Introduction
I was just curious about trying it despite the warnings other people had mentioned. I feel like they were largely exaggerated, at least at this dose. Moderate experience with drugs and a wide variety of stimulants. 13:00 (T0:00) - Ingested 10mg orally using cellulose capsule. I had eaten a bit prior, though only a modest amount. 13:23 (T0:23) - I feel noticable tingles but nothing major. Could be placebo. 13:45 (T0:45) - I am definitely feeling the stimulation. Very mild euphoria. My movement feels stiff and not smooth. I feel quite bodily stimulated but not very mentally stimulated that brings executive function (or playing video games isn't helping inm this regard) 14:53 (T1:53) - It has rounded out and I'm alot more mellow. 15:03 (T2:03) - I yawned... yeah this is closer to dexamphetamine now. 15:10 (T2:10) - Music enhancement noticable. Visages - Yalda is a very nice drum and bass song. 15:14 (T2:14) - Singing along with a song okayyyy. Yeah music is a vibe. 15:24 (T2:22) - Started working on my project. I'm jamming to music. The task proceeds as it should. 15:58 (T2:58) - Tested blood pressure, 111/73 mmHg, 81 bpm. About the same as baseline. 19:10 (T6:10) - It took me like 10 mins to get up to start walking to the grocery store. At least I did it but its not super easy for my actions to match my brain's requests. Better than absolutely no stimulant, but worse than dexamphetamine. Still feel stimulated significantly. 19:25 (T6:25) - I feel a lot more self concious, more... judged? paranoid? when I'm on the street. Like I have eyes on me. I can't really drown out these thoughts. This also happens with dexamphetamine though. 19:53 (T6:53) - It feels like movements are conscious 20:13 (T7:13) - Had dinner, food tasted fine. 21:22 (T8:22) - The effects are settling down. 22:40 (T9:40) - I wanted to get up 40 minutes ago to do something and procrasinated the entire time. Gonna do it now but damn there is no executive function remaining. Stimulation getting even milder. 00:30 (T11:30) - I feel some residual stimulation but most of the effects have subsided. I shower. 03:30 (T14:30) - Been talking to a friend about a bunch of stuff, slowly getting more tired. Maybe some slight body stimulation remaining around my chest but no mental stimulation I think. I feel a bit drained but pretty usual. 04:14 (T15:14) - I am crashing HARD. I can barely make sense of things I'm reading. I need to sleep. 11:25 (T22:25) - I wake up still feeling extremely sluggish. 12:23 (T:23:23) - I get up from bed and get my day going. Summary: It feels quite akin to dexamphetamine but longer with worse executive function than it. Greater music enhancement in comparison to dexamphetamine. Less appetite suppression, less dry mouth, less perspiration. Much more taxing at the end. General rating, B+. Would do again but not one of my favourites. Much below 2-FMA (A+) for functionality or 3-FA (A+) recreationally, though maybe higher doses would change that. Same tier as lisdexamphetamine (B+) for me. 1 step below dexamphetamine (A). I can see it being fun for a festival though.
