fish oil but capsules are on the lower side of EPA/DHA content.  It is advised to take only one a day, but some other brand (same amount EPA and DHA) suggest taking two.

    Is that too much..? 9_9


  5. I recently had my fourth breakthrough on 5 MeO DMT. I'm not counting previous unsuccessful attempts before vaping. I was barely able to convince myself to do that again - I guess mostly because of vaping. I noticed the longer the time between trips the more resistance. Every time just after tripping I would feel fine about doing it again.

    It wasn't bad but I wouldn't call it pleasant. It definitely wasn't a bad trip, I felt almost neutral about my experience. My thoughts during trip were along the lines:

    "I can't escape. There is only existence. I will always be where I am. There is no difference in structure between my life and what is happening now. Ordinary life is easier to handle because it's happening slowly. Now I can come back."

    Do you enjoy the moment of tripping? How many times it takes to really enjoy it? All of my LSD trips were pleasant but 5 MeO feels just too fast and overwhelming.

    Can you maintain your insights, god realization, non-duality, ones and more facets to awakening, after sober up from psychedelics? 

    Ultimately there are no insights to gain. You can't experience lack of illusion and illusion at the same time - that's why you can't maintain nonduality. What happens is your really becomes less solid.

    Can you experience it WITHOUT any substances?

    Yes, I can experience 5 MeO DMT without using the substance. That's because this is just my excuse to experience God. It's suprisingly easy, I'm not advanced at all.

    Do you have 100% certainty that your trip is real, or it's just some drug induced hallucination ? And how do you know? 

    I disbelieve and forget who I am, but each time I trip I'm getting closer and closer.


  7. @DManKee I mostly listen to youtube too. I think main benefit from reading is developing focus - it's almost like meditation. I like audio format because I can listen while doing chores or riding a bike. Podcast format is more 'raw' than books and it can give better understanding what person really thinks. Conversations are really good in this regard. Books are lacking in nonverbal communication.

    I believe the content of L-Theanine in tea is very very low. I recall it is like 15mg per teabag of green tea or something like that (don't recall the exact amounts) Maybe double for black tea. In research, they usually go up to 1000mg to get some interesting effects. 

    I find green tea slightly stimulating but the effect goes away fairly quickly where with coffee the effects lasts longer but it sometimes makes me more impulsive. Haven't drunk black tea for a long time but may give it a shot again for comparison. 

    Black tea has more l-theanine. Google says it has 25 to 60 milligrams per 200 ml. I drink rather strong tea so it might be 60 or more for me. I also used l-theanine in a powder form. Dose of a 200 mg was enough to give me feeling of slow motion mode ^_^

    Does that actually make a difference to the taste? Never tried using filters

    I don't think that there is an obvious difference. One coffee may taste so different one from another that it makes hard to spot the difference caused by filter.

    Theanine has the opposite effect from coffee. It is calming and (at least theoretically) should give you the stable level of focus and energy without the spike but personally, I've never felt any effects from even going up to 1000 mg and that was a highly reputable brand with a clean product so I dunno....

    Don't you feel a difference between coffee and black tea? Black tea has small amount of l-theanine. I feel like tea acts much softer (however it might be also because of volume), coffee is harsh and I feel instant dirty excitation.


  10. I recommend using paper filters, especially if you are fasting (slower metabolism) and especially if you are drinking decaf :P

    You can cut them yourself with a proper sized circle cutter. In my case it's impossible to buy proper size for my espresso machine and moka. I use brown bamboo towels as a filtering material. I put 4 layers of towel and one A4 sheet of paper (to make cutting easier).


  11. @Fearless_Bum I always buy in powdered form because you can save a lot of money. Costs add up because I use MANY supplements. In this case I bought more that I need (dumb decision). Small 50 g bag for $15 is 2500 doses, so it's almost for free.

    I usually use capsule filler. In some cases you can save ~$200 per day of listening podcasts.

    Another option is storing powders in boxes with dedicated spoons. This way you can quickly mix them with your shake.


  12. @Gregory1 I will not, I don't trust item descriptions from aliexpress 9_9

    @Fearless_Bum Yes, I got Huperzia Serrata.

    I think I got it. 99% extract means that it's 99% pure. However it doesn't mean there are no additives. Sadly most sellers do not mention that.

    I found an offer on alibaba, this is what you can get:

    Product Description

    Ratio: 4:1~20:1 ;

    1%,5%,99% Huperzine A

     

    It should be safe to assume that what I got is 1% at most. I also doubt that I got something even weaker because it's not something typically sold.

    Finally, here is a label from Huperzine A:

    It means that if I consume 20 mg of powder I am getting 200 mcg of Huperzine A. It would be wiser to buy a powder with more accurate label. However I found another one that is 1% and it costs exactly the same, so it's unlikely that mine is more concentrated.
