I can understand and relate to people in a "real world" sense and "speak to them on their level". As for cognitive symptoms it increases my ability to write, comprehend and understand things. When you take it it gives you a feeling of energy and mental clarity and increased creative ability but in a real world sense. While I was tirating it if I represented someone for Social Security hearings which was part of my work then I would be better able to get through them and understand how to approach the judges and win. I know not everyone will get this level of recovery but I have and I am explaining it factually without exageration. What is more interesting in taking it what I realize "isn't there", delusions, grandiosity, passive aggressive behavior, self destructive urges that I didn't even realize what they were before the glycine. The difference between glycine and dopaminergic agents is night and day.

Well I believe that's above the study dosage and I did notice someone who had posted here in 2003 who said they took that dosage and got sick. If its working for you that makes sense though. You are taking it with some supervision of a psychiatrist right? I am trying to find out what's going on with that because if many people are taking it without a psychiatrist's supervision I want to let my psychiatrist know because other psychiatrists should consider supervising it and if its helped people in some regard then using it. If I am the only one its helped out of study that won't mean much as I start to do testimony within the APA (my psychiatrist already let me write to the chairperson from my non profit) but if its helping other people even with some symptoms it shows its something they should put into clinical practice.
