ANIRACETAM. An analogue of the 1st discovered racetam Piracetam. It's a powerful nootropic which has both a calming effect yet gives a clear head too.
I would take either CDP Choline (citicoline) or Alpha GPC as a choline precursor rather than Choline bitartrate or DMAE as the later 2 or week, plus DMAE can worsen depression. I read that from several sources about DMAE worsening depression in bipolar patients but I'd stay clear from it anyway if you suffer any kinda depression. Without an acetylcholine precursor many nootropics can give side effects like headaches.Centrophenoxine is another acetylcholine precursor related to DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol aka dimethylethanolamine) but without the warning.
You may like to experiment with other Racetam nootropics. They are potent and useful in the right hands but beware, some are stimulating and may aggravate you condition. Other calming nootropics, other than Racetams are plentiful and you will find that the online stores that sell them provide excellent info, with references to help you choose. Why not give 'em a go. Save money by buying a cheap set of digi scales off eBay for accurate weighing.My pdoc knows I take them. And I take 120mg Nardil plus over 5 meds so I consider them safe.

Perhaps look for a forum that talks about nootropics, as nobody seems to mention them here.
Personally I take citicoline & Oxiracetam daily. I occasionally take Phenypiracetam or Pramiracetam, two of the most potent noots. Only when I'm procrastinating too much. They are strong, perhaps due to the MAOI. Be especially careful with Phenylpiracetam. Its a real psycho-stim. Again, maybe coz of the MAOI. Comparable to amphetamine, like taking PEA with an MAOI (not recommended!). Feels good though and I'm sure less dangerous.
OK no more nootropic talk. Why nobody here talks about them I dont know.
