Thanks :)
> Yes and no. It is like a stimulant on demand. It doesn't feel like it is there unless you have a need for stimulation, and then the stimulation is present because the alpha-1 receptors are easily stimulated when needed, but not when not needed. Kind of like Viagra...it won't do anything without arousal. Will Viagra automatically make a man hard? Well, without stimulation, usually no. With stimulation, usually yes quite so.

> That's pretty much my experience with it as well as what is reported from most people who have used it for a least a couple or more months. It becomes invisible. But as you look around at yourself and compare to how you used to be months ago, it becomes obvious you have more energy and performance than you used to but you aren't aware it is drug-induced. Theory is that it is the alpha-1 receptors re-adapted to be more sensitive.That sounds GREAT!I'm very excited!
> I think most brands on the market are of good quality. Look for ones with specified amounts of the active ingredient. Look for capsules.I'll look for it now to have it handy when adrafinil arrives

> But again, the MAOI component makes all of this deserve respect and caution, especially in the early days/weeks. There is not enough research on the MAOIs to predict interactions or reactions with many substances, other than the obvious known ones. I personally do not see much risk here, but if it were me I would certainly approach with respect. For example the 75mg starting dose of Adrafinil.Yes, you are right I will be very cautious!
Will post about any success or failure here :)Have a nice weekend!!
