I've got a bit of a wine collection as well, and at the moment I can't imagine giving up drinking. Up to half a bottle of wine seems to help me relax after work in the evening.<br /><br />GB xxxGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046768019709916759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-40271285554077041092015-11-02T04:45:12.145+00:002015-11-02T04:45:12.145+00:00I've not tried that one, but many other brain ...I've not tried that one, but many other brain drugs in the past to help speed along healing after my brain injury.<br /><br />Now, I take nothing, but sitting down daily to meditate, which has produced far greater results than any drug, plus coming to the wisdom that I am happy without drinking....and I used to have a good collection of wine, but never to excess. <br /><br />if you keep the idea that there is something outside of yourself that will make you happier, you are chasing the carrot until you die.<br />Was Oncehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15787588883235992471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-29703540913908210152015-10-30T12:10:48.307+00:002015-10-30T12:10:48.307+00:00Fair enough.

As long as you're going into it with your eyes open (if you go into it at all), that's all I can ask! <br /><br />I'm surprised myself that that was 2 years ago!

That "questionable behaviour" post was 2 years ago. Because I blog so little these days, I didn't think that I had any long term readers left!<br /><br />At the moment it's all hypothetical. If boyfriend K does buy any, I guess I'll assess the situation given all the variables at the time, including the effect on him.<br /><br />And if anyone else has read this far, I'm still interested in anyone who's taken this or anyone who knows someone who has :-).<br /><br />GB xxxGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046768019709916759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-38188055850353270862015-10-29T10:51:37.857+00:002015-10-29T10:51:37.857+00:00Oh dear, I was afraid something like that might ha...Oh dear, I was afraid something like that might happen (that's what I meant by "let yourself be persuaded"!) So this drug is supposed to act like a stimulant. Supposing K does buy it "under the counter", but what he buys turns out to be a different stimulant of a less legal and more dangerous nature, how would you know the difference?<br /><br />Remember your "questionable behaviour" post about K using a fake identity based on other people's photos as a way of getting people to send him compromising pictures through a hook-up app, including people whose real identities he knew - a situation he described as "quite funny" (though I imagine it wasn't funny for them!) And now you say you might be tempted to let the same man give you a drug of unknown origin, after he put the idea into your head? <br /><br />As a concerned randomer who wishes you well :) I'm just pointing out that taking unknown substances from people whose behaviour hasn't always been beyond reproach, shall we say, isn't necessarily a good idea, however tempting it may seem. Not being able to concentrate on work sometimes is called being human, why take a risk like this over it?

Somehow I can't see a GP handing you a prescription for that reason... And studies of new drugs can't tell us what they will do over the very long term, precisely because they have only been developed recently. <br /><br />Anyway, if you're going to take it, I am sure you're smart enough to acquire it through the proper channels and you won't let yourself be persuaded to buy it "under the counter" or over the Internet, where you won't know for a fact what's in it...

But these days I sometimes find that it's hard to focus on some tasks that I have to do, and it looks like Modafinil should help with that kind of thing. If the studies say it's not addictive, and if it's not illegal, and if it helps students focus on their exams, isn't it worth trying?<br /><br />GB xxxGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046768019709916759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10667700.post-44649395637701959052015-10-28T23:41:11.429+00:002015-10-28T23:41:11.429+00:00Do you suffer from any sleep disorders, GB?
