Phenibut makes me restless

Neuro

Today, I took 600 mg of phenibut just to see what kind of effects it would have. It's been about 2 hours since I took it and I'm feeling quite restless and almost stimulated. Cognition is relatively the same as it was baseline. I feel no real mood improvement.

Motivation has improved slightly but it's hard to focus on a single task because of restlessness. The restlessness is mainly mental.

I'll reply to this post in a few hours just to keep a log of the effects.

I can still feel the phenibut in my system but it's like a rollercoaster in its effects. It's definitely not continuous. Sometimes I feel it, other times I feel nothing. It mainly manifests as slight dizziness and drowsiness in the eyes.

Phenibut at best feels pretty great, the anxiolysis is powerful and it gets you somewhat disinhibited and euphoric. When abused and at worst it's a rollercoaster to psychotic delirium. Personally I won't touch the stuff again but then again I didn't use it responsibly.

Yeah, it's pretty great when it works, but for me it only worked once out of maybe 6 times I've tried it. It had a noticeable effect on anhedonia and motivation too.

It wasn't even the first time I tried it, maybe the second or third time that it actually worked. No idea why it only works once in a blue moon.

When it doesn't work it just gives makes me somewhat dissociated, apathetic, and slightly dizzy.

But yeah it's one of those nootropics that requires moderation. Not sure if it's even appropriate to label it a nootropic considering its addictive nature in some people.
