> Well first off thanks for the welcome and the feedback, I've been pokin around the boards a bit and there is a LOT of great subjective and objective info in this forum, very helpful stuff.

> I've been taking the Cyprenil for less than a week so far (not anywhere near enough time to notice significant effects according to most others who've taken it) but I took it with a meal the first 3 days and on an empty stomach the last 3 days, and I can't say I notice much difference, though I suppose it would be nearly impossible to notice immediately since there's such a delayed effect with this type of drug. I'm looking forward the big memory/focus boost at the end of week 3 that a few of you have reported, and even more so to the anti-depressant effects around week 5-6. I'll definitely keep up the daily dosing until at least then and keep you all posted on results, thoughts, etc.

> In the meantime, throughout Week One I've noticed a strange calmness, a cool (as in not quite cold, but almost) detachment and objectivity about things in general. Definitely don't feel numb or anything, just a little more calculating, like I get an extra second or two to think about things before I have to feel them. Also, I haven't really been getting tired at night, but whenever I decide that it's late and I "should" go climb into bed and attempt sleep, I don't seem to mind just laying there and thinking until I doze off, even if it takes awhile (normally I'm stir crazy and avoid climbing into bed till I'm absolutely exhausted, or I have to read a book or talk to someone till I doze off). Odd, certainly, but none of these are strong effects (yet) so we'll see where this goes.

> FYI - I'm taking 7 drops (mg) under my tongue around 9am and 7 more drops around 3pm, and mostly sticking to the MAOI diet just in case (not all that difficult since I'm pretty much a vegan, though avoiding soy sauce has proven interesting).

> Thanks again!Anyone have any idea how much of the deprenyl is absorbed under the tongue? If there is a high conversion rate you could use the liquid as an AD and get mao-a inhibition. I hated the patch as you only have three sizes and they left big blotches and was just inconvenient. With the drops you can titrate more conviently.
