also shoutout to @
for a lot of the stack etc
Goals: motivation, consistency, long-term brain performance, focus, studying, mood, energy, memory, consistency, etc
🌿 Bromantane — 12–25 mg (morning)
motivation, less resistance, stable drive, break out of rut, wanting to work + no sleep issues
☕ Paraxanthine — 100–200 mg
alertness, reaction speed, light boost - 3-4 hr half life
😴 Magnesium glycinate — 400 mg (night)
deep sleep, recovery, neuroplasticity
🧂 Creatine — 5*–20 g - higher dose if missed sleep (morning)
ATP production, memory, energy, etc
☕ Paraxanthine — 100–200 mg
alertness, reaction speed, light boost - 3-4 hr half life
⚡ Modafinil — 50-100 mg (early morning)
intense focus, sustained attention - cons: effects sleep - half life 12-15hrs
☕ Paraxanthine — 100–200 mg
alertness, reaction speed, light boost - 3-4 hr half life - dont do a high dose + modafinil
⏱️ Take: preferably early(insane half life)
whats your experience with modafinil
i use 50mgs moda daily atm, i think its a great longevity stimulant, as in i can lock in all day with that small dose. however for pure stimulation and in the moment focus i actually prefer paraxanthine or KW. where modafinil really shines though is its wakefulness promoting effects, 200mg modafinil after 2 hours sleep will have you feeling like youve had 6.
wtf are you saying paraxanthine gives you more boost than modafinil ?
yes it is more motivating, modafinil is more wakefulness
really? def interesting, caffeine doesnt rlly do shit for me, do u think paraxanthine will still have this effect? I was expecting the opposite, parxanthine a quick energy boost and modafinil motivation
modafinil has been overly grifted as the "limitless pill"
thanks nigga, i never heard of paraxanthine apparently this is what caffeine gets metabolised to so taking this is pretty much the same as taking caffeine but its more bioavailable and just easier to consume. I do think modafinil is still gonna mog the shit out of it in every single aspect even tho they have different mechanism of action, at the ned of the day paraxanthine isj ust a fucking supplement.
Paraxanthine and caffeine are different, but they both have almost 100% oral bioavailibility, thats not what makes paraxanthien superior. What makes paraxanthine good is that its much more selective for A2A than caffeine which has a much higher affinity for A1 and some other motherfuckers which cause anxiety, so you can dose paraxanthine much higher without anxiety. A2A is also by far the superior receptor as it creates a heterodimer with the D2 receptors, so A2A antagonism results in D2 receptors becoming much more sensitive kind of like positive allosteric modulation.
KW-6356 (ultra-selective insurmountable A2A antagonist) mogs both of them the issue is just the rape half life, easily reverisble with DORAs though.
also you got any advice on how to not fuck my sleep with modafinil since 50% will still be in my system at sleep no matter what time I take it
tbh i dont struggle sleeping on moda at all (around 11pm) when i only do 50mg at around 8am, 100mg does delay sleep onset a bit though, although even 50mg likely does interfere with sleep architecture (although i dont think significantly).
any orexin antagonist would perfectly do the job (only sleep drug that dosent fuck up architecture), seltorexant is good for sleep onset as it has a short half life which means you dont get next day grogginess, lemborexant has a much longer half life and can cause next day grogginess but is more powerful and will have you asleep all night (and should compeletly recover sleep architecture due to being active all night)
lemborexant is likely favourable when you are using modafinil as modafinil upregulates CYP3A4, which is also the enzyme which metabolises lemborexant so the enxt day grogginess is much less of an issue.
personally havent tried yet, just ordering it today, interesting to hear ricecels experience, ill lyk how it compares to paraxanthine
good stack bhai
Mid ngl
what would u recommend
