LOW dose phenylethylamine for social phobia

Posted by Diego55 on December 2, 2009, at 0:31:06

Hi guys, I am considering trying selegiline with PEA in very low dose of 60-100 mg daily. I am suffering from social anxiety and I am trying to come up with this combo for using in exposure therapy of social situations.

My goal is slight mood lifting, motivation, and being a bit more talkative. I'll be very careful, I'll keep the dosage low. My goal is not to get a high off it.

I am considering on using 2.5 mg of selegiline, 2-3 times a week 60-100 mg of PEA daily.

What do you think about It ?

Well I've read of very good results with that combo. Pea has stimulant properties. You must watch your dose so you don't get a hypertensive crisis.Personally I've used 5 mg selegiline with 500 mg l-phenylalanine with good results but rather speedy. I think what this type of combo lacks is the soothing quality of serotonin that maois give.

Where do you get the PEA? Is it over-the-counter?

Is the PEA useless without an MAO-I? (I see wikipedia says the half-life of PEA is about 5 minutes!)

you need the selegiline for it to stay active. Can be purchased over the innternet.

the main problem of PEA selegiline combo is too short time of duration of combo effect(maybe 15-30 minutes).

How can I to extend the duration of combo effect ?

l-phenyalanine selegiline lasts all day for me. Sometimes can't sleep at night.

Hi-

I'm trying to safely add Phenylethylamine to my Selegiline but I can only find 250 mg and 500 mg capsules. I know at this dose it can be dangerous. Does anyone know where you can find doses that are 60mg or less? I'm having a really hard time finding any. thanks.
